Dear Prospective Member, In 1908, a small team of 23 Des Moines advertising professionals emerged as the first group to address the challenges facing our young industry. Forming the Des Moines Ad Club, the leaders were known locally as some of the most innovative in our field. This January we embark on our 100th anniversary as a central Iowa advertising organization and we encourage you to explore what leadership in advertising means today. As the incoming President for the Advertising Professionals of Des Moines, I reviewed the club’s bylaws and came across a quote that truly captured why our club was established and why continued membership is important to our industry. By Laws: Article II – Section 1. The object of this organization shall be to foster higher standards of practice in advertising, to expand recognition of advertising, to further the personal and professional knowledge of persons in advertising, and to promote good fellowship among advertising persons. This quote represents our commitment to you, the advertising professionals of Des Moines. The most recent membership survey showed an overwhelming request for professional development and fellowship opportunities and we have listened to you! The 2007-2008 schedule is jam packed with amazing speakers, educational forums, social networking, legislative priorities, a club marketing campaign, and a newly revived public service project. Don’t miss out on these exciting new opportunities. To join please complete the enclosed application and send it to us or apply online at www.adprosdsm.com. You can always contact our Membership Chair, Amanda Rinehart, at arinehart@flynnwright.com or 243-2845 with any questions. We look forward to seeing you at one of the monthly Ad Pros meetings or at one of the new events. Thank you in advance for supporting the Ad Pros of Des Moines and please join us in celebrating our 100th year! Take care, Jennifer Simpson 2007-2008 President Advertising Professionals of Des Moines, an American Advertising Federation (AAF) Affiliate
