Did you know?
This Fall, our branch is focusing its efforts on recruiting new members to Federal Retirees. We are doing this in conjunction with the national Mega Recruitment Drive, a contest where members and newly recruited members can win prizes.
As a part of our recruitment efforts, we're holding a happy hour event for individuals eligible for membership but who have not yet joined Federal Retirees. It will be held at Hudson's Pub from 5 to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 16. For only $10, potential new members can enjoy a drink and some appetizers while finding out about Federal Retirees. Members are also welcome to attend the happy hour, but there's a small catch! You must bring a potential member with you. As a bonus, if your guest joins Federal Retirees on the 16th, both you and the new member will have your $10 attendance fee refunded! You'll also both be eligible to enter the Mega Recruitment Drive contest. There's never been a better time to join Federal Retirees! So call up that former colleague and make plans to attend! Send us an email by Sept. 12 at saskatoon@federalretirees.ca to let us know you'll be there.
Remember, every new member you refer - whether its at the happy hour or anytime on or before Nov. 21 - will get you and the new member an entry in the contest. This year's grand prize is a $25,000 trip of a lifetime! There are many other prizes as well. Visit the website for more information about the Mega Recruitment Drive.
