One of our newer members, John Johnson, has ideas for making the New Brighton Mounds View Rotary more appealing to new members, especially younger ones. He will be presenting his ideas at the May 24th noon meeting. His recommendations involve substantial changes in meeting frequency, time and format. Input from the entire membership would be helpful to determine our way forward. Please make every effort to attend this important meeting!
Next week’s presenter (May 10th) will be Mike Whilhelmi from Xcel Energy.
We will not be meeting on May 31st due to the Memorial Day holiday.
On June 28th, the meeting will be in Nyle Zikmund’s beautiful back yard in Blaine. The Board meeting scheduled for that day will be rescheduled.
