• Kees took us through the Strategic Planning Guide that members received last week and were asked to go through and fill in what they could
• Over the next hour and 20 minutes, using PowerPoint, Kees went through the steps to set up a strategic plan for our club that he would like us to follow during his tenure as President from 2022-23
• He went through the background material for this plan and then we spent time on the phases of this process
• There was considerable discussion about where to hold our meetings
• With many newcomers in Ridgetown over the past few years, suggestions were given as to how to make the club more visible in town
• One was our being part of the May 14^th event taking place at the arena (see item 2)
• Another suggestion was to have posters put up in various business windows in town highlighting Rotary’s community projects and how to contact the club
• It was very evident that Kees had done a lot of work on this project
• He also showed us what he had done in the various priorities for the club
• Members who had filled in information on the handout  were asked to take it to Kees for him to check it out

• Kees asked for volunteers to sit with him on May 14^th for 1 hr. each between the hours of 10 - 3 at the Ridgetown Arena to represent our Club
• Other service clubs and organizations will also be present in the arena with their information

• Paul suggested May 16^th, starting at 4:00 pm, in the Arena parking lot
• After a short discussion, it was decided that there NOT be a road clean-up at this time.

• The suggested date was May 16^th, 2022.   Agreed
• Meeting Dates in June are the 13^th and 27^th
