COME OUT FOR A NIGHT OF FUN, FELLOWSHIP, FOOD, AND BOWLING PRIZES AND RAFFLES
“Together we can build our Order!” The Honorable Order of the Blue Goose International is a fraternal organization that welcomes men and women who are involved in the insurance industry. As such, what better way to build our Order than to have a Rush Party?
This Rush for Goslings event is therefore designed to provide each of us with a
specific opportunity to invite prospective new members to our Rush Party and invite them to join. Many of our Ponds are providing special drawings and giveaways for the prospects that join. This year we will host this event at Dave & Busters and it will be a Bowling Event. At this event we will offer the first 10 new initiated Goslings a free ticket to our March Madness Party! The Blue Goose is about ‘giving back,’ to our community in charity, to each other in fellowship and friendship and to ourselves through the development of character and the promotion of integrity. These are the precepts of our Order, which is why our organization provides something unique … a fraternal organization of men and women giving back and showing that we care! You and I are the best recruiters for our fraternity. If you would like additional information please contact myself or any member of the Custodian of the Goslings committee. This year the committee consists of: PMLG Jimmy Dorsey: [email protected] 240-309-4085 PMLG Ian Jenkins: [email protected] 301-682-9887 New Member Terri Gwyn: [email protected] 301-737-8505 Fraternally yours, Barb Markuski: [email protected] 301-404-5758
