PM Meeting Review – Lion Ray talked about the PM meeting:
• Lion Charles recapped the Board meeting. It was brought up that the club was not in compliance with LCI club naming guidelines so our clubs official name now is: Cupertino De Anza Lions Club Charities Inc. so we are no longer in violation of LCI guidelines.
• Lion Ray said Lion’s Dagi and John Noone were authorized $1,100 to update the clubs website with newer technology and has started updating the new website. Lion Dagi has asked for feedback on information now on the website or needs to be added or deleted.
• The PU-101 for Club Board Membership for 2017-2018 was read by Lion Prez Jeff and then was voted on and passed.
• Lion Amy, thanked the Lions that answered her survey and said there were still openings for committee chairpersons. She said we need to start getting golfers and sponsors.
• Buchser Career Fair will need 12 Lions tables on May 9 and picked up the 10th about 11:30. They also need two-three volunteers to help guide the presenters into the parking lot and where to go with their materials.
Charity Bike Ride – Lion John said that Lion Kent has gotten “Krazy George” to attend the Ride4Diabetes event and possibly the band “The Grateful Dads”. Lion John said he had been tasked to try and come up with a walking path around McClellan Park for individuals who do not want to ride. We will be offering an
early bird special with 40% off the registration fee if you sign up before the dead- line of April 30th. Lion Dagi is putting these flyers on our website as well as the District website. Lion Sundar has been working extremely hard on the Ride4Dia- betes website and it is looking great. He is currently working on getting all the social media pages attached to our Ride4Diabetes website to expand our adver- tising base.
Good of the Order – Lion Ray said he and Lion Eli took 4,528 pairs of glasses, 15 cell phones, 3 hearing aids, and a number of ink cartridges that we collected to the Vallejo. Lion Ray said that Lion Phil was the master at collecting the eye glasses.
Lion Ray mentioned that the new District Governor Bob Stewart was presiding over the swearing in of a large number of Nepalese people into the Lions Club both in Milpitas and Sunnyvale.
Lion Ron read a Thank You letter from both the YWCA and Rebekah Children Services for our kind donations which will make a positive difference in their fu- ture. These Thank you letters have been scanned and attached to the email.
Opportunity Drawing – Congratulations Lion Ray won by picking his own num- ber.
