ROTARY CLUB OF WEST SPRINGFIELD
Attendance: Meeting the minimum attendance requirements is your responsibility as a Rotarian.
Benefits of Attendance:
- Fosters fellowship among Club Members
- Provides opportunities to meet new people and re-connect with long time friends
- Keeps you current on Club, District and Rotary International news and events.
Attendance Requirements: As explained in the Standard Rotary Club Constitution, each member needs to meet the following requirements:
- Attend or make up at 50% of your Rotary Club meetings in each half of the year (July thru December and January thru June).
- Attend at least 30% of your Club's meetings in each half of the year, as noted above.
- A member may not miss or fail to make up four (4) consecutive meetings.
Attendance for a Meeting: You should be present for at least 60% of a Club meeting for it to count towards the attendance requirement. For example, you would need to be present for at least 36 minutes of a 60 minute meeting.
Attendance at your Club: You should attend at least 30% of your own Club's meetings in each half of the year, as noted above. For example, if your Club holds 26 regular weekly meetings in six (6) months, you must attend at least 8 meetings.
Make-Ups: There are many ways that you can still receive attendance credit if you cannot attend your Club meeting. All make ups must be completed 2 weeks prior or 2 weeks following a missed meeting. It is your responsibility to notify George Condon if you make up a meeting. George's-mail address is gcondon@northeastsecuritysolutions.com
