Discussion:
1. Susan
Marks: Should we possibly partner with the Lion’s Club on a Millcreek Fourth of
July celebration next year? Those assembled seemed open to the idea. Julie
Jones might have a Lion’s Club contact.
2. Judy
Zone, who will be District Governor in 2021-2022, reminded members that the
DG’s club is responsible for organizing District Conference in May of the
Rotary Year. So Millcreek’s District Conference would be May 2022.
Judy said she has some
initial thoughts but is open to ideas:
· She’d
like the Convention to happen somewhere in Millcreek – but is there a facility
that can accommodate 200-250 people with possible breakouts? Please be thinking
about that.
· She
would like this Convention to be an opportunity for the club to partner with
Millcreek businesses and organizations, to raise the profile of our club and
possibly attract new members through their involvement with the event.
· She
would like to have a service project, possibly with Millcreek Promise and/or
Sunnyvale Center – or others – as a focus of the Convention.
· She
would like speakers on social issues – similar to what Scott Leckman did in May
2019. The issues can be linked to Rotary topics or causes, but not more lecture
on Rotary programs directly. High profile speakers are a draw, so be thinking.
· Shannon
offered to organize a hike in Millcreek Canyon on Saturday or Sunday morning.
Most likely Sunday, as Saturday is a full day for District Conference, and most
people ‘dress up’ for District Conference.
Judy also wants club
members to be thinking if they would like to be involved in District positions,
as they are available that year.
Adjourn to bowling at
Olympus Hills Lanes.
