Dues Invoices have been sent out along with an explanation on the increase. Please pay your dues promptly! The club receives invoices from RI and the District in early July and need to be ready to submit on your behalf! Thank you so very much! 
************************************
 
PLEASE TAKE NOTE, THERE IS NO MEETING ON JULY 3RD, 2 WEEKS FROM NOW SO WE MIGHT ENJOY INDEPENDANCE DAY !!  
 
************************************
NEW HAPPY DOLLAR POLICY (FOR LACK OF A HAPPIER WORD) We will no longer "track" your happy $$ and send you an invoice.  Your secretary has many more happy things to do with her time.  So please, begin either paying via VENMO during or after the meeting you spread your joy, OR keep track yourself and make a monthly payment on VENMO.  I am confident you can all make this happen!  I'll even send reminders and the QR code.  If John can do it, so can you.  
 
Thank you for making your secretary HAPPY!!!
 
 
Last week President Anika asked each member to take on the challenge of finding at least 2 speakers in a 1 month time frame.  We all need to chip in and help bring some fun, informative and exciting speakers to our meetings.  You might be the speaker yourself!  For instance, at tonight's meeting our newest member Luis will be presenting about some other organizations he is involved with and passionate about the work they do.  Samantha shared with us not to long ago about her new business.  
Our incoming new member Bill has taken on the task for July and so far has a speaker for the 31st.  
 
Keep these things in mind when looking for a speaker:
 
1) We ask for a 15 minute presentation with an additional 5 minutes for questions (We can go longer with the presentation if we know up front)
 
2) Visuals are always awesome,  Power Point or photo's to enhance.  Please check with the potential speaker to be sure they know how to work with zoom or if they might need help.  We can provide help if we know in advance and are sent the documents.
 
3) Look for interesting topics or projects that are educational, fun and inspirational.  They do NOT have to be Rotary related.  Just please refrain from speakers that are looking for money to further their cause.  That doesn't mean we might not be interested in helping, but it should not be the main reason for their talk.  
 
4) Check the website under "speakers" to see dates that are available and email Karen to reserve or book.  Once your speaker is on board, ask them to send a photo and a short bio along with a title for their presentation. Sometimes we like to invite other clubs as well.
 
5) Send your emails to intlinnovatorseclub@gmail.com  and our website is https://rotaryeclubofintlinnovators.com
 
 
President Anika asked each member to take a month, or she would assign you one.  So who will be working to find August speakers?  How about September?  Let us know at tonight's meeting!!

UPDATE ON CLUB MEMBERS GIVING TO THE FOUNDATION

We are down to the last few weeks to make your donation.  
Please make your donation of at least $25 to the ANNUAL FUND!  
You are more than welcome to make additional donations to any of the other funds listed.  But the Annual fund is where $$ comes back into the District and clubs for local grant projects or larger global projects.
