October Luncheon - FINAL CALL TO REGISTER
Join us at 11:30AM for our October 12th monthly meeting featuring Speaker John Burns on the Wake County Transit Plan at Embassy Suites by Hilton Raleigh Durham/Research Triangle, 201 Harrison Oaks Blvd, Cary, NC in the Biltmore/Hope/Bellamy/Mendenhall meeting rooms.
Wake County grows by 64 people every day. To be prepared for the future, we have to build a modern public transportation system that reduces traffic congestion, grows our economy, and provides new and better transportation options for everyone. John Burns, Wake County Commissioner, will discuss the approved, bipartisan Wake County Transit Plan and the important fall referendum vote on a dedicated, locally-controlled funding source.

Community Outreach Committee
The GTC of IFMA Community Outreach commitee had a very busy September! Not only did the committee organize an InterFaith Food Shuttle event to bag groceries for seniors on September 15th, they also formed a team for the Annual Gail Parkins Memorial Ovarian Cancer Walk & 5K Run on September 17th. Over $265,000 was raised as a result of the walk this year, and all of the proceeds go to the ovarian cancer research program at the Duke Cancer Institute.
Thank you to everyone in our membership that participated in these events!
