The Grayling Rotary Club annual meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, November 2nd, 2016.  
 
In accordance with the club's bylaws, an election of officers shall occur during the annual meeting.  The officers to be elected by ballot are: 
 
  1. Director - A 3 year term commencing July 1, 2017
  2. President Elect ('17) to become effective immediately.
A proposal to modify the club's attendance policy was approved by the Board of Directors on October 17, 2016.  The proposal will be presented to the membership for approval at the annual meeting.  A majority voice vote of the membership quorum (1/3 of the membership) is required for acceptance.  The existing attendance policy requires an aggregate 60% attendance record to sustain club membership in any 12 month period.  The ByLaw modification "encourages 50% attendance" at meetings and activities.
 
The Club's committee assignment list is enclosed with this bulletin.  The committees will also be updated in ClubRunner by the end of this week.  The first name listed is intended to act as chairperson for the respective committee.  Please note that a brief written quarterly report of the committee's activity is desired.  The report should be sent to the Board of Directors for information and deliberation.
 
The Board has continued to proceed to support a "major project" at Hanson Hills consisting of a proposed 40'x20'x10' pavilion.  Bids are pending as of October 17, 2016.  The next Board meeting is scheduled for noon on Monday November 21, 2016.
