Gallery Gallop Realizes a Profit

Though the weather was frightful for the 27th running of the Gallery Gallop, the event did realize a profit of $498. Thanks to chairperson Eric Tonk for the hardwork in organizing and managing the event. Nearly 70 runners participated in the grueling run along Miller Beach and into the dunes on a rainy, windy, chilly day.

Board Proposes Dues Change

The Board of Directors of Gary Rotary is proposing a change in the dues structure of Gary Rotary. Currently our dues structure assesses each member $200 for dues, $45 for the annual banquet, and $5 for a contribution to the Rotary Foundation, for a total of $250. The Board proposes discontinuing the $45 annual banquet fee and the $5 Foundation contribution bringing the annual dues to $200. Our dues structure also assesses additional corporate or family members a dues of $175 but not the $45 banquet fee nor the $5 Foundation contribution. This will remain the same. These changes will be brought to the members for vote at the June 6 membership meeting.
