- Business:
- Maddy sent the new link for meetings. The same link will be used until June 2021.
- Dues are due, send them to carol by etransfer to wanetatrailrotary@gmail.com. It is $120 each for the next six months.
- We have a gaming account set up for Bingo. There are some restrictions on what we can use the money for.
- We want to get a picture with the Salvation Army hamper we gave to a family at Christmas. Maddy will organize it.
- bingo is not making huge money for us yet, but it should generate some income. Juris will report next week on how much we are making. It is still a good initiative as it makes money for other Rotary clubs. Maddy will send out a poster for members to put up around the community.
- GTRAC meeting will happen soon. Consensus among our members was that we wait until covid is over.
- PETS is coming up for Juris. It will be online with 4 evenings in February.
- Rick Calhoun and ex Beaver Valley Rotarian is interested in joining us to see how we do things. Juris will send him the link.
