Fall Rally 2012

Fall Rally was held at the Algonquin restaurant in Bolton Landing.  This year's theme was The Wizard of Oz!

Each chapter was asked to name a member who motivates them the most (your chapter's Glenda, the Good Witch)
Our leader, Shelley was our "Glenda"

 

We all enjoyed this year's rally!

Scott "Q" Marcus, Thinspirational Speaker

WHEN: Monday, September 17, 2012

WHERE: Holiday Inn, 308 No. Comrie Avenue, Johnstown, NY

Scott "Q" Marcus, a nationally known motivational speaker from California, will be on the east coast doing other presentations and he has offered to spend a few days with us, sharing good advice via a seminar and evening Inspiration Workshop! It is a win-win situation! Your field staff became acquainted with Scott at TOPS IRD in California. He does a super job!

Scott is known as the "THINsperational" speaker because he lost 70 pounds once he realized that the solution was to stop trying to be perfect, and instead, just get better. His topics, books, presentations, and recordings bring his recovering perfectionist philosophy to everything from conflict management to weight loss to motivation. His style is fun, energetic and leaves us with so much to think about and work with.

Here's a link to a special video introduction just for us:
