[Fredslist] Just do it!

[Jack Halpern]

Thank you for your kind words. Yesterday's Diversity/Gotham Joint  
Lunch was a truly great event. We had forty five attendees between  
members, guests, and circuit riders. Fred did an amazing job keeping  
things moving along. Everyone had a chance to present what they do and  
we had a five minute spotlight from Robert Politzer (Gotham Green) and  
Sheila Hartwell (Diversity). The atmosphere and camaraderie in the  
room was amazing. Thanks to Fred we finished at 1:55 P.M.,but most  
people stayed till 2:45 PM to talk, network and to do some business or  
set up appointments.

Riding the circuit is a great benefit of Gotham Membership. It is very  
rewarding socially and is great for your business. Joint meeting are  
also a perfect opportunity to network with some great people. I thank  
Fred Klein, Isidro Otis, Kelly Welles,
Gail Koelin, and Glen Friedman for making this event great.

Warm wishes,

Jack
