It was a long weekend, but it passed too quickly! This last weekend JCI UK National Board for 2012 had our first proper meeting as National Board and team.

And we focused a lot on the team. Looking at personalities, values, where we think the UK and JCI in the UK will go, and what we would be if we were to be an app...We laughed a lot and amazingly despite working from 10am to 7pm on Saturday, the talk and mood was still going strong when we went for dinner later Saturday night.

Saturday night did not get late, because we all had an early start Sunday morning. Sunday started with website training, then planning the whole year.

Overall we did a lot of planning, a lot of discussing, and a lot of trying to get our heads around how things will work in 2012.

On Sunday the project leaders joined us and were able to pull together the whole year from January to December and look at what has to happen when. We have lots of exciting plans to launch at Inspiration Day and in our email newsletters to all of our dear members.

A big thank you to Steven Vandevelde, RGC North and General Manager Holiday Inn Sheffield for allowing us to use his hotel the whole weekend.
