Hey all,
I went to the scholarship luncheon today and had a wonderful time. It was kind of a heady experience and I reverted to my shy self, which mostly means that I mostly sat there and listened to conversation and had a few conversation about topics that I loved. I had a brain fart about asking questions, but it wasn't the right kind of setting to do so being in a room with hundreds of women of different GLOs for NPC luncheon.
My next move I believe is too send a thank you note to my sponsor in "snail mail" form and ask if there are any upcoming events that I could be invited to so to get to know the members more personal setting. I think this is the correct move...isn't it?
I don't feel it's correct, even in this day and age to send it electronically, for such an important event as this, especially since I would like to be apart of their group. What do you all think?

Ms. Gwyn,
You have such a positive attitude about this and I just wanted to commend you on it!
I've always been a big fan of snail mail because it provides a more intimate and personal tone. The fact that you were invited to a wonderful event like a NPC luncheon is a great thing and an honor, IMO, as most NPC alumnae would not invite just any average Jane to this event.
To me, e-mail seems the most convenient, but...correspondence such as a "Thank You Note" will probably be and hopefully be much appreciated. Just knowing that you took the time from your busy schedule to show some gratitude will be a plus to your progress. It certainly won't hurt to do so.
Good luck in your endeavors and keep us posted!
