Many of us are wondering what our Rotary Clubs are doing for Fund Raisers, and specifically “To the Heart of the Matter” 2021. Wendy Scott has agreed to be the Chair Person again for 2021 and today, Wendy, Alana and I met to have an initial discussion on how to proceed. In no particular order, the following was discussed: - Several of us are aware of the recent on line auction the Coquitlam Rotary Clubs successfully completed. Kyle O’Genski (Ron’s son) was heavily involved and is happy to discuss further with our Clubs. Ryan McBride a new member of the Burnaby Club, is happy to get involved and has been in discussion with Kyle.
- Kathy will reach out directly to Kyle to see if he will share how much they raised in the silent auction and in the 50/50 draw. Also about their sponsorship package/rates.
- Wendy is proposing that we have a “Goggle Hang Out Meeting” which she will organize for our first HOM meeting. PLEASE REPLY TO ALL IF WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 9TH@ 9:00 AM WOULD WORK FOR YOU.
- Alana is proposing for the Royal City Rotary Club, our portion of funds raised this year will be used for local projects. Future years, we would re-consider international and local projects.
- Tentative dates for the online auction could be February 13 – 27, 2021.
- Invite Kyle to one of our Wednesday night Zoom Rotary meetings to further share his findings with our Club members and anyone from the Burnaby Rotary Club and Lorrie could join in on the call.
- Auction software is clickbidonline.com - $795.00 is the base price, plus a couple of add on’s would likely take the price to $2,000 USD.
Thoughts, comments are appreciated. 4 way test recited by all in attendance |
