Business Meeting, March 3, 2010

We had 22 CLK Rotarians attending and no guests.

Happy Dollars were collected from Tom T, Andy, and Pastor Pete (Pete skied his 18th Birkibeiner Ski Race of 50km this past weekend). We also celebrated 1 birthday this month – Andy Murtagh. We sang Happy birthday in both English and Canadian.

President Jim announced that 6 members had perfect attendance for Feb and the Club attendance reached 61%. He appreciates the makeups he has received. The makeup, he noted, helps with the Club’s attendance.

Treasurer Joel announced the Club’s checking balance = $4689.22 and Savings =$195.46. All known bills have been paid.

SPAGHETTI DINNER IS FRIDAY MARCH 12! We will be serving from 1pm to 8pm on Friday March 12 at the Irish Times. The Copper Dog 150 racers will be drawing for starting positions at the Irish Times on that date and we will be feeding them and serving from 1pm – 8pm. Workers will be in 2 shifts: Shift 1 is from 12 noon to 5pm and we have 7 of the 10 Rotarians we need for this shift. Shift 2 is from 5pm – 9pm and 10 Rotarians are needed. Please notify Kevin Store or Tim Baroni for your work preference.

Baked goods and desserts are needed! A request to all our Rotarians: Please bring a dessert to the dinner. It is best to bring things like cookies or bars that are easy to serve. Bring your dessert to the Irish Times when you come to work your shift.

President Jim announced the Board had received several requests for donations including Little Brothers, Boy Scouts, Bay Cliff and Main Street Calumet. Several of the requests were submitted by form letter with no specific information resulting in the Board’s decision to not fund those particular requests.

Sue Dana asked for time at a future CLK Membership meeting to give a presentation on main Street Calumet. That meeting date will be in 2 weeks.

President Jim reminded the membership that Board meetings are held at Range Bank in Calumet at 4pm on the 3rd Tuesday of each month. Board meetings are open to the membership.

The monthly 50/50 raffle was won by Kathy Johnson
