Ribbon Cutting
Ceremony
On Tuesday afternoon October 13,
Chamber members, family members, and
friends gathered in the Jack Moore
Community Room to officially welcome
Joey Kemple and her business Travel 45
as a new Chamber member.
Amanda Teter, Client Relationship
Manager with UMB on South Holden
Street, welcomed the group,
acknowledged the elected official present
(Mayor Robin Allen) and introduced
Travel 45 and Joey.
Joey spoke to the group about the
specialized and personalized services that
she provides her clients - true customer
service, from start to finish. She has 21+
years experience in the travel industry,
from corporate to family to leisure,
and said she loves getting to help
make people happy.
She made two attendees VERY happy with
the two $100 discount certificates they
won! Scott Patrick and Gale Matthews
were the lucky winners, and several other
attendees won small journals and flashlights Joey also generously gave away.

Ribbon Cutting
Ceremony
On Wednesday October 14, the
Warrensburg Chamber of
Commerce had the pleasure of
officially welcoming Tranquility
Shop into the Chamber with a
Ribbon Cutting ceremony.
The shop was crowded with customers as this was also their Grand
Opening. Apple cider, coffee and
homemade molasses cookies were
served as customers and Ribbon
Cutting attendees browsed through
the selection of essential oils, teas,
stones and crystals, books, CDs,
scarves, jewelry and more.
Member Relations Committee
member Rick Squiric welcomed the
crowd, introducing Becky and Tom
Axton, store owners, and several
family members also in attendance.
Becky spoke about her desire to
create a place that supports natural
healing and tranquility, as a service
to the community she grew up in
and loves. The back room of the
shop will in the future be used for
classes and demonstrations relating to the shop's offerings of
stress-relief and self-care.

Shop visit their Facebook page or

Chamber Networking Breakfast
At the Chamber networking breakfast on
October 14, UCM President Charles
Ambrose gave a thorough update to
attending Chamber members and guests,
including a review of the current state of
the University and plans for the future.
Dr. Ambrose spoke to the three things that
students hire the University to do: 1. help
with access to an education, 2. help with
finishing their degree, and 3. graduating
with a meaningful degree. That all comes
down to managing four things, he said:
cost, time, skills, and debt.
He touched briefly on the need to improve
and expand housing options on campus,
noting that it's important to have a balance
between on-campus options that can help
with student retention and success and
off-campus housing that benefits both
students and property owners.
He thanked Senator David Pearce, present
at the breakfast, for his steadfast
commitment to higher education, noting
that the environment for such support
in Missouri is much better than many
of our surrounding states.
New Chamber members also introduced
themselves: Ashely Hurr with F&C Bank in
Warrensburg, Brooklynn Wagner with Pita
Pit, Barry Henderson with PrintLynx, Lorin
Walker with the Management Department
at UCM, and Casey Flowers with the Warrensburg Neighbors publication.
Tony's Restaurant did a fantastic job with
breakfast, and they can cater all kinds of
events! For more information find them
on Facebook or call 660-747-7748.

Project SERVE to
Provide Needed
Community Service
Are you interested in serving others in our community?
Local churches are organizing service projects in the Warrensburg community on Saturday and Sunday, October 1718 for an event called Project SERVE. Project SERVE allows
individuals and groups in local communities the opportunity to help individuals meet needs they are unable to provide for themselves.
There will be a number of service projects during these
two days, including yard work, painting, building birdhouses, singing, and helping sort medication.
If you have an interest in providing needed service to individuals in our community, please contact Erica Collins
(ecollins@pbhc.org) or Doug Christie
(scotland65germany66@hotmail.com) for more information.

UCM Performing Arts Presents The Lake Cottage Duo
The Performing Arts Series
at the University of Central
Missouri, in partnership
with the Department of
Music, presents The Lake
Cottage Duo in concert at
7:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 19
in Hart Recital Hall.
The Lake Cottage Duo, featuring Juanita Becker, piano, and Sheri Mattson,
th
oboe, performs classical art music from the 17 century through the present day. They have performed together
more than 15 years, meeting as doctoral students at Florida State University. The Duo’s name comes from their
favorite rehearsal venue, a cottage on Lake Superior. Recent performances include recitals in Barbados, Finland,
and Sweden.
The concert will feature, among other works, performances of German composer Johann Christian Fischer’s
“Concerto No. 1 in C Major,” 20th century composer Benjamin Britton’s “Six Metamorphoses After Ovid, Op. 49”
and Giovanni Daelli’s “Fantasy on Themes from Giuseppe Verdi’s ‘Rigoletto.’”
A collaborative pianist and harpsichordist, Becker is professor of music at Wisconsin Lutheran College in Milwaukee
and also performs with the Kenosha Symphony. Mattson is a member of the UCM Department of Music faculty and
also performs with the Lee's Summit Symphony.
Tickets for The Lake Cottage Duo concert are $3 for students and $7 for adults and are available online at
ucmpas.com and one hour prior to show time at Hart Recital Hall.

Is Voicemail Dead?
Financial Time’s columnist Lucy Kellaway, one of the most interesting observers
of today’s work environment, readily admits she has over 100 voice mails in
her inbox and has no plans to listen to any of them.
If you are like Lucy, you may be missing some worthwhile information. Although the buzz is that voice mail is dead, important-to-you people still use it.
Think how long it is taking for the fax machine to die. It’s like a vampire -- drive
a stake into that machine please!
But if you aren’t listening to your voice mails in a timely manner, at least keep a recorded voice
mail message that informs those who do phone you that “the best way to leave me a message
is……”
If you want an interesting history of voice mail, read Lucy Kellaway’s article, “Voicemail’s message
for the office phone: ‘it’s over’.”
One Easy Step to Improve Conversation: Put the Phone Away
Sherry Turkle, author of “Reclaiming Conversation: The Power of Talk in a Digital
Age,” has been studying the psychology of online connectivity for more than 30
years. Recently she’s been asking, “What has happened to face-to-face conversation in a world where so many people say they would rather text than talk?”
In her recent New York Times article “Stop Googling. Let’s Talk” she says, “Studies
of conversation both in the laboratory and in natural settings show that when two
people are talking, the mere presence of a phone on a table between them or in
the periphery of their vision changes both what they talk about and the degree of
connection they feel. People keep the conversation on topics where they won’t
mind being interrupted. They don’t feel as invested in each other. Even a silent
phone disconnects us.”
Change the landscape. Try this one easy step for the next thirty days. Don’t have your phone out
when you are talking to someone face-to-face or at meetings. Try it at home as well.
Prep Your Conversation
Tongue-tied when it comes to conversation? Andrew Reid, founder of Vision Critical says, “have something that’s current, on topic, and interesting on hand to talk
about. Whether that’s the latest article on the tech crunch, a business
book you've just read, or something current from your twitter stream. You can inject that interesting content into conversations easily and get the whole group involved.” Note: This is Tip # 31 from our 88 Positive Networking® Tips for Conferences quick guide.
