President’s Message
Where did the time go?! It seems like we were just enjoying brunch together in September with Mrs. Armstrong and her staff, but the calendar tells us that Thanksgiving is less than a month away! And so begins the holiday festivities including our Club Holiday Party and Silent
Auction at the SLO Country Club on December 7, 2017. Send in your RSVP now; the details are included in this newsletter!
Also in this newsletter, we’ve included the details about the “Members Only” Professional- Personal Development Workshop on January 27, 2018. Life Coach and author Sasha Mobley has discounted this workshop ($50 for members usually $150). Send your registration fee to make sure you are included.
The Board of Directors meets November 1, 2017 at the Union Bank Community Room (located
995 Higuera, SLO) at 4:30 pm. Members are welcome, and the agenda will be posted on our
website the week before the meeting. There’s plenty of parking from the Osos St. side where you’ll find the community room entrance. We have several member oriented items and events under discussion, so join us!
Lastly, Treasurer Elaine Ramos Doyle has the new directories that list all the upcoming Club events, dates and member info. Once she receives your membership dues, she will send you the directory.
Best,
Chris Hoover & Val Barboza

MEMBERS ONLY PROFESSIONAL PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT “STRENGTH-FINDERS” WORKSHOP
DATE: Saturday, January 27, 2018 @ 10AM-noon
LOCATION: Cal Poly campus Bldg.11 (Ag Sci) - room 104 (cattycorner from the
Library)
COST: $50 for members; non-members $75
RSVP: Send a check made out to “Alexandra Mobley” to: Val Barboza, 1756 Cordova Dr., SLO 93405
Using the Gallup Strength Finders assessment, participants will learn how to use and develop their strengths for results that may have seemed impossible to attain. Our trainer Sasha Mobley, a certified Gallup and Life Coach, will discuss how we limit ourselves to second rate experiences because we buy into someone else’s success model.
Attendees will receive a Strength Finders 2.0 access code before the class in order to complete the assessment. Then during the Workshop, participants will use the resulting Signature Themes report and Action Planning guide to develop an approach to their natural talents.
If you have questions, email Sasha (sashamobley@gmail.com) or visit her website:
