March Meeting
Speed Networking
The full scope of how members could be valuable as personal and
professional contacts is not always apparent. Because NSPWA wants to
further enable all members and guests to get to know each other more
quickly, the March meeting will feature a "speed networking" event.
Speed networking allows each participant to introduce herself to both
members and guests as they move along in approximately two minute
intervals. No one is missed because of time constraints. It promises
to be an interesting evening of discovering new contacts and potential
business associates, since NSPWA members come from a variety of
fields, whether solo firms or corporate communities.
*First Time Guest Special*
Starting March, $5.00 off 1 Year membership for Guests who sign up at
their first visit.
Guest Policy
We welcome guests to attend one to two NSPWA meetings to decide
whether the group is the right fit for them.
Turkey Buffet Dinner
Enjoy our ever-popular turkey buffet dinner. All the trimmings of
Thanksgiving; Salad Bar, Soup, Turkey, Mashed Potatoes, Dessert Table
and more... The meal alone is worth the meeting cost.
Walk-ins Welcome
Walk-ins are welcome, but reservations are appreciated. Join us for an
evening of dinner and networking.
April Meeting
Note: We are raising meeting fees to $20.00 for members and $25.00 for
guests. $25.00 at the door. See bottom of the page for more information.
Staying Alive: Street Smarts for Home and Business
Jill Morgenthaler, Retired U.S. Army Colonel and current President of
CJMI, a local homeland security consulting firm, will present "Staying
Alive: Street Smarts for Home and Business". Having survived the
streets of Sarajevo, Bagdad, and Chicago, she will show how to
identify the warning signals of a potential attacker and recommend
strategies for dealing with the problem before it becomes
life-threatening.
Colonel Morgenthaler, who in the past has also served as Illinois
Homeland Security Director, will cover the signs bad guys give when
choosing a victim, the indications that someone may turn violent in
the workplace, and methods to escape alive. Handouts will include how
to respond if there is an active shooter in the vicinity.

Meeting Cost Increase
The Board of North Shore Professional Women's Association has worked very hard to keep dues low and make our meetings very affordable for our members and guests during the current economic hardship. However, due to increasing costs our dues and reduced meeting fees do not cover all of the group's expenses. Therefore the Board has decided to implement a slight increase in the cost for attending each meeting. Effective for the April meeting, the cost will be $20 for members who RSVP and $25 for guests and at the door. This is still a very reasonable amount for the meeting and the high quality meal that is provided.
Increased membership numbers would greatly help our financial situation and at only $105 for benefits such as reduced meeting fees, online directory listing and most importantly the networking opportunities, the cost is an excellent value. So, if you haven't yet renewed, or you've been attending as a guest, now is the time to renew or make a commitment to membership with North Shore Professional Women's Association.
