PPLA 2010 Membership Drive Contest

Each of us joined this association for different and yet very similar reasons.  Some for the fellowship, some for the education, some for the free food at seminars!  But the one thing we shouldn't do is rob others of that opportunity to join and participate and get involved in PPLA.  We all need incentives sometimes, so here is a MAJOR incentive:

Whoever brings in the most new member applications between now and the beginning of State Convention on July 31st 2010 will receive a basket of prizes from our vendors that is currently valued at over $2500 and continues to grow daily.  Here are the particulars - first time membership fee is $95. Contact your district representatives for details.   A new member can sign up by going to (make sure they tell us you sent them) :
