CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE RAM'S HORN
Each year the goal of the web page and the newsletter is to report on the club’s activities. The role of the newsletter is to inform and educate. Why not try doing it, you will like it. One of the most important tools that should be given to every member is an updated member book at the first meeting in July. How can members understand Rotary unless they have a copy? Why not send the member book electronically? There seems to be confusion as to the operating and foundation budgets. Every member should have a clear understanding what funds go to operations and which go to the foundation. There seems to be puzzlement as to how the annual budgets are presented and approved. Reporting the results of a fund raising event should be right after the event or ASAP. If budgets are completed using accepted principles, it should be rare to have budget meetings.
