It may take a while to catch up with all the changes and events that occurred in June and July. In June, the Van Buren Rotary Club Board of Directors took steps to convert our club's member records to the new district-wide data system. The district's goal was making record keeping much easier for clubs and improving communications with all our members. Part of the package includes a new "permanent" web page for the club that we'll be working on through the Fall. I'll be sure to have links from this web log or "blog" so that everyone can see what's happening within the club. You can already see the link to the District and Club data base (DaCdb - usually pronounced Dak-dee-bee).so that committee chairs and members can share information with their committees. Members can even use the new DaCdb system to update their own member information as it changes with a new phone number or email address.
In the meantime, I'll post pictures from the district installation banquet in Altus and several special programs that occurred while I was concentrating on the conversion process. While all of us are catching up, officers and committee chairs can still send me an email and we'll pass along the announcements and post committee meeting dates in the calendar section.
On a personal note, thanks for all the prayers and encouragement while I've been recovering from a few complications from what started off as minor surgery. I'm doing fine now and getting a little stronger with each day, but it feels even better to get back to work. See you at Rotary!
