Program
Scott Johnson and Mark Marlin
Fundraising internal club meeting led by Mark Marlin and Scott Johnson.
Glen Lake golf course currently a no-go for scramble format, must follow social distancing guidelines, will see what the summer brings leading up to September.
Chris R. had a suggestion for socially distanced, staggered foursomes at Glen Lake with perhaps offsite food/beverage at Unmapped Brewery.
We’re also looking to beef up raffle ticket sales.
Not doing silent auction/gift baskets but will funnel those items to the raffle tickets.
Call to order – need club members to align with one of four areas of fundraising focus:
Golf, raffle, other event such as Unmapped Brewing or online virtual improv show by Stevie Ray Vaughn, and online virtual bingo series.
Other considerations – hope to resume Summerfest beer sales in June 2021, might consider pushing the golf event date to early summer 2021 timeframe.
Next committee meeting – 6/4 @ 5pm via Zoom and live from Unmapped Brewery.
Next Meeting
Next week’s program preview – Hopkins Fire Chief.
Adjournment
8:30am – meeting adjourned by Stacey and members go about their Rotarian ways!
