Did You Know… Leadership Opportunities and Board updates

🏓 Club Business Update – October 2025

At this week’s Club Business meeting, members received updates on board activity, leadership opportunities, and the results from Pickleball Fest 2025.

📋 September Board Meeting Highlights

• Reviewed finances for the new Rotary year — all on track with no surprises.

• Welcomed three new members! With these additions, our Satellite Club now has 10 members.

• Discussed the possibility of hosting the 2027–28 District Conference in Southern Oregon, in collaboration with the United Rotary Clubs of Southern Oregon.

• Reviewed progress on the annual member survey and District Action Grant, which will focus on promotional outreach.

• Identified leadership opportunities for the upcoming December elections.

👥 Leadership Opportunities 2026–2027
We’re looking for future leaders ready to make an impact! Open roles include:

• Club President for 2028–29

• Deputy Secretary (to shadow our current Secretary, Cheryl)

• Two Board Positions (term begins July 2026)

Serving on the board means attending one monthly meeting (about 75 minutes), learning the inner workings of Rotary, and shaping how we serve our community.
A Board Discovery Meeting will be held in November, with elections in December.

🎾 Pickleball Fest 2025 Results
This year’s Pickleball Fest was another success—raising $36,430, up from $34,400 in 2024. Participation included 149 players (compared to 182 last year). While attendance dipped slightly, total revenue increased, reflecting stronger sponsorships and community support.
Player satisfaction continues to score well, with a Strategic Plan benchmark of 4 out of 5. Insights from this year’s event will help guide planning for 2026 as we work toward our goal of increasing event revenue by 10%.
