O.C. Flash Interactive Meeting Date Change
NO Meeting Tuesday, March 5th
Next Meeting Tuesday April 2nd
Thank you to all that attended our February meeting!

The next O.C. Flash Interactive meeting was originally scheduled for Tuesday, March 5th. We were set to talk more about Object-Oriented Programming (OOP!). We were also going to discuss thoughts on leadership, focusing on how we can be good leaders in our businesses, with our clients, and in our professional networking and other dealings.
Given that March is the month celebrating Saint Patrick’s Day…. the OCFI Managers are off chasing rainbows and pots of gold. In order to honor their inner leprechauns, we will be skipping the meeting in March and re-grouping in April.
For those of you who don’t understand our silliness…Jeff and Caprice are working on projects with tight deadlines. In order to be in integrity with all of our commitments,the next O.C. Flash Interactive meeting will be Tuesday, April 2nd (no fooling…get it?!). We will cover the next installment of OOP, as well as discuss thoughts on leadership.
We will meet at roundpeg starting at 6:30 pm. Please note that we will be targeting our May or June meeting for our first 2013 “Share our Stuff” session, so please come to the April meeting prepared to sign up to share in May or to vote for the sharing at our June meeting.
Until we meet on April 2nd….we wish you a month of four-leafed clovers!
We look forward to seeing YOU on April 2nd!
~ Jeff & Caprice, OC Flash Interactive Managers
