[Rotary] Subject: Notes of Todays Meeting and Tree Lighting on Saturday

[Jeffry Stubbs]

Hi all,
Today we had our last regular club meeting of 2022, convened by Executive President Gary Hopper
Members attending: Gary, Toby, Mike, Margaret, Jerry, Leona, Ray, Brandt, Jeff, John C. (10 persons).
After preliminaries we hosted the Mendocino Choir which sang Christmas songs. 
Many thanks to Gary for arranging this and for the choir including Rotarian John Cottle for putting us in the mood.
We will have a tree lighting ceremony in the Park on Saturday at 5:00. Members will bring eggnog, brandy, coffee and cookies. 
Let's all be there.
Jeff thanked members and especially Margaret for helping with the warm clothing drive. The clothes collected, contained in 15-20 bags, which fill the back of an SUV, will be delivered to Hospitality House for the Street Medicine Program tomorrow. 
Member dues were collected again. If you have not paid in, as of today, you will be subject to a notice of termination which will be acted upon by the Board on December 29. 
Gary noted that we had not paid the Church for the meeting venue. Toby will ask Matt for an invoice, which we will pay before the end of the year. Gary suggested we pay $1,200 which is $900 in rent plus a bonus of $300 to recognize the steps the church has taken to help us out. 
Jeff passed on a check from Fort Bragg Rotary for $2,000 which is for purpose of helping with our international projects. He is talking with Vanuatu and Fiji to see how this can best be used.
The next meeting of the club will be a Board meeting on Thursday January 29. The meeting will be open to all members.
Topics for discussion by the Board: Financial position, key expenditure items (community services, youth services, international services, club services), budget).  
Please attend the tree lighting this Saturday evening, December 17 at 5:00 in the Park. 
Bring a friend, and 
See you there.
