We will have a social in lieu of our normal meeting this week. The Social this week has been changed from Friday the 28th to Thursday the 27th and will be at Arabesque, 2930 Devine Street from 5:00-6:30. A big shout out to Teri & Sara for coordinating! Also, please note that Board voted last Friday to charge R-85 members and all guests for all upcoming Socials. The charge will vary depending on the cost of the Socials and next Thursday will be $10.00. All non R-85 members will remain free of charge. In additional to charging for Socials, the Board voted on several items as we head into the new Rotary year and these are listed below. As discussed at the Club Assembly, the Club has to make some adjustments to keep us on a solid financial footing for the future.
• Quarterly dues will increase from $60.00 to $75.00. It has been well over 10 years since our last dues increase.
• Service fees for electronic payments on quarterly dues will now be passed along to the club members. These will be in then 3% range. In the past the club absorbed these fees.
Lastly, we have some changes to our Parking Project. Robert Lentz is stepping away as Captain for the parking project but will remain on the Parking Committee. Jill Michels will now serve as Captain so please direct any parking related questions to Jill. This change is in place now. Thank you to Jill & Robert for their service!
