Successes, thoughts, ideas, changes:

IT WAS A GREAT SUCCESS

  1. Prizes – email winners and let them know they have 30 days to pickup at Breckenridge Brewery
  2. Over 125 in attendance for our first mixer
  3. Great night for Breckenridge Brewery – people stayed and had dinner and/or drinks
  4. Mixers shouldn’t be in the same month as General membership meetings – on the calendar we have the July baseball game.  It is on the 1st week of July with General Membership 2 weeks after – should work
  5. Next Mixer – April 7 – will ask + Gallery if they would like to host
    • Members are free with one guest
    • Non-Members - $5 or free with paid membership (is $5 too low)
    • RSVP
    • Reminder to vendors – confirmation a day before event and they need to be at the mixer at least ½ hour prior and stay through the event to promote their businesses. 
    • Check-off list on who received drink tokens
    • Residential lofts only
    • Purpose behind mixer – Networking and new memberships
    • ID at door – hand stamp?
  6. July Mixer – Rockies game – Brian will look into a good date for us – possible club level tickets with good discount on tickets.  Rockies can even send out the evite.
  7. Calendar of Mixers – April (members), July (baseball game), October (mixer)
