SHERIFF'S REPORT
Ray Doerr lead a discussion on changes to our bylaws. There was great participation from our entire club regarding our bylaws that help us function and create change throughout our community and the world. A consensus was reached to have the committee edit our bylaws with the membership's input in mind and a focus on simplification.

Yes, this is a challenging time. But, we are Rotarians, we will rise to the challenge, and our resilience and power of adaptation will prevail over this. Thanks everyone, have a great week.
