Board minutes are availabe on our website. A number of things were discussed at the meeting, including: a. A few people have not yet paid their dues. Reminders have been sent by Dave. It would be appreciated that those are brought current. b. Janette and Tom discussed Big Drop planning. Please let Larry or Tom know if you are willing to help. Also if you have sponsor ideas please let Larry or Janette know. We are looking at the possibility of returning to the Farmer's Market for the event and holding it either early August or late July. The grand prize will be $3000 again this year. c. The Kirkwood Rotaract Club that we cosponsor with the Downtown Club is being terminated for lack of activity this past year. The primary reason for this is the pandemic. It can be recertified in the future if the situation at Kirkwood changes. d. The Washington Interact Club remains active but it is meeting sporadically this year because of Covid concerns. It has been decided we will not have a joint meeting with them this year and will try to get things reorganized in the fall. Our Club will continue to support the Interact Club financially, but we need a Rotarian to step forward to be our contact person with the Interact Club. e. A plaque for the piano lab will be ordered shortly with Matt and Penny working out the details. We will have a program about the lab in the near future. f. The Kirkwood scholarships will be awarded in May. They will be recognized by letter only and not be in attendance at a Wednesday meeting this year. Mary S is handling the details. g. The format for future meetings continues to be under review. We hope to have an in person service meeting at the Nature Center on April 21 in honor of Earth Day. h. We will be donating a gift card for the silent auction that is part of the District Virtual Conference to be held April 30-May 1. Registration for the conference is currently open at no cost. The Board encourages members to attend. i. Rhonda will no longer be Secretary after June 30 so we are looking for a new Secretary to serve alone or possibly with another person. Please let Larry know if you are interested. |
