Survey Results
Over the last month we have solicited members to complete a club survey. Based on the survey results, there is very strong support for moving the weekly club meeting from lunch to breakfast. The board of directors took an informal poll and unanimously supports this position. However, before taking a formal vote on November 17, the board would like to give members an additional opportunity to comment. Please feel free to contact any board member who will share your comments with the board at large. As a reminder, board members are: Pat Knight, Jason Cardwell, Peter Bartling, Jim Bird, Jeff Wosje, Bala Guntapali, Bruce Behm and Steve Juetten.
General Information:
Club Website: Please take the time to visit the club website. We have now been using the Club Runner website format for a number of months. Jason Cardwell, our President Elect, has updated the website to reflect this week's and next week's speakers. It is important for everyone to spend some time on the site and let Bala Guntapali and me know what information is missing and what information should be updated. www.RotaryPlymouth.org
Quarterly Invoices:Please pay quarterly invoices promptly. The Board continues to work with members that have outstanding balances.
ClubRunner Member Profiles:Preview your member profile on the ClubRunner website for accuracy and update any missing data. Contact President Pat Knight with any questions you may have.
