Wow! What a week last week here at the WATCH D.O.G.S. office. Like many of you, we were without power from mid-Tuesday until early-Friday due to the ice storm that hit the mid-west. If you tried to contact our office, we are sorry we couldn't assist you last week. However, we are now back at work and more than ready to meet your needs. For your information, our office hours are Monday-Friday: 9am-6pm( Eastern); 8am-5pm (Central); 7am-4pm (Mountain); and 6am-3pm (Pacific). You can reach us at 888-540-3647, we would be glad to answer your questions, or hear about your latest news, achievements, and launch events.
Speaking about launch events, this is a good time to be planning your spring launch event. We want to encourage you to have your Donuts with Dads Event. This is a great time to fill the remaining vacant days on your WATCH D.O.G.S. calendar. It's also an appropriate time to have WatchDOGS come together to share their stories with other men, or WatchDOGS as we call them. If you questions about planning your spring event, please do not hesitate to call or email our office.
Best Regards,

WATCH D.O.G.S. National Director
Well I hope 2009 has started off in a positive direction for you. The kids are all back in school after a nice long Christmas break and hopefully you've packed away your decorations and lights for another year.
2008 was an especially good year for WATCH D.O.G.S. We ended the year with 1000 Watchdog schools in 32 states and we know that means that over 65,000 men volunteered at least one day in their child's school. Think about it, that's close to half a million volunteer hours!! Guys, in these tough economic times the schools need us more than ever. Yes of course to enhance school security and to be positive male role models for the kids, but also to help bridge the gap created by budget shortfalls that many schools are facing.
Thank you for the time you invested last year in your schools. Please rededicate yourself to do it again in 2009.
Remember:
You're not a good Dad because you're a WatchDog, You're a WatchDOG because you are a good Dad.
I hope you and your families have a great year. We would love to hear from you!

Updates on Blogging!
I have been reaching out to as many schools as possible and trying to encourage you to participate on the blog. We are now going to open it up with more topics. Please take the time to share your thoughts, experience and questions with us and other schools. I am going to post several different topics which you can then respond to. If you want to have another topic I will have a forum for that as well or you can tell us directly by phone or email and we can add that new topic to the blog.
This is the season for new schools to join and existing schools to grow. It is an exciting time for all. I wish you all the best of luck with your Launch Events and the most fulfilling experience of being a WatchDOG!
