NAPW Sacramento Chapter Enjoyed Two Fun, Networking Meetings This November and Discussed Launch of Several New Chapters
Garden City, NY (PRWEB) December 16, 2011
The Sacramento Chapter has two meetings, both a lunch and a dinner meeting, each month in order to accommodate the busy schedules of the members. While both meetings have the same agenda and speaker, people often elect to attend both meetings since the networking will be different each time. For the sake of simplicity, both meetings have been folded into one in these minutes. There is so much diversity of the women in our chapter, as is illustrated by the following summaries of their introductions.
Sharon Darrow opened the meeting by welcoming everyone. She then talked about the San Francisco chapter which has just been reactivated with a dynamic new President, and had an exciting first meeting. Many of the members are frequent visitors to Sacramento, so hopefully chapter members of both groups may get to know one another. She then talked about the new chapter starting up in Roseville, with the hope that as it becomes active the two chapters will get together. Since many members are not familiar with all the features and offerings available on the NAPW website, Sharon brought her iPad to show the site and how to navigate it. She encouraged everyone to ensure their profiles are up to date and to make sure that they have taken the step to officially join the Sacramento chapter — which only shows about 80 members on the site out of nearly 500 on the monthly member mailing list! Next, the chapter moved in to the most important part of each meeting: individual introductions.
Andrea Meyer was excited to be a brand new official member of the NAPW Sacramento local chapter. She will be starting paralegal classes in January, to add to her impressive scholastic accomplishments of a B.A. and four Associate’s in management, marketing, organizational behavior and leadership, and business. Andrea also makes hand-made greeting cards and brought samples for the chapter to enjoy.

If you want your home to look like the beautiful pictures in a magazine, she can make that happen. Rebecca can also help with getting your house or business ready for upcoming holiday parties.
Leigh Stepp is an attorney with Anwyl, Scoffield and Stepp, practicing general, civil litigation. She does defense work and is available for consultations on any type of legal matter including premises liability, trip and fall, and construction problems. If Leigh doesn’t handle your specific type of problem, she can assist you in finding someone who can.
Teresa Shah is a medical social worker and provides assistance with long term care planning, writing advance directives, and communicating those plans with family. As part of advance planning she is very interested in Adult Day Care as a great way to keep people out of nursing homes. Teresa was also recently appointed President of the NAPW Roseville Chapter.
Beverly Sanchez is with Goodell, Porter, Sanchez and Bright LLP, a local CPA firm. She is the tax partner and is very busy right now with nonprofit clients. Beverly is also doing a lot of tax planning with her self-employed clients. She was very happy to report that there a lot of new businesses forming in the Sacramento area, and she helps them with proper planning for their tax and reporting requirements.

She was very excited about a new client who produces a chicken rotisserie, and also about new financing she now has available for companies with new products. With the new developments, Marissa is hiring people, and invited members to contact her if they know someone in need of a job.

Dana has tried to create a comfortable atmosphere for her patients, having learned what they like after 10 years of practice in Wisconsin and several years in New York prior to that.

They met and were interviewed by Star Jones and had great fun networking at the Four Seasons Resort in Beverly Hills. In addition to Star’s retinue and the NAPW staff people — who were absolutely wonderful! — they got to meet and share with many women from the Los Angeles, Westlake Village, Irvine, and San Diego chapters. The Presidents and chapter members were warm and friendly, and the setting couldn’t have been nicer.
Guest speaker, Claudia Pruett, is the coauthor of “Cooking Dinner: Simple Italian Family Recipes Everyone Can Make” with her friend and partner Rima Barkett, and has an amazing list of accomplishments. In addition, Claudia and Rima formed “A Tavola Together”, a nonprofit foundation for teaching kids how to cook healthy, tasty foods. Claudia’s presentation was a fun and informative mix of cooking information about minestrone and bread mixed with wise information about the importance of families sharing meals together — and even some good suggestions about how to accomplish that goal in today’s busy world. The chapter was encouraged to check out the link to Claudia’s site above, and look for her picture on her Focaccia bread mixes next time they are shopping at Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Corti Brothers and other fine grocery stores.

Wasn’t one of his main campaign arguments against McCain was that McCain wanted to do this? What a hypocrite.
What’s all this about healthcare?
Let me tell everyone wha’s going to happen. With absolutely no practical way of even beginning to activate this bill, it’s going to be deemed a “long term plan” and fade into the sidelines for years and even decades. And by that time, the Tea Parties will have inevitablly created a new Republican majority in Washington that will kill the bill. And that will be the end of it. Questions?
As soon as anyone makes the Hitler analogy they lose all credibility in my book. Unless Oboma killed 6 millions Jews you have no ground to stand on. Hitler probably ate ham sandwiches does that make anyone who eats ham sandwiches Hitler?
@mizzpriss02 sadly it all comes back to taxes. i agree that if many other countries (not just developed core ones, but even the states people would consider “Third World”) can do this, america should to. unfortunately, there is a sizable group of people here who just absolutely refuse to have govt get involved in anything…which really doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me
stan brock: I need to be in haiti, i need to be guatemala, i need to be in zimbabwe
holy fuck. that’s about all that needs to be said right there
Obamacare was signed on March 2010 with 59% of the people disapproving according to a CNN poll. The CBO scored Obamacare on six years of coverage for 10 years of taxes, which is how the CBO showed the bill to be deficit neutral . It’s unconstitutional mandating all citizens to purchase health care. Even Pelosi said, “We have to pass the bill, so you can find out what is in it.” watch?v=KoE1R-xH5To It’s also meant to take over industry watch?v=p-bY92mcOdk

I have a friend whose wife has Breast Cancer and the medical bills are enormous. They have had to declare bankruptcy. Apparently medical bills will put you out on the street in this country!
@georgekostaras Nor is there any resemblance in the United States. It is only in the minds of the very stupid.
Should I press ‘Like’ or ‘Thumb Down’ ?????
Best chance to get a Russian lady gettop5.info
I live in Canada and we’ve got socialized medical care. In many aspects it sucks but in all my life I’ve never seen a “death pannel” and there’s no resemblance in my society to nazi Germany.
i hope all the people who don’t want health care and get sick then get deneyed coverage because there medicine is “experimental”
@wildboy789789 You are right, the teabaggers are hiding behind issues they know nothing about. They need to quit hiding and just come out and say it, they are racist! They let it slip a few times already. Why do anglo people have so much anger towards President Obama? Our last president ran our country into the ground and their was NEVER this much anger!
@mizzpriss02 dont worry, as long as we all vote we will get another democrat even if its not obama running… the republican party is split between conservatives and teabagging rascist idiots
good idea. lets subside corn and make healthy food expensive as possible, but health care is free. so go ahead, everyone eat junk food and wait in line to get ur teeth pulled, i dont care. but seriously, stop relying on government for money, hand outs, etc
GOULD FOR PREZ
No, that’s not what progressivism is, either.
These people might be loons but so are the fucktards who think that ANYTHING progressive is somehow good and that no wicked people were ever labeled progressive in their time.
SO all the new ideas Germany had were nor progressive??? Get fucking real. Germany was considered a marvel of innovation in the USA before the war started. The concepts of everyone working and everyone belonging (grant it if they were racially preferred). Do you know who Gregpr Strasser was? What passes forl thinking today is a fucking joke.;
Do you know anyone who is on medicare or medicaid or social security or welfare or veterans services?
Do you know anyone who has ever sent a letter via the USPS, had their house fire put out, been arrested, gone to a library, gone to a public school, or taught in a public school?
All of that technically makes the US a giant socialized gulag… right?
Obama is not advocating larger government anymore than Bush was. In fact it seems like less government to me… and to actual facts.
Not even Wikipedia confuses National Socialism with progressivism (a term that real historians take care to use correctly).
if you are in fact a supporter of people like obama i would suggest to you that condemning people who oppose him is dead end route. unfortunately something much for sophisticated is needed to defeat his opponents. again i would suggest that, in being a representative of barack o’bama in your community, you avoid using rederic to condemn your opponents as evil. the first step towards progress is fraternity and mutual understanding
