Rod Beasley, Regional Captain of Arkansas Region 5, recently hosted a meet-and-greet at a public library in the central location of his region with 24 in attendance. Of those, six guests came to learn about Convention of States and how they might be involved.
The goal set for the meeting was to energize the patriots in his area. It was the first meet-and-greet in the region since the Article V resolution passed in February, and everyone seemed eager for information, including a new District Captain who traveled from adjoining District 48: Jamie Franks--pastor, postman, and COS devotee.
Once the discussions started, some of the new guests revealed how excited they were to learn that they were not alone in their desire to do something positive to turn America around.
Each guest was invited knowing this was a recruitment effort. After only about a month of planning, Rod was pleased with the success.
“There were six new folks that I had never met, so I’ll be following up to meet one-on-one for coffee next week,” Rod said.
State Director Jacque Martin presented information to the group on some of the exciting milestones both statewide and national.
“What a nice, relaxed atmosphere to recruit new volunteers,” she said. “This is the type of activity that everyone can feel comfortable to express the abilities they bring to the team, and we can easily match them up to our needs.”
At the writing of this article, one new District Captain has joined in a region that had no volunteers until now.
If you are interested in joining our state team, contact State Director Jacque Martin to learn more about all the opportunities to get involved in energizing Arkansas.
