New VCR members are requested to attend both sessions of the Red Badge (Orientation). Each session is held immediately before the Club's service project (Sack Pack) at Cobb Co. Fire Station 5's Community Room (4336 Paces Ferry Road, Atlanta, GA 30339). Use the parking lot next to the station house that is in front of "Another Broken Egg" and walk through the front door of the station house. A light dinner is provided (think sammies, salad, pizza fare), so please confirm your attendance with the President Elect (who will likely be talking with you about the session) for dinner and dietary needs.

Session One is typically on even numbered months and Session Two is typically on odd numbered months. These sessions are intended to provide new members with tangible information about VCR, how to get plugged in, and the various opportunities afforded to Rotarians. Attendees are encouraged to bring their mobile phone, table, or laptop to also get a tour of our online presence, links, and members-only items.

Hosts: Brant Campbell and Jennifer Humphrey

Vinings Cumberland Rotarians invite the community to join them on the Second Thursdays of the month to assemble lunch sacks (chips, sandwiches, etc.) that are distributed the next day by The Table on Delk to children getting off the school bus in the immediate vicinity of Delk Road and Interstate 75. 

The Table on Delk is committed to serving individuals at risk of sex-trafficking. Part of that mission includes addressing critical needs of mostly women and their young families to decrease that risk, desperation, and food insecurity. 

The Sack Pack is held in the Community Room at Fire Station No. 5 in Vinings (4336 Paces Ferry Road, Atlanta, GA 30339). Please park next store at Another Broken Egg (which will be closed at that time) and follow the sidewalk.

LOCATION: 4336 Paces Ferry Road, Atlanta, Georgia 30339 (intersection of Paces Ferry and Paces Mill).

Members who have committed to nomination for the Club's 26-27 year, along with substantially involved committee members and current board members, will meet for a strategic planning meeting (with lunch) at the Club's Hospitality House, this last day of the District Conference. 

Incoming Board Members are asked to prepare in advance and bring (1) a preliminary budget request for their area of responsibility; (2) a proposed calendar of events for "known" activities/plans for activities or needs for 26/27; and (3) if applicable, any proposals, for discussion, for a district matching grant (applications due May 15th).

2. Review engagement levels of members (a roster run),

3.  Review projected costs of running the business of the club (Operating Budget and planning), and

4. Identification of any new initiatives for 26/27 (and how members can be connected to originate new initiatives).
