Explanation of the new Club Meeting Schedule
 
This week the Board agreed to a slightly modified meeting schedule. For the remainder of this Rotary year the rhythm of meetings each month will be:
1st Tuesday – Lunch
2nd Tuesday – Dinner
3rd Tuesday – Lunch
4th Tuesday – Satellite*
5th Tuesday – Zoom
 
*The “Satellite” initiative is to develop a new off-shoot of the main Club but more closely linked with the Newmarket centre. Satellite meetings will be held in Newmarket and are likely to be outside work hours.  
 
Satellite members can also attend our clubs dinner or lunch meetings – and vice versa.  This fits perfectly with our strategy of focusing more closely on the Newmarket area, as a source of new club members, but not to the exclusion of our existing membership. Existing members may of course join the Satellite club if that suits their circumstances better. 
 
An exception to not having club meetings on the fourth Tuesday is the 22nd Nov. On this day we already have Mark Knoff-Thomas (CEO Newmarket Business Association) booked for Ellerslie.  A closer relationship with NBA is a key part of reconnecting with our Newmarket business roots.
