Annual Meeting Monday Feb 21
At Monday's meeting we will be conducting our "Annual Meeting" required to elect officers for the Rotary Year beginning on July 1, 2022. Our nominating committee has provided a full slate of candidates. No reason to stay away -- this will take just a few minutes -- and your attendance will ensure we meet the quorum required by our Bylaws. 
Missed Meeting Makeups
 Now that we are again prebilling for meals, if you miss a meeting you can do a makeup which will give you an attendance credit and a meal credit. When you do a makeup, notify our secretary (Sue Sippel) with documentation of your makeup, and let her know what meeting your makeup is for. (If you are attending our meeting via Zoom you will automatically get credit for that meeting). Here are some additional options for doing a makeup:
  • Attend another Rotary Club (be sure to get paperwork from them that you can turn in to our Secretary)
  • Attend a Board meeting,
  • Attend an e-club meeting. (https://www.rotaryeclubone.org/makeups gives a makeup when you spend 30 minutes on their website reading articles or watching videos).
  • Participate in a service project.
Join Membership Committee
Our Club's Membership Committee is looking for some new members to join the discussion of how to recruit and retain members. The committee will also be working on a club survey to find out what our members enjoy about our club, what things should stay the same, and what things should change. The Membership Committee will be meeting early in March - let Warren or Sue Sippel know if you would like to join us. Your input would be appreciated!
Prize Sponsors Needed
Our Foundation is looking for businesses to sponsor cash prizes ($50 - $1000) for our May Calendar Raffle. Can you help? Contact Matt Ironside (mdironside@uwalumni.com) if your business (or another business you know) would like to sponsor a day on the calendar.
