NCS Leadership

NCS Retreat Final Reminder: It’s NOT Too Late (But It Will Be Soon)?

REGISTER NOW for the 2010 Annual Retreat

It’s gonna be great and it will soon be too late!  . 

 

It is NOT too late to still register for the 2010 NCS Annual Retreat.  (But be forewarned—the last person to register for a double room might end up w/ Skip—so don’t wait too long).  Below is the AGENDA.

 

 For those in the NY Metro area, there are still spots left on the bus from Darien CT (leaving CT at 6:00 am Friday morning and leaving the Homestead at 1:00 pm Sunday—just $100 roundtrip).  You can sign-up online when you register.

 

It’s easy to think up excuses—it takes commitment to “show up”. 

 

Brudders, it’s time to “show up” and register—this is NOT a weekend to miss.
