Word from Jenna is that the grant for our bike rack(s) has been approved.

Golf Tournament
There was a brief frost delay to the start, but otherwise, the day went well.
There was some confusion with the “fun holes” that could be solved with better communication next time.
Daryl (Spence) has the prizes under control.
There are approx. $1200.00 to use for prizes.
Several of the players complimented Rotary for getting the tournament. It wasn’t expected this year.
Had to turn away 6 teams.
We achieved the goals that we wanted:
Put Rotary “out there”.
Acknowledge our business community.

We should solicit our donors to transfer their donations via e-transfer.
Should organise this for the event night to take place after Christmas.
Suggest running the “call for projects” and “call for donors” concurrently.
Hold the event the last week of January.
Best to complete the switching over of our bank accounts first before we start calling for donors.
Banking
Switch-over is already in the works.
Discussions and presentation of necessary documentation has already begun.
Dues
Holding off sending out dues until we complete the banking switch over.
