The third regular meeting was held on the 21st of July at the regular venue of the Diplomat Radisson Hotel and was inaugurated by President Nazha Abu-Hendi who welcomed two guests to the session; Mr. Hassan Foulad and PP Mr. Jano Muawwad of the Rotary Club of Salmaniya.
After some club announcements and words of wisdom from the club’s Sargent-at-Arms Aroop Takyar, Madam President invited PP Redha Faraj to the floor to share with us his plans – as the chairperson of the Membership Committee for the current year – to increase and consolidate the membership of the club. He also advised us of some changes to the rules affecting Rotary membership starting this year. You can view his presentation which is available as a pdf file here.
Club Treasurer Zoher Taher outlined his plans to expedite the selling of the Earth Day Art Competition paintings by contacting leading companies and organisations in Bahrain by writing them some letters advising them of the paintings’ availability and then following up with them to effect the sales, the proceeds of which will obviously help our club’s endeavours.
Lastly, Mahmood Al-Yousif, the chairperson of the Public Relations committee demonstrated the new club website (at http://rotaryadliya.org) to the members and advised them on ways to implement their newly created club email addresses. He also outlined his plans to effect a new and informative way to communicate the club’s activities to the members by adopting a new email format which will include information about the meeting’s venue, the main speakers for the evening together with a short biography and other features of the meeting. He suggested that this email should go out by Wednesday of every week with a short reminder on Sunday morning.
