Feb. 1st Announcements
Posted by Vicki Rowe
Keith shared copies of th by-laws with everyone and discussed the need to establish a set number of directors for future board composition. He recommended only one director. The board is composed of officers and includes the past president and president elect as well as current president, secretary, treasurer, and sergeant at arms. With the additional one director there would be seven voting members, so ties would be avoided. Keith also recognized the efforts of Tom Benson and Gary Gray in the smooth operation of the club. Tom, as past president, and Gary as president elect have both been instrumental in helping Keith lead the club this year.
D. Ray Young updated everyone on the layette bags which will be sent to Guatemala in the near future. He told us that the contributions pledged by members will be billed on our next invoice. He also told us that we will have an opportunity to help him assemble the bags.
Both Vickie Botkin and Justin Jenkins praised the Gulf Coast Leadership Institute which they attended this past weekend. They recognized Glen Rowe, who was one of the facilitators, and told us that they recommend this program to any Rotarian who has been a member for fewer than five years and who wants to lead eventually. There will be another institute in September, and we hope that two more members will step up and attend.
Keith, David, and Chris Benson assembled the shelving for CAM this past week. We were able to get a district level grant to help pay for this much-needed shelving.
Next Tuesday there will be a Board meeting at Keith's office. Everyone can attend this meeting. New members are encouraged to do so in order to fulfill their Red Badge requirements.
