Make-up your missed meetings
If you go to attend a Rotary club meeting at the time and place of their
regularly scheduled
meeting and that club does not meet, you still get credit for a make-up.
For those of you who find it difficult making-up at a local club, try
making up on the Internet.
While you won't have your account credited with $12 (since it doesn't cost
anything at most
e-clubs to make up online), you will however have your attendance credited
which help
and the
club.
Just notify President Mark after you make-up and tell him the date of the
meeting you missed, the
date you made up and where you made up (the club applies the 4-way
test).
Rotary International has approved 27 clubs to participate in the cyber
club pilot project. The
