As the National Anthem began, members quickly joined in for another rousing start to the meeting.

This was promptly followed by at toast to the Country and Rotary after which, Peter gave the invocation.

 

Today`s table conversation included Ribfest, Ken`s recent move to Cambridge (now, Sean`s neighbour) and some other topics I scribbled down but can`t read.

Christmas Party - The Christmas Party is booked for Friday Dec. 7 at The Pines. The cost is $60 per person. President Mike sent out a link for registration. Please register ASAP for another great Christmas celebration.

 

Hams, Cakes and Cookies - Flyers have been sent out to all members. Please sell, sell, sell (Gerry has already sold 24 cakes and 50 hams). The packing day is scheduled for Saturday Dec. 15 at Deanco in Waterloo.

 

President Mike is looking for a Liason between Cambridge North Rotary and the local Rotaract Club. The committment is to attend their monthly meetings. Please contact Mike if you are interested or need more information.

 

 

We are preparing to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with the Sunrise Rotary Club to go forward with next summer`s Ribfest but we have several important positions that need to be filled  ... Chair of Fundraising and chair of Marketing. These positions were filled by Sean and Mark Rozad, both of whom will not be continuing in these roles going forward.

 

These are pivotal roles and need to be filled before the end of November. Please consider helping in these critical roles. Contact Sean, Mark or Dean.

We did not have a formal speaker today.

 

But, we did have Dave Thomas go over parts of the budget today. Dave provided copies of the budget for our perusal. There was some discussion about how to handle our annual giving to Rotary Foundation (sustaining club and sustaining member donations).
