IMPORTANT: Setting up a test Zoom meeting on 3/16!

Dear Monica, Due to the new guidelines that Snohomish County has instituted to restrict gatherings of 250 and fewer people, we are considering moving our meetings to virtual meetings instead. Please read the information regarding the new guidelines from Snohomish County: https://lynnwoodtoday.com/snohomish-health-district-issues-its-own-orders-related-to-covid-19-and-smaller-gatherings/ I am happy to work with Shawn O'Donnell's on the social distancing issue as that is really the only problem I see with our room set up that we normally do. However, we might be forced to cancel anyway since we currently only have 12 people registered for our March 23rd meeting. Tracey has been kind enough to let me borrow her Zoom account to test out using it for our virtual meetings. Please join us for our test meeting on Monday March 16th at 6:45pm (see info below) and if we can make it work, I will set up a Zoom for our March 23rd meeting. I will be monitoring the situation on a weekly basis to see which meetings will be in person and which ones will be virtual. Before I upgrade my Zoom account, I would like to come up with a plan on how we can use Zoom on a more regular basis even after this crisis passes. I would love your ideas on how we could incorporate virtual meetings to our schedule. We had talked about creating some sort of mastermind meeting but that never materialized. Or maybe we expand our "Discussion Topic" time to a separate virtual meeting? Let me know your thoughts! Tracey Warren is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Yes, we are meeting on Monday!

Dear Monica, We have 20 RSVPS for Monday's meeting!! I am so grateful for all of you in this group. I have discussed the situation with Nicole (our speaker) about the current outbreak status. We both agree to move forward with this meeting. We are a small gathering of ladies and many of us are not in the demographic that COVID-19 seems to affect. Of course, if you are over 60, pregnant or have pre-existing health conditions that  concern you, please stay home. Also, if you have a fever and a dry cough, seek medical attention right away. We will have free sanitizing hand wipes for all who attend. Life is not stopping. Take the necessary precautions. Wash your hands and cover your cough with your elbow. Jazz hand greetings instead of handshakes. Boost your immune system with vitamin c, elderberry and whatever supplements you prefer. Much love to you all and see you on Monday night! RSVP or Update Your RSVP ~Monica~

February H2H Newsletter (I know it is March!)

Heart to Heart Meeting Reminders for the month of February HEART TO HEART MONTHLY NEWSLETTER For February 2020 Hi Monica,  Well, well, well. Another late newsletter. I was supposed to send this out last month! One of these days I will be more regular. ;) We have had several things decided at our meetings over the last few months. It is important to show up to our meetings because we are making decisions on items and the people who show up get to help decide!  I am still experimenting with our extra 8 mins for our meetings. I am trying to keep a rotating schedule for the DISCUSSION TOPICS. On the 2nd Monday we will alternate between a MEMBER LEAD TOPIC and LEADER LEAD TOPIC. Then on the 4th Monday we will have a 3rd Spotlight Table available.  Our next meeting we have a Speaker coming to help us Detangle Your Digital Office. It will now cost our paid members $5 to attend and guests $10 to attend. We need 3 more RSVPs to move forward and I will decide by Wed if that will happen or not.  I have planned a great event coming up on Sept 20th! I have booked a suite at the Storm game in Everett. It is a great way to network and get to know each other. Watching the game is optional. Let me know if there is another networking group we can partner with to maximize the event! Finally, I have made some updates to our Facebook Group where we have split out the monthly dedicated posts. One will be for sharing events and a separate one for posting your latest sale or promotion. If you have more than 3 sales/promos posts, we encourage you to invite people to join your mailing list or FB group. ~Monica~ Learn More: Member Dues Learn More: Member Perks

January H2H Newsletter

Heart to Heart Meeting Reminders for the month of January HEART TO HEART MONTHLY NEWSLETTER For January 2020 Hi Monica,  Happy New Year! I didn't send out a newsletter last month and I am late sending this month's out too. Typical! So anyway, last month I experimented with a few different formats for our meetings now that we have trimmed our introduction time. Which format did you like best? Open Topic Discussion Guided Topic Discussion Extra Spotlight Table Unfortunately, we had to cancel our Jan 13th meeting which was our Holiday Party but I have moved the party to replace our Jan 27th meeting. Your RSVP on our website has been moved to the new date so please update your RSVP if you cannot make it on the 27th. I will refund anyone who needs to be.  On our Facebook Group, please check out the poll to see when we should plan our next Storm outing to watch the women's basketball game. I purchase a 20-person suite and the cost is less than a regular ticket to the game. It is a great way to network and get to know each other. Watching the game is optional.  Finally, I am moving forward with our Bunco Night on Feb 6th. Thank you for your interest and hopefully we can get enough people to play! I will need a minimum of 16-20 people to make it worthwhile. Please RSVP and pay for your spot! ~Monica~ Learn More: Member Dues Learn More: Member Perks

Jan 13th Meeting Cancelled (will move to Jan 27th)

Dear Monica, Our meeting tonight on Jan 13th has been cancelled due to the snow. School is closed today for my kids so it is best we cancel for tonight. I know it got a little confusing as my auto email reminders went out before I could change everything. The meeting for Jan 13th has been MOVED to Jan 27th. This is because it is our holiday party meeting and there are payments involved so it is easier to change the meeting date than to start all over again. If you RSVP'd to the Jan 13th meeting and cannot attend the Jan 27th meeting, please let me know. I will refund anyone who paid. The original event for Jan 27th has been archived but you might have received an email to RSVP that now no longer works. This is why. I will also send a text message to all our registered members *IF* a cell phone number was provided. This is one of the reasons why it is important for everyone to have a free membership and keep your profile on our website updated. Stay safe out there! ~Monica~
