David's BlogMonday, April 08, 2013Grow Younger Together
Imagine
this scene...you are at a Chamber gathering one morning when a longtime
friend approaches you, looks around to survey who is in earshot of her
message, leans forward and whispers, "I know how you can learn to live
strong, fit and sexy until you are 80 years old and beyond. In fact, I
know how you can be younger next year."
I
suspect your friend would have your undivided attention. My friend,
Bill Burns, had my undivided attention last month when he shared with me
the insight he had recently gained by reading the blockbuster book, Younger Next Year - A Guide to Living Like 50 Until You're 80 and Beyond.
Believe
me when I tell you, that after talking with Bill, I ran to the Duluth
Public Library to check out the book. I was highly motivated to learn
the lessons presented in this remarkable book. I am equally motivated to
have as many Chamber members as possible also gain from this insight.
We can learn together. We can grow younger together. We can begin this wonderful journey of discovery: Thursday, April 11th, at 7:00 p.m., Symphony Hall, at the DECC.
The
book's author, Chris Crowley, will present what promises to be a
motivational talk that will convey the essence of his book. He will do
so with the passion, optimism, eloquence and humor that have made him a
best selling author.
This
event is free and open to the public. This is because the gathering is
made possible by the following community treasures: Essentia Health,
Minnesota Power, maurices, Patricia Francisco LTCP, the City of Duluth's
Bridge to Wellness, and the Duluth News Tribune. These sponsors
understand and appreciate how powerful this message can be for our
beloved community. They understand how the insight and the inspiration
we receive at this gathering can transform and lift up our Zenith City
one individual and one family at a time.
I hope you will join us April 11th at
our community's gathering place - the DECC. Let's see if we can turn
back our biological clocks and continue to live with vitality and
strength into our eighties and beyond.
Please invite family members, coworkers and friends to join you.
David Ross, President & CEO
