This event could be an excellent way of introducing a visitor to the added values of BNI membership.

Two New Member Oreintation sessions are planned as follows:

December 4th:  George Eliot chapter at the Nuneaton Golf Club
5.30 for 6.00 to 9.15 p.m.
28th November:  Black Pear chapter in Bromsgrove
5.30 for 6.00 to 9.00 p.m.

Both session are to be led by BNI Regioonal Director, David Bullock

NMO training sessions are designed for new members of BNI to learn how best to maximise their membership. They usually cover the traditions, and protocols of BNI as well as giving new members some good pointers. A good number of experienced BNI members are usually on hand to share experiences.

On Friday 9th November, we are holding a visitors day at The Vale Golf Club.

Having dried out and regrouped following the flooded demise of the Northwick Hotel (our previous venue) we are back and building. We have relocated to be able to work between Evesham and Pershore more effectively and we are now ready to get back to business.

The Visitor Day is an opportunity to meet other businesses in the area and see how BNI in Evesham has conducted over £1.3Million worth of business between members and guests in the past few years.
