Asset Champions Network Gathering
Tuesday, December 2
7 - 8:30 p.m.
St. Louis Park High School
The Tuesday, December 2nd Asset Champion Gathering will be focused on developing a tool for Asset Champions to connect and stay in touch. Michael, Jordan, Leigha and friends will train Asset Champions on the nuances of Facebook. The meeting will be held 7-8:30 p.m. in the Media Center at St. Louis Park High School.

During this session, our trainers will help Asset Champions create their own page and set them up as members of the Asset Champions Network group. A nice feature of Facebook is that when you receive a message, you can have an alert sent to your email. Through a link in the email message, you can receive your Facebook message.

This is a great opportunity to get up to date on this technology. If you are interested in learning more about the Asset Champions Network email Karen.
