Greetings, Rotarians!
 
Our next meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, February 12th, at 12 p.m. in the Boardroom at the Atlantic Oceanside Hotel. Lunch will include chicken a la king and banana cream pie for dessert.
 
We met on Wednesday, February 5th, to vote on proposed bylaws revisions and our slate of officers for 2025-2026. Members present included Barbara Fox, Dick Fox, Martha Abbott, Chris White, Mike Staggs, Lynn Verrill, Colleen Maynard, Dean Read, Annette Higgins, Lisa Horsch Clark, Scott Hammond, Ron Wrobel, Evelyn Swan, Robert Recholtz, Liz Graves and Ann Tikkanen. 
 
Bylaws Revisions
  • Discussion – The Board of Directors provided an update about the revisions they proposed, mainly to reduce the size of the Board since we are a smaller club now, and to update the duties of the Secretary and Treasurer to more accurately reflect the tasks that Martha and Ron currently perform.
  • Vote – There were 11 members present at the time of this vote, and by a show of hands, all 11 members approved the bylaws revisions.
Slate of Officers for 2025-2026 
  • President – Annette Higgins
  • President-Elect – Evelyn Swan
  • Treasurer – Ron Wrobel
  • Secretary – Martha Abbott
  • Directors (choose 3) – Scott Hammond, Chris White, Colleen Maynard, or write in
  • Past President – Lynn Verrill
Discussion – None.
Vote – There were 16 members present at the time of this vote, and by written ballot, all 16 members approved the slate of officers listed above for 2025-2026.
 
Please let me know if you have any news or announcements for future Bulletins.
 
Have a good week!
