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.  To assist, Dwain Erickson and Diane Moyer can shoot smart phone photographs of members whose photos are missing in the Club Membership roster. Is your photo missing??
