Board meeting November 2021

Rotary Board Meeting November 1, 2021

Present: Bob, Phil, Catti, Deb, Dave, Tom, Hubert, Ann, John, Ron, Adam, 

 

  1. Treasurer report Club Account $19,394.69 Foundation Account $9,979.55. This does not include auction monies.
  2. Deb discussed the results of the auction. Deb and Chris were on the radio from 10-12 on Saturday 10/30; Phil and Catti on computers; Hubert, Bob and Aaron on phones. Deb’s observation is that 1) we need to plan sooner, today is not too soon. 2) we need to have more people involved, she suggested at least 2 chairpersons and 2 committees and divide the work up. Deb wants to talk to Jefferson Rotary about what they do, then start our planning for 2022. NOTE: Tom contacted Lidderdale stores and they will provide a 25 person meal every year. Unfortunately we did not have that on our auction (probably my mistake).
  3. 100 year celebration was discussed. Date we determined after discussion April 22, 2022. Location—Carroll Winery, catered meal from Lidderdale. We should invite Rotarians and spouse, former Rotarians, and other guests to be determined. Our invitation should include an RSVP. We should have dinner music—a pianist or All Strings Attached. Phil will talk to John Guinan about reserving the space. We should attempt to invite Mary Baumhover. No other action determined.
  4. A booklet is going to be produced based on our 100 years and the article by Mary Baumhover that appeared in CDTH on last Friday. The booklet will be offered to the club members, cost not yet determined. The club will invite Mary as a speaker and we should give her some recognition. No discussion about what or how much.
  5. Succession planning for the positions of Secretary, Treasurer and Program chair was discussed. Adam suggested a term of about 6 years for those positions would provide continuity while recognizing that no one (in their right mind) wants to do those jobs indefinitely. Catti agreed to succeed Phil as club secretary. There will be an indefinite transition period. 
  6. We need to work on recruiting new members. No action taken.

Phil Phillips, Secretary
