DEX Weekly E-Mails

Dear DEX Member,

As you may have heard, there will be a carwash fundraiser Saturday from 9AM to 3PM at Advance Auto Parts, 2299 Lafayette Rd – Portsmouth, NH. That’s this Saturday – October 6th, 2007. Please help in any way you can – by letting people know they can get a free carwash, donations are accepted, or help to wash cars.

The next DEX meeting will be on Monday in Room 202 at the normal times – 1:30PM to 2:30PM, and 5:00PM to 6:00PM for nights. Come get your free Pizza and help us plan future fundraisers and community service projects. The McIntosh College blankets are going through compliance to determine if we can sell them as a DEX fundraiser. Numerous restaurant fundraisers have been mentioned in recent days, including Burger King, Uno’s, and Outback Steakhouse. The Donald Trump letter has been mailed. Let’s make it happen.

Community Service that is available includes Dover Main Street, the Cocheco Valley Humane Society, and others. Please attend the meeting to learn more about these exciting opportunities to become credible in your local community, network with local organizations, and become an inspiration to others. Our local DEX chapter isn’t just a place to get free Pizza – its part of a national organization that builds group dynamics and integrity among its members. So come – Eat – Free Pizza – so you can gain vision of a higher quality of life.

I hope to see you at the next DEX meeting – Room 202 – Next Monday.
