If you missed last Wednesday's meeting ...
 Dennis Pechinski - Weaver Dairy Real Estate
I grew up in central Wisconsin doing various things for employment. At that time my “playtime” was Demolition Derby’s and Enduro Racing. I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters who all live in our hometown.
I was married for 15 years and now very single.
I moved to North Carolina and procured my real Estate license and have been in the business for 26 years. I decided on real Estate knowing that when I retire I can still sell real estate and help people purchase and sell their biggest asset. I really enjoy sharing the excitement of my clients purchasing or selling a home.
My playtime now if jet skiing and canoing on any body of water which allows the past time. Fishing is also a relaxing pastime. Catch and release only.
I love North Carolina’s "seasons" as they are not as volatile as Wisconsin.
... You were indeed missed.
More importantly, Bring plenty of Business Cards and be ready to network!

Did You Know:
 From: Lee Schearer,
To: My Fellow Chapel Hill Leads Group Members
"A Positive Attitude!"
Today I would like speak of a man who has helped me in the development of my positive attitude. That person is Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, author of The Power Of Positive Thinking. In his Introduction Dr. Peale states, in part, "The positive thinker constantly sends out positive thoughts, together with vital mental images of hope, optimism and creativity. He therefore activates the world around him positively and strongly tends to draw back to himself positive results." To put it a more simplistic way is "like minds think alike".
That is one reason why the Chapel Hill Leads Group has been so successful, now in its over 20th consecutive year. It serves as a small business incubator, where our members can meet with other entrepreneur's. It operates as a business referral organization, but it also serves as a board of directors that can help each other achieve success in their respective business.
I invite you to join me this Wednesday morning and to witness for yourself why The Chapel Hill Leads Group should be part of your marketing plan for the year.
Respectfully,
Lee Schearer

Attention CHLG Members - The Chapel Hill Leads Group's goal is to raise 100+ boxes of cereal a month. If everyone brought one box of cereal to two meetings this month, the Chapel Hill Leads Group would easily exceed the 100 boxes of cereal goal.
