First things first. Since I am so late in getting the meeting location out for this week I am trying to post it everywhere. So, I will start this message by telling you that the evening meeting for this month, May 3rd, will be at Galyn’s, in the rear, second floor room at 5 p.m. I hope to see you all there!
I was pondering what I was going to write about this week, with nothing really coming to mind as usual, but I did remember that a while back, somebody, somewhere, commented that they would like to see the minutes from the Club’s Board meetings accessible to the club members. While they are available on our ClubRunner site (and yes, we are working on getting them posted sooner after Board meetings) something else occurred to me.
What occurred to me is that I have never seen a Club member, who is not a Board member (except Joe Losquadro), at a Board meeting. So, I wanted to remind everyone that any Club member can attend a Board meeting and watch the preceedings. While minutes are great for educating people on what was addressed at Board meetings, actually attending one may be enlightening (and possibly entertaining) for some. If you have never been to one of our Club’s Board meetings, you have an open invitation to drop in any time.

Rotary Club Central offered clubs and districts a quantifiable way to begin measuring local and global impact, specifically membership initiatives, service activities, and Rotary Foundation giving.
But as with any technological advancement, in a few short years, Rotary Club Central began to show its age, and Rotarians took notice. They...
At its January 2017 meeting, the Rotary International Board of Directors adopted a new zone structure for Rotary clubs.
Rotary bylaws require the Board to complete a comprehensive review of the 34 Rotary zones no less often than every eight years to ensure that each zone has an approximately equal number of Rotarians. The Board’s previous review of the zones occurred in 2008.
The Board earlier approved the creation of three regional workgroups to develop rezoning proposals for Asia, Europe/Africa, and the Americas. These workgroups comprised one representative (either a current director,...
