UPDATE/MEETING in person: In checking with Crowne Plaza, the cost to hold our two in-person meetings exceeds our planning. We are reviewing options and will share updates at Thursday's meeting and by email. We plan to have in-person meetings on Thursday, May 13th and Thursday, June 10th and hope to include hybrid (virtual availability) meeting on those dates, but if we meet outside, that may not be possible. CDC and Minnesota state COVID guidelines will be followed.
ROTARY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION: Our Club YTD giving is $5,235.00 which equals $133/Member, considering this is coming from 13 Members, the numbers are pretty impressive. Now the hard part, we are running behind the District average of $141/Member – we need to catch-up – according to RI we have 24 Members who have not made their contribution this year. Please consider going to MY.ROTARY.ORGand making your annual contribution to some of the great projects Rotary International is supporting on our behalf.
