  6. Grander Vision • Do we want there to be something we do in the community that establishes our identity? • Club foundation and club have mutual goals but there is a need for more communication • Fellowships – should we have evening meetings once a month or quarter? • New mantra for 13/14 – “engage Rotary; change lives”

  7. Let’s narrow down the projects

Project Ideas – how many? • Hands-on service • Wetlands / planting • Salvation Army bell ringing • Miller Woods • Henderson House • Soup Kitchen • Others ? • Four projects sound good and manageable? • Fundraising • Winter flower baskets • Film festival • Crab feed • Blueberries • Wine raffle • Others ? • Two projects sound good and manageable?

  14. Focus • Where would you like to spend time for our projects? • Need to come back with ideas so we can finalize and move forward

  15. Can we reconcile our focus and mission and hit the target? Make McMinnville a better place in which to live and work, and have fun doing it.
