September 22, 2016

 
This Week's Program:  
 
Originally, we had scheduled General Hamlar to speak on September 22nd. Unfortunately, he now has a conflict and will be unable to appear. 
 
Instead, we will take this week an opportunity to conduct ongoing AED training for our club members.  Recall that after our fundraiser on September 24, we will begin focusing our efforts on our Plymouth HeartSafe Program, in partnership with the City of Plymouth.  Our two primary club goals are to have an impact on Plymouth and increase members and our HeartSafe program has the capacity to do just that.  The more members we have trained, the better advocates we can be for the program.  
 
This Past Week, September 15, 2016:  
 
We did not have our regularly schedule third meeting of the month last week in order to accommodate planned speaker's schedule.  The previous week, Dr. Tamim Saidi, of the Northwest Islamic Community Center (NWICC) in Plymouth was our guest speaker and spoke on the topic of Muslims in Minnesota.

Club Website:  Please take the time to visit the club website.  We have now been using the Club Runner website format for a number of months.  Jason Cardwell, our President Elect, has updated the website to reflect this week's and next week's speakers.  It is important for everyone to spend some time on the site and let Bala Guntapali and me know what information is missing and what information should be updated.  www.RotaryPlymouth.org

Quarterly Invoices:  Please pay quarterly invoices promptly.  The Board continues to work with members that have outstanding balances.

ClubRunner Member Profiles:  Preview your member profile on the ClubRunner website for accuracy and update any missing data.
