Changes - As there is a zoom meeting each week and you can attend unannounced we are streamlining the number and type of notices until we resume "in person"  meetings. Four points to remember
1. The zoom link is the same each week. Save it for use at any meeting.
2. The link will be in Rota-Buzz each week
2. The weekly meeting link is also on the club website as "join us online"
3. A text reminder will be sent on Monday for those who have a cell phone number on ClubRunner.
 
Here is the meeting link to hear Craig Dalton, City Manager with an update on City Affairs.

Attendance/Engagement for the past quarter has been 35% and readership on Club communications 50%. These are challenging times that have upset many of our routines and pleasures. While Zoom is certainly not as engaging as a "live meeting" it is a place where you find your Rotary friends every Monday! We also welcome your suggestions for additions or changes to frequency or format. killoran.rotary@gmail.com
