On Tuesday evening, February 10th, there will be a combined dinner meeting for current members, alumni, and guests of Association of Women in Computing (AWC), IT-Networking, MIS Network Associates (MNA), Monmouth Networking, The Breakfast Club NJ (TBCNJ), ETP Network, and Careers in Transition (CIT) at the Holiday Inn, Totowa, NJ.  
The dinner meeting will include a presentation by Rod Colon on Managing Your Career.
The schedule for the dinner meeting on February 10th will be:
-         6:00 pm – Registration, cash bar, and "speed dating"
-         6:45 to 7:15 -- Individual introductions with RSVP list reference – see below
-         7:15 pm -- Dinner
-         8:00 pm – Rod Colon's presentation with appropriate Q & A
-         9:30 Approx – Raffle – You must be present to win
Following our usual meeting format, after you have registered and added your resumes, etc. to the handouts, everyone will participate in a series of informal networking groups i.e. "speed dating", before we sit down for dinner and the general introductions.  Briefly, these informal groups last for approximately 10 minutes.  At the end of the 10 minutes, the groups disperse, and new ones are formed with different participants.  Suggested dialogues for the groupings will be provided at the registration desk. 
There will be an opportunity to circulate up to 40 copies of your resume, personal bio, leads, or other appropriate material in a handout from the dinner.  
The cost will be $30 for everyone if forwarded by mail or other to John Sampson by COB on January 23rd at 2 Blackfoot Cir, Wayne NJ 07470.  Checks should be made out to John. He can be reached at 973-248-3251. John's email is jcsspike@yahoo.com. Reservations can also be made through Lizanne Fiorentino at adminedg@optonline.net.  
An RSVP list of attendees will be created and used to facilitate your networking activity. Current or last work affiliation, email address, and membership organization should be included in your RSVP. If you are in transition, please include the names of three target companies and the kind of position(s) you are seeking. If you are currently employed, you should provide the name of your last three employers. The preliminary RSVP will be distributed to the recipients of the initial mailing of this announcement and to all those on the list the week end before the dinner meeting for editing and informational purposes.  A "final" numbered RSVP list will be available at the registration desk on the 1st and can be used as part of your general introduction …"I'm # x on the RSVP list". Your number will also appear on your name badge which will be available at the registration desk on the 1st.  
The cost for the dinner will be $45 for attendees who decide to attend after January 23rd and before February 10th.  
Since there will be walk-ins on the 10th, the final RSVP list will be emailed to the attendees as quickly as possible after February 13th.
We will accept a LIMITED number of walk-ins on February 10th.  Their cost will be $60 without exception as well as for RSVP's whose checks have not been received by COB on the February 9th. There will be NO refunds and no shows WILL be billed.  
Again, attendees should bring 40 copies of their bio/resume, leads or materials they wish to be included in the handout for the evening of February 10th.
 If you would like to help out at the meeting on the 10th, volunteer to be a "Meeting Marshall".  Call John Sampson at 973-248-3251 for details. We can use your help!!!
Directions to the Holiday Inn at One Rt. 46 Westbound in Totowa Park can be found at www.holiday-inn.com/totowanj    Traffic congestion at rush hour is substantial on Rt 46, so you should allow an extra half hour  to get to the Holiday Inn on the 10th.
Please join us for an evening of improving your attempts to deal with your personal career, great networking opportunities, and/or a chance to just catch up. Snow day will be February 11th.
