| It was nice to hear Sandra Moon from 2AY speak so enthusiastically about her life and work last week. Also good to see the attendance figures going upwards again, albeit it included ‘make ups’ etc, but these make ups are for various community based work so are all-important for end of year returns. A small ‘ steering committee’ of your Directors met late last week to start discussions on a longer term ‘Strategic ‘plan for the club. At the moment things are in a very embryonic stage, but you will be fully advised of when the proposal has been more fully discussed by the Board in readiness for you as members to participate in open discussion at a Club Assembly meeting. I am also proposing to hold another club members ‘scatter’ evening sometime in August. To our newer members, this is where we cancel our usual Wednesday lunchtime meeting here at SS&A, and members are free to choose whatever Rotary club they wish to attend as part of the evening and again see what other clubs are up to during their meetings, and report back to members of our club advising on how you felt we compared to them. To gain a wider perspective of both Rotary and its workings please try and go to a different club than your previous visit. I haven’t yet set a date but expect it to certainly be before this year is exhausted. |
