What Did You Miss – September 22, 2025

Chair: Phil Warren

Presentation – Phil presented on Club Business – Strategic Planning

Tables each made a brief report on their thoughts on the strategic planning process:

Suggestions: Invite suggestions from members in advance, accountability, progress reports and check ins with committees.

Benefits: Consistency, getting new members involved, etc.

Phil reviewed some of the recommendations from the previous process and Greg explained the upcoming process for the strategic planning committee. 

Happy $:

Kimberley: Thanks to those who reached out to her on the loss of her father. 

Roxy: Food drive on the weekend, there were lots of Rotarians and lots of support.

Greg W: Updated the club on a client with the Persons with Disabilities committee that finally received a new wheelchair after a long wait!

Greg: Told a story about getting his puppy on the weekend and the kindness of strangers. 

Greg T: Two happy dollars: he has the world’s best great-grandchild and he sold his boat. Sad dollar: John O’Hara, previous club member, passed away last week. 

Illnesses:

Craig has been ill, and Stephen has had a cardiac event but is doing okay. Keep them in mind! 😊
