GRC and Boston Market Hosts a "Dine & Donate" Event 

GRC held it's second "Dine and Donate" event on July 21st.   This time it was at the Roseville Boston Market.  We had a wonderful time and Ken  Peters, Manager, at the Foothills Blvd. location made us all feel welcome and loved with their ever famous Boston Market Chocolate Chip Fudge Brownies (need I say more) and his personal attention.  We'll know how well the fundraiser went in a few weeks.

Many thanks to Ken and the friendly staff at Boston Market!

On Saturday, May 22nd, GRC had its first ever "Professional Development Seminar."   It was a fantastic turn out with four great speakers touching on the topics of inspiration, being in charge, networking, software, productivity, and new technology.  Not to mention the delicious breakfast and lunch.

Kristi LeGue, Inspirational Speaker, inspired us with the power we have within ourselves, harnessing it, and using it to our advantage.   John Waller, Self-proclaimed Geek, provided tips and methods for networking, and shared new technology/software.   Marsha Young, SPHR, was a true driving inspiration; teaching us to achieve, influence, and manage our outcomes to become a leader.   Mike Toibin from Sanford showed us the latest and greatest in writing implements, new labeling machines, and using mail merges with the labeling machines.

Our own Theresa Souza was the winner of Sanford's Dymo 450 Labeler, and Cheri Miller, our newest GRC member, won the Wine/Snack Door Prize Basket.  Congrats to both ladies!

Thanks to Guy Fieri's Johnny Garlic's for allowing us to host a "Dine & Donate" event on April 27th at the Roseville Johnny   Garlic's located at 10505 Fairway Drive, Roseville, CA (Hwy 65 and Fairway Drive). GRC earned 25% of the evening's pre-tax profit, as long as guests gave our event flyer to their dining host/hostess. If you were unable to stay for dinner or drinks at the bar, you could order and take your food to go.

This was a creative way to help the chapter and to finish off "Administrative Professionals Month," as well as promote a local business.

2010 Mardi Gras Bunko Fundraiser 

WOW - A good time was had by all!

On March 20th, the Greater Roseville Chapter held its annual Bunko fundraiser event at the Hawthorn Suites on Bercut Drive in Sacramento.  It was a chance to sit down with old and new friends of the chapter and catch up!  A lunch was served of sandwiches, brownies and cookies donated by Boston Market, chips and, of course, the ever present M & M's.  Over 30 wonderful donation prizes were given away throughout the event.  The lucky GRC silent auction winner was Fran Conaty with a one-night stay in an Atlantis Reno Casino Tower Room and Harpreet Dulay silent auction winner of the California Family Fitness Membership.  Debra Burruss CPS/CAP, California Division Board Member, had the winning silent auction bid for the sterling silver diamond and blue topaz necklace with the proceeds benefitting the IAAP Retirement Trust Foundation (RTF).

We would like to offer a special 'Thank you' to all our donors – Boston Market / Hawthorn Suites / Atlantis Reno Casino / Bob's Roseville Carwash / California Family Fitness / Holiday Inn Express Roseville / Balance § Beauty § Bliss Massage Salon / Golfland-Sunsplash Roseville Family Fun Center / Greater Roseville Chapter Members

Also, to our advertisers – PennySaverUSA.com / KNCI 'Pat & Tom' Radio Show / The Press Tribune Newspapers 

We hope you had a chance to "Mix It Up" at our first Tri-Chapter IAAP Open House on Dec. 3rd at The Sheepherders Bar & Grill. IAAP members from the Greater Roseville, Sacramento, and Rancho Cordova chapters gathered with Administrative and HR professionals, as well as regional employers for hors d'oeuvres and wine tasting, networking, and raffle prizes.  Approximately 100 people attended. We hope to make it an annual event that grows in size and becomes more renowned.
