Dear Pauline,
Live the Power of WOVI. What does that mean to you? What is the power of WOVI? Is it in your Chapter monthly meetings? Maybe in the MentoRing you experience at each meeting? Think about this: It's in you. It's the power every woman has within herself that WOVI and all it offers unleashes in each of us. Women are incredibly powerful...Click here to read the rest of the article

Your WOVI Dues:
An Investment in You!
Renewing your membership dues in WOVI is an investment in you. Look at some of the many dividends your membership in WOVI pays:
- Monthly meetings with informative, educational and motivational speakers
- The MentoRing exercise full of rich support and personal realization
- A mentor!
- Supreme satisfaction in mentoring another member
- Empowerment
- Member discount at any chapter meeting, not just your home chapter
- Leadership skills
- Special events throughout the year
- InterestRings
And lots more...
It's a huge return on your investment. If you have not already renewed, please do so today.
If you have not already paid your 2009 dues, you may do so at the February meeting in order to receive the member discount.

Recent Actions of WOVI Inc.'s Executive Board
The members of the WOVI Executive board are hard at work planning for the future of WOVI. Well over 200 "Wo-man" hours have been given by this dedicated team of women since the first of January. In additon to regular board meetings and conference calls, full day workshops were held January 17, 2009 and February 7, 2009. Projects and topics included strategic planning for the growth of WOVI, the business of WOVI (budgets, policies, communications and reporting), and event planning.
In addition, a series of surveys have been developed and will be conducted over the coming months. These surveys cover various aspects of WOVI and your participation is encouraged and appreciated. The first regarding WOVI membership has just been completed and the results are being complied. Results will be included in the next issue of The Vision. Thank you to all who participated in the membership survey.
