Minutarian Week 13: September 27, 2021

Don’t Forget Your Goals!

It has been brought to my attention that a few clubs still have not entered their goals in Rotary Club Central at www.Rotary.org/My Rotary  I would ask that if you have not done so yet, please log in and do so now. We at least need membership and Foundation goals entered, this will allow us to help you achieve your goals. Thank you in advance! https://rcc.rotary.org/#/dashboard

Directions on how to enter your goals are here. Click to read GOALS.

Take Action for World Polio Day: 24 October

Every year, the Rotary community mobilizes for World Polio Day to raise awareness about global efforts to end polio for good. If we stay committed, we can make polio the second human disease ever to be eradicated.?? Plan your participation and ?join the effort to ensure that every child receives the polio vaccine and help end polio by organizing a World Polio Day event or fundraiser or other promotional activities.

One advantage of online events: They allow us to expand our reach even more and inspire others to join with Rotary.??Use the World Polio Day Toolkit to start planning and promoting your activities now. https://www.endpolio.org/world-polio-day

Pic of the Week
No Clay Pigeons were injured in the production of this Rotary event.

However, it was not for lack of trying. I had a great time with Barry Covington and John Pope form South Jacksonville Rotary, while “competing” at the Rotary Club of Southpoint’s 19th Annual Clay Shoot.
