Calling All MSVU Toronto Alum!

Ok. Let's get this party started.

Starting tomorrow every MSVU alum in the Toronto region will get a phone call sometime between the hours of 9:30 am and 4:30 pm. This is the message:

"Hi there – this is a one time message for Mount Saint Vincent University alumnae. There are almost 1000 of us living in the region now. We’ve launched a blog, have a wine tasting event and a dinner coming up. I’m Michael Cayley, I graduated from the Mount in 1990. Please email me at mcayley (at) sympatico (dot) ca or call me at 416-462-1859. That is all you have to do to get connected."

If you get a call, please let me know. If you or someone you know doesn't get a call, please let me know.

I chose those calling times because I think we are more likely to get answering machines during that time and it is probably easier for folks to save the recording than it is to jot down the email or phone number while they are on the phone (although they will have an option to replay the message if they get it live).

I am using software to make the calls. Sorry, I wanted to call everyone personally and I tried a few but, as you know, life is busy. Don't worry your phone number is not going onto some calling list, is has not and it will not be sold. I hate telemarkers too!
