CLUB VIDEO:  Peter Bartling and Dave Kiser from CCX Media are putting together a video to promote our club.  This video will allow us to build upon the media footprint established with Sun Sailor publications and social media including Facebook and our website.  Rotary members will be interviewed this week and edited with past images of our club's activities.  The end product will allow us to share with businesses and community organizations to build upon membership.  Thank you to the Bartling family for sponsoring this project.
 
BOARD POSITIONS: Nominated Co-Presidents Glen Norton and John Schoonover are already planning.  Ideas include enhancement of our weekly speakers with information that is not publicly known, using Zoom to bring in worldly experts, back-in-person meetings once conditions allow, resume card game, fines, and happy fines plus surveys of club members to confirm hobbies, interest. 
 
SCHOLARSHIPS:  Meena, Virginia, Liz, Al and Kevin coordinated interviews with applicants this past Monday and will update the club.
 
HEART SAFE:  Heart Safe has adjusted sessions that allow for more participants in following CDC and state COVID guidelines.  Currently three of the four remaining sessions are WAITLIST, but the Saturday session in May has two openings.  Participants are screened and must register to attend.  Sessions are now limited to 20 individuals. Thank you to Norm, Russ, Steve B., Steve M. and Don for coordinating.  Click here for more details.
