The Board and I want to thank everyone who participated in the Club Membership Survey. We received 45 surveys back. Your input is critical in shaping the club to align with you the Club Membership. Below is a recap of the survey results. Board members and Committee Chairs are working on the detailed changes based on the survey and we will be announcing the changes over the next couple of months.
I want to give a BIG THANK YOU to each of the 50+ Club Members that volunteered for Committees, Club Luncheons, Club Events & Activities and Charity Efforts. Some volunteered for multiple activities. It was very impressive! It is through club participation like this, that the Stuart Rod and Reel Club will be a better and more enjoyable organization!
Thank You
