♦ PRESIDENT RAHDERT reported on Every Rotarian Every Year progress. We have made a good start. Those who have not contributed can make the figures look better.

♦ Backpack distribution will be on Thursday this week. Volunteers are needed at 2:00 p.m.

♦ The attendance at the coaches' luncheons is very low. If you have opinions about how to improve it or if we should continue to participate, please convey them to someone on the board.

♦ Members attending the District conference on Saturday should meet at Best Western between 7:00 and 7:15 in the morning.

♦ TERRY WEST reported that JOHN BARRETT, STEVE STUCKY and BUTCH HANCOCK are fellow members of the 50/50 Raffle committee. He announced that $48 worth of raffle tickets were sold today, bringing the total to $334 for the lucky Rotarian. The winning number belonged to NANCY JO TRAFTON! The Ace of Spades eluded her, but she received a bottle in a brown paper bag. Thanks for being part of the fun, NANCY JO!

♦ The Pancake Breakfast raised $630 for Polio Eradication. Thanks to all who participated.

♦ April 29 & 30, 2011 - District Conference in Carmel, IN.

♦ If you don't want to hear about Every Rotarian Every Year, please make your donation when you pay your dues and DICK will happily refrain from haranguing us all year.

♦ The open backpack at the attendance table is ready to receive loose change and paper as a fund-raiser for that project.
