ROTARY CLUB OF FORT GARRY
Next Meeting: Monday May 30, 2022 at 12:15 PM
Guest Speaker: Steven Greyeyes – Topic Truth and Reconciliation
We were pleased to welcome
Barry Hartley, our President, presided over today’s meeting. Thanks to all who attended.
We have sent out letters to 31 businesses/people to inform them about Rotary and an invitation to come and join us for lunch. This is the first of three letters that will be sent. Our new brochure has been completed and was included with the letter that we sent out.
We will also be printing four stories in the community paper with the idea of creating some interest in our Rotary Club. The four stories that have been decided on, are Club’s 60th Anniversary year, Youth Programs, Rotary Villa and our Half Marathon and 5KM fun run. The first of the four stories will appear in the community paper May 18, 2022.
Invoices for 2022 – 2023 Membership have been sent out to all members, total membership fee is $300.00. However, this year we have decided that the fee can be paid in two payments, $150.00 can be paid by June 1st and $150.00 on December 1st. Of course, if members would like to pay the full mount on June 1st they can do so.
Payment can be made by E-Transfer by sending the E-Transfer to
martinjcoward@gmail.com. or by mailing the cheque to the address on the invoice or in person at one of our weekly meetings.
Our club will be 60 years old on May 14, 2022. Initial discussions were held about planning a 60th anniversary and Ted’s 60th year as a member of our club. Our celebration has been deferred to October 19, 2022. We will also be having a dinner instead lunch. More information will be passed on to members has they become available. In the meantime save the date so you can attend our celebration dinner.
Rotary International President, Jennifer Jones, will be visiting Winnipeg in early July. A Committee is being put together by all of the Winnipeg Rotary clubs to determine what we will do during Jennifer’s visit. More updates will be provided as they become available.
