[Rotary] Subject: Rotary Board Meeting this Thursday

[Jeffry Stubbs]

All,
I just sent off the below when I got another piece of relevant news. The County Health Dept has increased as of yesterday (Sept 22) the size of the allowable "stable bubble" to 12. We have 11 Board members, and a few may miss the meeting. I am hoping others who have not been zooming or who have things to present to the Board will attend, so we should be around 12 persons in total. If we are over 12 we will create a second "stable bubble".
Hoping this works for all of us.

 Dear John,
I note your concerns and perhaps this is something we should discuss as a club.
We would be outside, respect the 6'distance rule and wear masks except when we are eating or drinking. 
I have a microphone app for my iPhone which we tried to use in our last meeting in the park, now I know how it works and it is LOUD!!
We will bring sanitizers, relax and have fun.
There will be an opening gong, and we will collect fines.
If some people cannot/will not come perhaps we can do a hybrid meeting with zoom using Susan's wifi. 
Lets keep talking about this!!

 As much as I wanted to embrace such a thing, upon reflection I am hesitant and suspect others may be also.  The county guidelines (which I copied Jeff a few days ago) are specific as to the few types of events allowed, and the limit of 6 persons does not specify public vs private location.  How exactly do we keep 6' apart in a car?  And once we are there, all keeping 6' apart, can everyone hear everyone else?  If I am the only outlier, I will park a mile or two away and bicycle the rest of the way to Susan's.  However I am pretty certain Harold will not come.  
Rotarians are by definition community leaders, and need to lead by example.  Sorry to be a wet blanket here, but I think the 6 person and 6' rules make sense.  If everyone complied, we wouldn't have a pandemic.

All,
I did a little checking, again, to see if we could use an outdoor park venue for our Board meeting this Thursday, and found that the County Health Department limit on a gathering of unrelated persons is 6 which cuts out park venues. I called North Coast Brewery, which has a large dining area in their parking lot, and asked the same question: could we be allocated an area there where we could hold our meeting, and the answer was "no" due to County Health Dept restrictions.
Susan Keller and Toby Wade have both volunteered to let us their properties for an outdoor meeting with social distancing and masks. We can have pizza as we did when we met in June. Both properties are a little distant for some of us, but I propose we take them up on their generous offers for our next two Board meetings. So it will be 
Susan's at 40450 Little River Road on September 24 and Toby and Leona's in Albion at the first opportunity after that. 
We will order pizza and charge the cost to participants. 
At Susan's please come with someone else to minimize parking. If a few of us bring camp chairs that will help too.
I will bring pizza and water, a table to serve them on and a table for Rotary stuff. Also beer and wine.
We will meet at 12:00 as usual. Setup at 11:30, could use another person to help out.
This is a chance to get some of our members who do not zoom get involved again in our club. 
Agenda will cover funds drive, membership drive, social events, honorary membership for Suzanne Zehm, the Covid-19 project and events in the Park.
Please let me or Mike know if this doesn't work for you, or if you have other items for the agenda. If Thursday at Susan's doesn't work for some of us who work we could probably meet on Saturday.
See you there.
