Expectations
Everyone is welcome to attend a WINGS meeting you just RSVP with the chapter co-ordinator of the meeting that you wish to visit. Meeting fees will vary depending on the venue and if it is a coffee, breakfast or lunch meeting. You pay to the co-ordinator upon your arrival.
It is important if you have committed that you be there. If you do not attend and have not called your Co-ordinator, you may be invoiced because the coordinator may have to pay for your meal. If this is a consistent problem you will be removed from WINGS and HEROS. We do not wish to refer someone who does not take their business appointments serious.
General Format
At a meeting you are encouraged to use the WINGS format to introduce yourself and your business and will also be encouraged to use the cheat sheet as a guide to keep everyone focused and on track.

WINGS and HEROS are proud of all our Associates and we seek to approve good honest people. We are looking for Quality but rather Quantity. We suggest that you attend a meeting or two before requesting an application.
