The Club needs your help!  Sign up on the online club Duty Rosters

Ah, the “good old days” of signing up on clipboards!  Now the club has an online Duty Roster where you can sign up to help with club meetings.  The Duty Roster appears in a window on the Home page of the club website.

For every meeting, we need Rotarians to help with tasks such as

  • Greeter (welcoming people as they join our virtual meeting)

  • Leading the Pledge of Allegiance or the Four-Way Test

  • Offering up a Rotary minute.

Please lend a hand by taking the initiative to sign up on the online Duty Rosters.

 

Speakers!

Scott Gough does a terrific job of arranging the speakers for our meetings, but he relies on our help.  If you have any ideas for speakers you think the club would enjoy, please let Scott know: sgough33@aol.com
