MIMA Membership Soars Past 1000
What a Ride!
In the past few months, MIMA has grown to more than 1100 members, and then some! It’s been a fast and furious growth curve for MIMA which started just over 10 years ago as a small salon gathering. See the timeline developed in conjunction with the 2008 MIMA Summit for a little retrospective on MIMA’s growth and evolution.
He’s Not Just a Number, He’s MIMA Member #1000
The MIMA Membership Committee dropped in for a surprise presentation to MIMA member #1000, Brian Haugen of Priority. See the video and See photos.
Brian’s number came up as part of Priority’s group membership earlier this year. With the help of several Priority players, including Brian Bierbaum and Dan Humiston, the MIMA Membership committee surprised Brian with the announcement. In thanks for his monumental membership, the MIMA presented Brian with a one-in-a-thousand t-shirt designed just for him and a highly-coveted pass to MIMA Summit 2009 (which opened for early-bird registration).
The 1000th member event was captured on video, with special thanks to Priority’s Dan Humiston for shooting/editing and to Buzz Cutz for contributing the music. The Priority team helped assure it was done in style, tiara and all.
Thanks to Brian Haugen, and to all MIMA members, for making MIMA a vibrant, 1000+ strong community.
Sincerely,
Ben Wallace
MIMA Membership Director
