21st Annual Early Bird Business Meeting and Golf Outing


Every year, we host an annual "Early Bird Business Meeting and Golf Outing" at Tanglewood and every year, Chip Rohde, the event's organizer, predicts the day will be "sunny and warm". Well this year was no different.

First, the event begins with what we call, the "Early Bird Business Meeting". This year's early bird meeting was a panel discussion with Detroit's Big 3 about their Social Media strategies. Some of our attendees even posted great notes on Twitter from the event; for example,

@DigitalRootsCRM posted "From #SOCAP: MT @jetsongospel @GM #SocialMedia: If customers are out there and asking questions we need to be there. @SOCAPGL"

@jetsongospel posted "Chrysler now has direct chat support on contact us page #social @SOCAPGL"

@bryanwillmert posted "Where ever you're at on the journey.. it takes time to get to where you want to be. - Mont Wright from @Ford #socapgl"


If you attended the Early Bird Meeting or missed the event and want to see our presenters' slides, they are available HERE and are accessible any time via our website (www.socap.com/greatlakes).

Once the meeting concluded, we transitioned into golf mode, which was an 18 hole scramble with several teams playing for prizes and bragging rights.  Prizes for the day included longest drive, longest putt, closest to the pin, and a putting contest for both men and women.

As always, people learn a lot from the Early Bird Meeting and/or unwind and have a good time at the Golf Outing. Don't believe me? Check out the photos from the event (HERE) and see for yourself. And if you were there, enjoy the memories!

See you all at the next event!
