2012 Fairway of Friends

This is the year to find your ”E” reason for belonging to EWGA – and for sharing it with others.  You are invited to participate in the Expand Your Fairway of Friends membership campaign to Experience how you have the power to positively impact a friend or colleague’s career and personal life by Encouraging her to join EWGA.  Ask her to include your name as her recruiter when she fills out her member application so you will receive credit for your Efforts.  Find the list of program rules and prizes, and keep track of your progress, by checking the spreadsheet posted in the EWGA Member Library inside the Member Clubhouse on EWGA.com.”


Participating in the membership campaign is easy!
1. Make a list of your friends and colleagues not currently associated with EWGA.
2. Invite them to an EWGA event with you; share your story about what EWGA means to you.
3. Download EWGA applications, request a few from member services, or encourage your friends to join online at www.ewga.com.
4. Write in your name on the member referral line of the application (or remind your friends to enter your name if they are joining online).
5. Have your friends submit their application either electronically or via mail or fax.
When we receive applications with your name included, we will begin to count your new member recruits. We’ll welcome each new member to EWGA with a personalized message that lets them know YOU are adding them to your ‘Fairway of Friends’ and look forward to golfing and networking with them this year.
You will also be earning great prizes from Nike Golf depending on the number of new members you recruit. Nike prizes will be awarded in the following categories (you will earn the prize in the top category you reach in your recruitment efforts):
