LEADERSHIP DIVISION OFF & RUNNING:
Under the direction of Co-Chairs Sheila Butler (Sheila J.
Butler & Co)and Ben Garrett (RA-LIN and
Associates) over 30% of the Leadership Division prospects
have already been contacted with several pledges already in hand.
Scott Kauffman (Greenway Medical Technologies), Pierce ‘PT’ Waldrep
(Government Tax Services) and Matt Windom (Carroll County
Water Authority) have already completed initial contact with all
of their prospects and are now following up to secure pledges. By
the time you read this, I’m sure others will have completed their
contacts and will soon be reporting positive results.
PACESETTER
DIVISION IS NEXT UP:
Co-Chairs Josh Chapman, Linco Properties, and Vic Painter,
Wells Fargo, are in the process of lining up the Pacesetter
Division Teams and they will begin making their calls in mid-April.
This is the third and final division of the Advantage Carroll
initiative.
$3.3
MILLION SOUNDS LIKE A LOT OF MONEYand it is,” said Tim Warren at the Kick-Off Breakfast,
“but the return on $3.3 million is $175 MILLION in new
capital investment and over $100 MILLION in new payroll,
through the creation of 2,000 new and retained jobs along
with the other measurable economic goals over the next five years.”
Tim went on to say,
“Carroll Tomorrow needs more than $3.3 million to fully accomplish
all that needs to be done over the next five years.”
Tim
challenged Carroll County’s business, government and community
leaders to come together over the next few weeks to ensure that a
minimum of $3.3. million is raised and that we move toward a new
goal of $4 million. “We have just begun
the process to make Carroll County the Georgia and southeast leader
in economic development, quality education, community development
and quality of life.”
At the end of the campaign, the “Honor Roll of
Investors” will be published in the Times-Georgian and
will be displayed on a permanent plaque in the Carroll Tomorrow
building.
