AFLSE/LA Upcoming Events
Dear Reader,
We hope you have had a rejuvenating holiday season. The outlook for this coming year is pretty grim. Please let us know your ideas about how best to harness the power of our AFLSE/LA chapter in mitigating the economic downturn. 888 alums and friends receive this newsletter. How could reaching these people enhance your life? What is the best approach? Let us know.
Would you like to start a special interest group? For example, people in entertainment, single dads who like to golf, surfers for world peace.
What other way would you like to get involved in our chapter?
RECAP
We enjoyed two holiday events - an all Ivy business school drinks mixer in West Hollywood and a Santa Brunch at our co-chair Elizabeth's house (with some open minded folks featuring at both). A good time was had by all.
