Constitution & By-Law Revisions
March 5, 2021
Last week, we announced that we will be revising the Rotary Club of Indianapolis Constitution and By-Laws. The Constitution and By-Laws have not been updated in over ten years. Over the past few months, the Club Officers and Board of Directors have worked with Club Constitution and By-Law Chair Charlie Meyer to update the documents. Charlie Meyer presented the proposed revisions at our weekly club meeting on March 2 and the proposed changes were distributed in the February 25 e-newsletter. Since then, we have received feedback on the revisions and suggestions for improvement. In an effort to be fair to all concerned we have decided to pause the voting on the revisions at this time.
An updated version of the proposed Constitution and By-Law amendments can be viewed here: Constitution and By-Laws. The prior versions can be viewed here. Starting today through Tuesday, March 16 you have the opportunity to provide feedback on the proposed Constitution & By-Law revisions. Below is the timeline for the review and approval of the Constitution and By-Laws. Please contact Charlie Meyer, Constitution and By-Law Committee Chair or President Nick Reich if you have any questions or concerns.

June 20: Rotary to Host Speed Networking
On June 20th, the Club will host its first ever Speed Networking event!
Network within this great club of ours, and possibly with guests, and let others know your “Needs & Leads”. Come prepared to rotate in groups of 3, for 8 minutes, sharing your needs and what a good lead looks like for you! In preparation, please make sure your DACdb profile is up to date, bring plenty of business cards- and most importantly, be prepared and succinct on what your needs and leads are for your business, civic or club needs.
Tuesday’s meeting is the third in a series organized by the Communications and Business Development committees. The series has focused on personal development and how to better network. This winter, Danny O’Malia talked to us about the importance of customer service and follow up. This spring, we heard from a cast of influential and proven leaders on how they have learned to network and build relationships. NOW is the time to take all these best practices, aha Moments, and nuggets of Inspiration and put them to use!
Looking forward to seeing you there!
