Dear Colleagues, 

 

This year at the 2010 National Convention, we are setting up a mentoring program for winners of the Kenneth Jernigan Scholarship Convention Awards given to first time convention attendees. I am looking for mentors who can help work with these winners. These mentors should be members who have attended a National Convention, who could give good advice, and who could build relationships with new attendees. 

 

We will be meeting with the winners in the Affiliate Action Suite from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. on Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of the Convention. On Monday, we will be meeting from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. in the Affiliate Action Suite. These are the times we will need the mentors to be available to work with the winners. Do you have anyone in your affiliate who needs a job? Please let me know if you have any volunteers that can help. I appreciate everything you do; thanks for helping with one more thing! 

 

Best, 

 

Joanne Wilson
