General Meeting: A Club Update by IPP Lezel Ness Copo
Rotaract Club of Raha Sulayman Volunteers
Last Sept. 19, Transformational President Jayson Reyes made several announcements that will help the club transform and elevate.
after every meeting and the winner will be given a prize. Most importantly, the club's most active Rotaractor every month shall be recognized and rewarded.
In the past years, I can describe our club as a carefree one - doing projects, partnering with other clubs and organizations but not putting any pressure of responsibility towards our members. If one is unavailable, we just let them be. Later on, those kind of members are most likely to end up inactive. This year, TP Jayson, together with the other club's Past Presidents have decided to change this. We formed several club policies that aim to boost members participation for every activity especially since most of it are held online.
Membership dues were also discussed as this year will be the first time for our club to collect dues. The members have several packages to choose from: membership only or with pins and polo shirt. There is also a special consideration for the student members, a discounted amount. We also gave a warm virtual welcome to our three new members. We gave them short orientation about Rotaract and the club itself. All of them were excited for the next club activities and events.
One of the policies is if a member cannot join an activity, he/she needs to compensate for it by either sharing his/her knowledge on a certain topic or donating to the club fund. There will also be fellowship games online
Lastly, we ended the meeting with a short fellowship. We played Spin-the-wheel and the three lucky winners were given load worth P50 and P100. It was indeed a fruitful and fun meeting!
