Approve Minutes, last board meeting; approved unanimously.
AJ Robinson Donation in honor of DG Lion Rick S.-already donated 180$ in addition to our budgeted amount.
Remaining Donations, This Lion Year: We have 6,000 to disperse for this fiscal year, between the fact that we are waiting for some billings and money we have not designated. In June, Al will check on those billings. For Camp Via, we have funds left over that we didn’t spend on materials for upkeep as we usually do and possibly we could donate if they have a need. We have already sent Via $1,500 dollars towards camperships.
Schedule Budget Meeting, Lion Year 2020/21: June 27, Saturday, at 1:00 pm. We will have to wait for clarity on if we can meet in person or virtual. Jeff will send out the date and tell members to come to advocate for their charities. Al will send it out earlier for review, and members could also submit in writing their thoughts and their advocacies if they cannot be there. The chairpeople for our fundraising events should prepare their budgets for the meeting: Golf Tournament, Food Drive, Crab Feed, Ride for Diabetes, and then possibly in June Golf Tourney (same fiscal year).
Charity Golf, 2020; Saturday, August 29th and pending any social distancing requirements. Can we ask Ray and Ron to attend the next board meeting. We must think of where we are with our usual plan vs. what might happen with COVID -19 restrictions. Moffett is not yet open, like some other golf courses. We could ask for donations in place of the event, but make it more meaningful to direct the funds to supporting those affected by COVID-19, or another direct charity.
Ride for Diabetes Survey: Jeff will ask Sudha to attend the next board meeting as they are thinking to have the ride at the end of September 25, 2021. Google form survey went out and she had feedback that she summarized to Jeff. If you didn’t say you participated in the ride part of the event, the survey would not let you continue. A survey should be given much earlier after the event as a guideline for moving forward.
Special Presentations at June PM Meeting via ZOOM – encouraging all to attend, Lion John Smith will attend with a photo presentation.
Good of the Pride-
Bylaw voting: has to be at a meeting where we have a quorum of the members, 50%, so Claire thinks we could do it electronically because of our situation OR a special meeting on ZOOM. We will do it at the June PM meeting. We will give notice that we will get a vote. Leslie will send it out by mail on Friday.
Food Drive/Crab Feed: donation is tied together for the $1500.00 Disneyland donation.
Lions need to be added to our club listserve, check for updates, because not everyone is getting the emails.
Canine Companions: August 14th is the next date for puppy graduations and we are penciled in to attend.
Meeting Adjourned: 7:23
