Greetings wonderful NCDers!
This is your freindly and overly-excited VPP here to share a few things with you. Summer FUNction was a blast. It seems like every time I get together with the people around the district, I can't help but to have tons of fun. FUNction was a wierd experience for me because it wasn't what I expected.
I always considered Summer FUNction to be an event where we meet somewhere and just goof off. I was under the impression that it is a break from all of the hardcore workshops about building chapters and being good brothers and things of that sort. I was wrong!
Although we don't hold workshops or have a concrete schedule, participating in the events at the campground teach a lot of the things that you learn in those workshops as well as gives the opportunity to discuss things with brothers and sisters from other chapters. A lot of the events (including canoeing with another district officer) really highlight things that we suggest can build stronger chapters and stronger bands.
While planning FUNction, it wasn't always easy. Quite honestly, it wasn't always fun. There was a lot of work that went into it, but it was all WELL WORTH IT!!! The things you gain by just experiencing life in the middle of "nothingness" with your fellow brothers in priceless. Now that FUNction is over, we have the opportunity to experience life in the middle of "somethingness" with more brothers than can be imagined.
National Convention is a little under five weeks away and I am so excited about it. There is so much to be learned from all of the people who will be in attendance... AND IT'S IN ORLANDO!!! This is a great opportunity for all of us and I hope that as many of you as possible will take advantage of it. See ya' at convention!
Always Strivin'
RJ

FUNction was the bomb - you guys did such a great job with that - thank you for all your hard work - this year is already off to a great start and I can't wait to take part in more of what this super exciting council has to offer! See you all in Orlando!
We are glad that you enjoyed yourself. But there is so much more to come. The NCD Council is planning like maniacs to make sure that we can build stronger chapters... which will build stronger bands.
