Brilliance Recap
If you missed the wonderful event at the Scottish Rite Catedral
on February 11th we will show you what was there to experience.
ISES had over 500 reservations for the event and brought
in over $5000 for ISES Indiana! With about 30 suppliers
and sponsors to help make this night a time to remember,
all that attended got to walk away with something. Whether
it was a taste of excitement in the cocktail lounge, a wedding
reception feel or even a free gift from the raffle. If you
were one of the winners from the 30 gifts that were raffled
off at the end of the night, you are glad that you stayed
for the end. There were $100 gift certificates at Shula's
Steakhouse, several Valentine's Dinners for 2 from a variety
of different venues, $100 gift certificate from Platinum
Sound for a DJ session, Dance lessons, free Advertising
placement in the Perfect Wedding Guide, free invitation/thank
you printing and several more to enjoy. Just take a look
at the excitement of the night in these photos.

Doin'
the Decade
The
Community Outreach Committee is proud to announce our next
project. We will be working with School on Wheels to create
their first "Doin' The Decade" party on April
26th. This 60's theme party will feature a raffle, fun and
entertainment from 1964:The Tribute (said to be the #1 Beatles
Show in the World).
School on Wheels is a new nonprofit
organization in Indianapolis dedicated to the enhancement
of educational opportunities for homeless children by tutoring
them in shelters, providing them with necessary school supplies,
and organizing summer programs.
ISES
Indiana is helping with the overall planning of the event
and finding vendors who are willing to contribute to the
cause. The committee is also looking for volunteers to help
Saturday, April 26th with set-up and then on-site. If you
are interested please contact Kari Strolberg at ekstro@yahoo.com
or (317)356-9617.

Board
Member Profile
 Jennifer
Osborne: Communication Director
Jennifer has been with ISES Indiana now just over 4 years
and is currently serving on the Board of Directors as the
Communication Director (Newsletter writer). She has worked
on the Pace Committee, the Education Committee with the
REC and lends a hand in several other opportunities that
arise to help out the organization. Being a part of the
organization has introduced her to new contacts that she
would not have gotten without ISES.
Outside
of her ISES involvement, Jennifer works for SYSCO Food Services
of Indianapolis, LLC. SYSCO is a National Food Distributor
for the Food Service Industry, based in Houston, TX. Jennifer
is the Event Coordinator for the Indianapolis Operating
Company. At the 450 employee large Operating Company, she
creates and directs over 30 events a year for SYSCO. SYSCO
is on the client and the supplier side in relation to ISES.
Several of SYSCO's clients are part of ISES and several
of the suppliers in the organization help create their events.
This is why ISES is so rewarding for Jennifer and SYSCO.
Jennifer's
position at SYSCO allows her to work with every aspect of
the organization from Sales to Warehouse Operations. As
with the rest of us in ISES, Jennifer is never bored by
not having enough to do! She presents product showcases
(food trade shows), company picnics, awards banquets, golf
outings, sales meetings, and customer visitations just to
name a few of the events. Always challenging the company
to open their eyes to new creative ideas that keep the customer
excited about the organization.
When
Jennifer is not busy with work or ISES she is using more
of her time in the classroom. She is a student at the University
of Indianapolis, getting her Masters in Business Administration
with an emphasis in Marketing. That does take up any free
time that she could have, but somehow she still finds time
to be able to have a few hobbies. Right now she is loving
the snow, crazy as you may think! She is a snowboarder that
spends a couple weekends and week vacations hitting the
slopes. She also loves to draw, dance, and do any athletic
activity - you can join her in the Mini Marathon in May.
At
the next meeting come up to Jennifer and say hi just to
let her know more about you!
