An Open Letter To The Rotary Club Membership
 
Ladies and gentlemen of the Rotary Club of Lima, Ohio,
 
I wanted to make you aware that the Rotary Board is re-examining the payment of dues by the members of our club and that steps are being taken to address a long-standing issue – believe it or not, some members are quite in arrears in the payment of their dues.  Our constitution states that quarterly dues are to be paid IN ADVANCE.  So, while the review of policy is being done, I want to urge everyone to please check the status of his or her account – are you caught up?  If not, please contact Kevin Bill at Rea and Associates to make plans for bringing your account current.
 
Please also keep in mind that while the “Scholarship Fund” and “Every Rotarian Every Year” portions of the quarterly invoice are voluntary, they are very important for the funding of vital programs.  I urge you to continue contributing to these programs as well.
 
More on this important area in the life of our organization will be addressed over the next several weeks.
 
Thank you in advance for your consideration.
 
Be a Gift to the World!
 
David
