It has been a little while since I have been able to post A Look Inside The Board. Mother Nature had different plans for us in March but in April, she gave us a pass. Here is A Look Inside The Board.
Semisonic put it well when they said: Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end (Must be my inner 14 year old coming out in me). Another Rotary year is quickly coming to an end. It feels like we were just welcoming in Shannon as our President and soon we will be ushering in the year of Jay. The framework is being set for Jay's Board.
Not only is Rotary starting a new year soon but Rotary on a whole is looking at the way business as usual has been done and saying "What is right for your club?" Jay had attended the President Elect Training in March. One of the main topics was having flexibility in how the club is ran and making necessary changes to make each unique club work the way they see fit. One of the big items talked about in relation to flexibility at The Board meeting was not having a meeting to just have a meeting which I feel we all can get behind. More on this to come at a later date.
RJ update:
- Sponsorships are at a slow clip right now (around $32,500 committed and $4,500 currently collected) but with the work being done by the sponsorship team and everyone keeping their eyes and ears open for opportunities, we will kill it this year

- We absolutely killed it last year at Triple B (I am still going with this name.... just rolls off the tongue) and because of that we are doing it again. Get your selling shoes on for Triple B (Beers, Brats and Bingo)!
