Last Thursday's Annual Assembly was Awesome!
Sunrise held its annual Assembly at our regular meeting on January 17, 2019. A number of club members provided reports about the club’s well-being, including Paul O’Rear, Marty Behr, Jennifer Adams, Randy Seelye, Penny Millar, among others. The good news is that we have a great club and we are moving forward with many great projects.
We also have a great leadership team devoted to improving the club and moving forward with these goals. Paul discussed the Putting on the Ritz v.2, now scheduled for April 27 at the Glaser Center. Paul has a great team for a magnificent follow-up to last year’s successful event. Paul also addressed our efforts to achieve the Presidential Citation this year. Penny updated our club financials, which are doing well. Carolyn Anderson's report included our successful charitable giving results.

Randy discussed our Foundation donation numbers; we are currently 5th in the District for Polio Plus contributions and looking to move up! Our matching points program has increased giving, but it expires at the end of the month so we are hoping for more donations. Jennifer updated our current projects, including the Food Bank, Guerneville winter shelter dinners, Glenn Oaks Ranch, among others. Marty focused on our efforts to increase membership. Marty’s team has set up a ‘speaker’s bureau’ group to identify and schedule super speakers each month. He noted that it is likely that our program featuring Francesco Lecce-Chong resulted in three new members, so we want to keep improving our speakers and inviting guests to hear these great speakers! Marty also asked us to complete a questionnaire relating to ‘Initiating New Forms of Membership.” President Rich put together a great team to summarize our past results and future goals, so many thanks to all for contributing your time and efforts to this great club!
BTW, who was that up front by Leroy??
