The Board held its monthly meeting last week.
The main topic was a collaboration between our Club and the City of Overland Park Parks and Recreation on the replacement of the tree markers at the City Forest area at 119th and Quivira. This would be a multi year project to refurbish that area with the main items being replacement of the existing tree markers, installation of a park bench and the installation of a sign that identifies our club and what we do in the community. It will involve 6-8 people for a few hours 3 times in the fall. If you have ever wanted to learn how to use an angle grinder, now is your chance. Stay tuned for more details.
Ed Gilmore would like some help with boots on the ground for our service projects. Let's give him a hand. Please contact Ed.
Now that we are getting started on our new dues structure this is a good tie to:
1. Let Sara know if you want her to add $25 per quarter that will go toward Rotary International "Every Rotarian Every Year" campaign. We are shooting for all members to give $100 per year to meet our obligation. Please let Sara know and she will take it from there.
2. If you want to give $25 per quarter or any other amount to The Community Uplift Foundation, let Sara know and she can also add it to your quarterly invoice.
3. We are trying to make sure that we are documenting attendance and meal charges correctly, so please note. If you attend and want a meal, mark the check in sheet with a "X". If you attend and do not want a meal, then put a "O" behind your name.
Thank you to all of you for your service and commitment to making our community great.
