Today’s meeting was largely following up on and making some progress with items from the last few meetings. Wes reported on his efforts to get us a Zoom account. We are currently relying on Marc’s district account, but the club prefers to have its own. Zoom requires a credit card. President Bob indicated he will follow up by supplying Zoom with his own credit card. Watch for emails with details for next week’s Zoom meetings, one from Bob about the club meeting and one from Marc about Bingo Happy Hour.
Scholarship information has not changed. The deadline for applications is May 20th, next Wednesday, and there are currently just 9 applications.
Monday Night Bingo continues, and is fun, even for the “losers.”
Tomorrow, Thursday, there is a Rotary International Zoom meeting originating in Nigeria. Marc and Bob will be participating, and Bob invited anyone interested in joining to contact him for sign-in information.
Brian Liss has told Bob that he still is planning to place memorial flags on veterans’ gravesites, but he is not sure of the exact date. This will probably occur sometime between late May and July 4th.
Please call Brian if you are interested in helping with this. His cell phone is (860) 716-2224.
Burlington Coat Factory and East Hartford Social Services will cooperate again with our club’s Coats for Kids project. This will occur in October. The club will be seeking help from the district again via a district grant funded by the annual fund of The Rotary Foundation.
