Speaker Program: UC Irvine Outreach Clinic has a mission to deliver high quality medical care to individuals with limited access to health services and insurance. Steven Tate & Catherine Nguyen, undergrad and medical student volunteers for the clinic presented the Cliniics program and shared how volunteer student efforts make it work. Our club will support the clinic’s future expansion with funds from our upcoming Bike4Health ride development moves into full operation. It will be an investment in both medical care and medical student education opportunities.
The program for Thursday, June 7th, is a Club Assembly for determining our Strategic Plan. "What do we want our club to be three years from now" is the central question in this meeting conducted by President-elect Robert Fish. Club members have been receiving various Rotary International materials during the past week that will hopefully assist members in thinking through this process. The meeting will begin with a short presentation about our club as it exists today. The session will then segue into a general discussion about our future. This will be a "big picture" meeting. The following week, on June 14th, we will discuss our service areas and the specific objectives we will need to execute during 2012-2013 to meet our overall Strategic Plan during the first year. Please plan on attending both of these important meetings. It's your opportunity to have your voice heard by the general membership. ---------------Upcoming Speakers------------------
