March 2022: EWN Meeting featuring Rebecca Hudoba

Outsmart the Scammers - Fraud Awareness

Fighting financial fraud starts with education as well as communication between family members and their financial professionals. Rebecca will discuss how to spot certain red flags that may indicate a fraudulent encounter, resources you can turn to in the event you or a loved one are targeted, and steps you can take now to help protect yourself and loved ones.

Rebecca's Note: I have chosen this material for this group because I believe a lot of us women have experienced being the caretaker of our aging parents and in-laws or see ourselves becoming more involved in their lives as they age. This material will be helpful to many, if not all, at some point in the near future. It is worthy to note that Edward Jones developed the material for me to present in this type of setting. I do add my own experiences and opinions when applicable.

COVID SAFETY PROTOCOLS: Our venue, Country Inn and Suites, has a large conference room that will allow plenty of space for social distancing. Masks are recommended, but not required. Hand sanitizer will be available.

MEAL SERVICE: We will no longer be offering a buffet-style lunch during our meetings. Our new venue allows us to bring in outside food, so we have new options for you!  Ticket Options: 

1. Meeting Only (no meal provided) - $10. Coffee and water will be available. If desired, you may bring your own food and beverage, such as a bagged lunch or take-out meal.  2. Pre-order a Boxed Meal from The Boat Club - $25 (includes meal and meeting). The boxed meals will contain a sandwich or wrap, fruit/veg, side, and dessert. Meals must be pre-ordered and pre-paid by the preceding Wednesday and will be available for pick-up at the beginning of the meeting. 

ANNOUNCEMENTS: To streamline the announcements time we are trying a new system this year. There will be "Announcement" forms on the tables that you can fill out and give to your table host. After the speaker is done, there will be time for table hosts to share all announcements with the group. After the meeting, your announcement will be posted on our Facebook page at facebook.com/ewnnorthland and in our EWN Members Facebook Group: EWN Conversations & Connections.

MEMBERSHIP: We are updating our membership terms to make it easier for all to track and maintain. Instead of annual memberships that renew on January 1 each year, you may now purchase a one-year ($40) or recurring membership ($35/year) on any date, and it will be good for one year from that date. The recurring membership will automatically renew each year using your entered payment method until you cancel. Cancel at any time! We will have a "First Choice" prize drawing for all of the people that signed up for membership in the month prior to each meeting. Visit our website to learn more: ewnnorthland.com/membership.
