Membership and Money!
To me, those are the two significant takeaways from last week’s Annual Business Meeting.
What was yours?
Much information was shared by all presenters: Finance, Membership, Social, Community Service, Fund Raising, Program, Publicity, New Generations, Endowment, and Rotary Foundation. There were comments on administration and alternate meeting sites/times. Going forward, plans to address Club issues were also highlighted.
But, with our numbers down and running a deficit there are a lot of challenges to overcome if we want to keep our Rotary Club appealing to our members and attract new ones whether they be “Millennials”, “Gen Xer’s” or “Boomers”. The state of the Club was thoroughly presented. I am grateful to all the chairs for their reports and especially their efforts to lead their committees. Club 11 should be proud of the work they’ve done and we need to be ready to commit to support their efforts.
We are “People of Action.”
What was your takeaway? Do you still have questions? Do you have suggestions? What actions are you ready to undertake for Rotary?

That was last week’s President’s Corner in which I solicited your questions and/or suggestions for Club 11. So far, I have received NONE. Not a question. Not a suggestion. I’m not sure what to make of that.
