In addition to his leadership in these areas, writes Principal Christine Bell, what stands out about Mr. Green is his thoughtful and reflective nature. He listens carefully, particularly to students, and is a leader on our staff. You might find him supervising concessions so that his clubs can earn funds for trips, managing the student store, or teaching students how to plan for and run their own businesses. Meet this wonderful educator and his administrators on Monday, May 15, when the club holds its annual recognition ceremony for outstanding educators.
The major options are the Rotary Avenues of Service committees: community service, club service, international service, youth service, and vocational service. In addition, there are other committees such as membership and programs and speakers through which to contribute your time and talent for the betterment of the club. These standing committees are separate from the rummage sale teams to which we've assigned ourselves for this season. Please respond to the survey so that the club's volunteer structure is established before the new year is upon us.
In two recent surveys, club members leaned toward one club event per quarter. Given the popularity of the holiday party (and its linkage to holiday gift giving), the salmon bake, and Bunko, our club service team has about one more event to select and schedule. It will be particularly important that you weigh in as to how you'd prefer spend your event time with fellow Rotarians, and possibly others in our community. Because this survey will be based on a review of nearly ten years of Rotary events, there may be a fair number of choices from which to select your preferences. Please take time to provide your viewpoint so that the club service team can operate from a better base of knowledge of club members' preferences. 
The club’s board of directors held a special meeting the evening of Wednesday, May 3, 2023, via Zoom. The limited purpose special meeting was held to consider the report of the board's nominating committee, and approve the recommended slate of officers and Avenues of Service committee heads. The board also considered several options for returning to QuickBooks for club budgeting and accounting, and approved a proposal to purchase an annual license for the Plus version that provides budgeting, accounting, and comparative reporting.
