Dale Peterson and Barbara Dorsey are this Week's Buy Idaho Member of the Week at KIDO 580 AM

This week's guests on KIDO Radio are Buy Idaho Executive Director Dale Peterson and Membership Director Barbara Dorsey.  They will be discussing the Buy Idaho Membership Luncheon Keynote Address being held in Boise Friday, October 5, 2007 at 12 Noon.

Dr. Robert Kustra, BSU President, will deliver the "keynote address" at the annual membership luncheon, which will be in the "Lookout Room", 3rd floor of the B S U Student Union Building, a roomy ideal location for this event. Free parking is just across the street in the new BSU parking garage, for Buy Idaho participants.
Dr. Kustra is President of the largest institution of higher learning in Idaho, with more than 18,000 students and 2,000 faculty and staff.

Buy Idaho Treasurer and former President of Farmers and Merchants Bank, Clarence Jones said of President Kustra: "He is an outstanding spokesman for higher education in Idaho; a very dynamic and interesting speaker, a true leader in higher education". Buy Idaho Vice President and President of Idaho Candy Company, Dave Wagers said: "Dr. Kustra's revitalization of BSU has not only given us new horizons in education, but helped to support and grow Idaho business as well".
Governor C.L. "Butch" Otter, co-founder of Buy Idaho 21 years ago, has been invited to be with us at the Annual luncheon, and introduce Dr. Kustra. Allan Howa, President of the Board of Directors of Buy Idaho, Inc., will conduct the business meeting.

Seating is limited, reserve now, by calling 343-2582.

Members, bring a prospect, business associate if you like, but reserve now. $35 per luncheon reservation. Have business cards with you to network with 100 other Idaho business leaders. We expect to conclude by 1:15 p.m. Business of Buy Idaho will be presented and conducted by the Officers and Board of Directors, for the membership in attendance.

Each attendee will be asked to introduce themselves and their business. This is a great networking opportunity, so be ready to meet new prospects, and current customers. If you wish to give a door prize, let Barbara know in advance at 343-2582, and bring that also. This will be an informative and fun event that will make you money in the months and years to come. Our thanks for Leon Maynard of the Idaho Council on Economic Education, on the B S U Campus for his help on this event.

Every Thursday at 8:55 a.m. KIDO Radio hosts Dave Burnett and Bryon Norton interview a Buy Idaho member about their business. The interview is an informal question and answer session about the member's business, the products or services they provide contact information, such as address, phone numbers and web site address.
