Numbers climbing
I noticed we are getting closer to 2000 members in Havelock North and a great 3675 in nearby neighbourhoods. How about a huge push to hit 2000 in Havelock North or 6000 in total? We are at 5555 in the combined areas.
Do you think we can make it by the new year? I reckon we can if we all try hard.
Check the map (It's in Invite) in your area and talk to your neighbours, family and friends. Ask them if they are members, if not offer to email them an invite or give them your invite code to join. Send your family invites. Post it on Facebook or Twitter or add it as a signature to your everyday emails or txt messages. If you give out Christmas cards you could even write it in the cards.
Lets see if we can hit the big numbers by 2017!
