Club Assembly

Last week we held our Club Assembly. The following items were discussed:

Treasurer's Report: Bob Carris informed the club that Touch a Truck was financially successful with the generous profits going to fund the goals of the Churchill HS Interact Club. Bob also mentioned that our club’s coffers are full and prepared to fund our grant needs for the year.

Giving Committee: Larry Stephens told us two grant requests were approved last month; Livonia Kids and Families, and the Stuckey Center Day Treatment Program. Both grant requests were approved by the Giving Committee, the Board of Directors, and the general membership.

We discussed two upcoming club-sponsored events:

• The KCAH meal packing event at St. Edith’s’ is on October 15, 2022. We need a few more Rotarians to sign up if we are to have a full Rotary assembly line. A reminder, we start work at 9:00 AM, and we should arrive at 8:30 AM to sign in.
  

• World Polio Day Community Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser for Polio eradication is Saturday, October 15, 2022. So far, we have 13 club members signed up to work on this event.
