eClub colleagues, thank you for your help with our meetings! This link contains the club and board meeting schedule for 2017-18, and a rotating list of member responsibilities for meeting support.

As eClub members are busy and engaged in many activities, we realize this schedule may not always match your calendar. If you have a conflict,please arrange a "trade" with a colleague and and let Gayle know 48 hours (or more) in advance of the meeting for planning. Gayle's email is rotary5010@ak.net or 5010rotary@gmail.com.

If you're scheduled to provide the introduction, Gayle will send the speaker's biography to you at least 2 days in advance. You are highly encouraged to personalize and make it unique.

August 12th meeting

Happy Thursday to you all in the eClub world!

Speaker and Rotarian Bill Wittich said something to the effect of: "Folks don't invite their friends to volunteer or to join Rotary because they're afraid of being rejected. But here's the thing; they aren't saying "no" to you, just to the opportunity".

That said, I would like to invite all of you.

Your presence would be very much appreciated and welcomed at our eClub meeting this Saturday, August 12th, 8:00am Alaska time. Log-in information and agenda are below, and further below. It will be followed by our regular monthly board meeting.

If you will not be able to join us, please send us a quick update via email that we can share. Thank you!

Please join my meeting from your computer, tablet or smartphone.

After Hours Club!

They are new and do not have a banner. After Hours was the Club that joined one of our eClub meetings last November. This motivated them to become become a hybrid club. They also expressed interest in working with us on an international project. That's a pretty great eClub banner!

Sitka Conference recap

30 year anniversary of District 5010 (Thank you, Marty Metiva)

100 year anniversary of the Rotary Foundation

150 year anniversary of the treaty for the purchase of Russian Alaska

How good it was to see some of our eClub members face-to-face, and catch up with old Rotarian friends. Understandably, not everyone was able to attend. The eClub had a great morning meeting! While President Julie was unable to attend do to some other commitments, Past-President George conducted the meeting well (I think he’s done this gavel-passing before). President-Elect Sharon put in some personal touches – like pin choice, and “coffee & cake” that made the meeting feel festive and special. Many thanks to those who made the logistics and set-up happen! Also, our Friendship Table looked great!

Among the awards/pinnings at the meeting were:

Sue Foley Volunteer Award to Doran Powell

Foundation Giving Challenge (to the club!) for 100% of the members contributing (Good job, Foundation Chair, Sharon!)

Paul Harris+6 (+7 even?) for Sharon and Al Durtka

Paul Harris 1 for Brian Shimek and Floyd Shilanski

Paul Harris Society recognition for Wanda Cooksey, George Frushour, and Sharon and Al Durtka

Major Donor Recognition for Tom Nicolos

49 years of perfect attendance to Leo Rasmussen

Officer pins for the incoming board

Passing of the gavel from Julie (George) to President-Elect Sharon

Many thanks to all who attended, including special and honored guests Nancy Nicolos, Pat Frushour, and Al Durtka; our eClub mentors Marty Metiva and Terri Hall; our DG, DGE, AG, multiple PDG, club presidents, and fine individuals all around.

Timely items to consider:

How quickly the weeks of 2018 are moving by! There are few time-sensitive items for the club to consider and respond to:

The Sue Foley Excellence in Service Award: Expect more details on the origins and purpose of this award during the meeting on the 13th. The recipient may be a Rotarian or not, but should exemplify excellence in service to his or her community. We present this award during our meeting at the 5010 District Conference. We need nominations ASAP! Please let us know who your nominee is (and where), and what they do that you think should be considered. Thank you!

The 5010 District Conference is seeking photographs of club members in action! Each club in the district will have a short photo/club summary presented. As an extra motivator, photos contributed will be submitted to a professionally-judged photo contest as well. More details will be forthcoming, but start thinking about what you might be able to show and tell.
