Club president Erik VanKuijk welcomed members and our guest speaker Michael Allen. Erik VanKuijk reminded members that they can join our Zoom meetings early each Wednesday at 11:45 for social time. Please refer to the schedule for our new meeting feature called "member moments." We look forward to any information members wish to share through member moments segments.
There will be a club meeting next Wednesday, Oct. 7, at noon with a speaker to be announced.
Carole P reported on the District 5950 Local Grants Committee on which she, Carol C-H and Jean W serve. Since July, the committee has approved over $139,000 in grant funds to area Rotary clubs sponsoring local community and small (under $30,000) international grants. The committee has an additional $83,000 in funding available this fiscal year. The donations Rotarians make to the organization each year come back to us in the form of funds for grants to implement service projects that improve people's lives here and around the world.
