Plan Ahead: This weeks meeting will focus on planning for the Club's future. The strategic planning session will include a SWOT analysis and general discussion around the opportunities and pitfalls ahead. Lunch will be plated and awaiting your arrival. Kindly do you best to be on time or early. If you have not RSVP'd for the event, please do so now. Berkshire YMCA: Foundation President John Perreault introduced Jess Rumlow, Executive Director of the Berkshire Family YMCA (Pittsfield), presenting her organization with a check of $5,000 from the Foundation in support of their annual campaign. Ms. Rumlow is also a Rotarian from North Adams and plans to transfer her membership to Pittsfield. Sign of the Times: At meetings end, Chuck Wetherell showcased new signs indicating the time and place of our weekly program. These signs will be attached underneath five existing signs throughout Pittsfield. A sixth sign is planned for the Pittsfield / Dalton border. Though petty larceny was suggested, it is more likely a new sign post will be installed instead of appropriating the Kiwanis post. Sparks was told the new signs are of such strong construction that they will survive even Armageddon. Eric Schaffer will assist with the installation process. |
