1 State Presidents Message Ashley Koby Lighting Up Lives – Celebrating Fifty Years of Service Jefferson Street at Officers Training Back Row: Emily Smith, Billie Jo Driggers Front row: Louisa Rosenberg, Cathy Den Boer, Terri Sapp Scenes from Officers Training – Page 2 We have just had our first CGP state board meeting and a very successful officers training the weekend of February 4. The board voted to increase our service hour goal to 70,000 this year and continue what we started last year with not having a membership goal number. We are however encouraging each chapter to maintain or increase membership when compared to 2011. We also voted to raffle off a 2012 Kia Sorrento with tickets being sold between June 1 and September 6 with the drawing being held at the Energy Exchange meeting on Sept 6. The raffle will benefit Electric Kids. As far as officers training, we had 154 people in attendance and shared a tremendous amount of information and ideas. Paul and Karen Bowers attended as well as Mike Anderson and Jeff Petrea, all showing their support and encouragement for the year. We ended the day with a great motivational speech by Martha Lanier, author of Pink Lemonade, who challenged us to overcome our fears, use the skills of those around us, and live our best life. Dont forget to join the Citizens of Georgia Power Group on Yammer to share upcoming events, meetings, projects, or best practices across the state. Go to Yammer.com to learn more and to sign up.

Fifty-five volunteers came together during their lunch hour and assembled 730 sandwiches and 690 complete lunch Bags which also included fruit. They were delivered to Crossroads. Heres what a note of thanks said… We are truly honored that your team chose Crossroads to assist. Sorry I did not bring a larger vehicle but I had no idea there would be that many. Thank goodness you had a van!!!! Thank you sounds like such a trite thing to say so I wish I could box up the joy you are bringing to those we serve but there would not be a box large enough to contain that.
