Interim Secretary Needed
 
Let a Board member know by Monday Jan. 9th if you are interested in serving the remainder of the Secretary’s term effective now through June 30th.
 
Deborah Perini our current Secretary has accepted a new position with another company that will allow her to work from home with a new schedule and will be stepping down from Rotary. She will be missed, and we genuinely appreciate all Deb did for WRWR!
 
Role of the Secretary involves:
  • Taking and keepings minutes of our Board Meetings
  • Updating information in Club Runner (i.e., Member Lists, meeting/service project attendance)
  • Club correspondence (i.e., dues/foundation/membership notices)
  • Complete Secretary Training on Rotary.org
