Constantine Caras, center, at Membership Meeting
|
The 25TH Anniversary Campaign has enrolled 25 new members as of August 31, 2008, symbolic of marking the organization’s 25th Anniversary in 2009. The campaign was formally organized into a 60-member National Membership Committee co-chaired by John A. Payiavlas, former L100 Chairman and Constantine G. Caras, the current Vice Chairman, just this summer. “The committee set a goal for 63 members for 2008 with most membership events scheduled for the fall, so we feel confident that we will meet that goal,” said Payiavlas. Ultimately, the organization is aiming for 1,000 members from the current membership of 771. The campaign will continue through 2010.
The Direct Archdiocesan District led the way with seven new members, followed by the Metropolis of San Francisco with five. The Metropolises of Denver, Atlanta and Pittsburgh recruited three members each, followed by the Metropolises of Chicago and New Jersey with two members each.
