Weekly Meeting Responsibilities Schedule
Responsibility for the various activities that occur during our meeting are scheduled on a rotating basis to each member of the club.
 
There are several components to a successful Rotary meeting such as set-up and tear-down, greeter and guest introduction, 50-50 and happy thoughts, invocation, lead the pledges, arranging and introducing the speaker and our Rotary 4way test at the end of the meeting. The schedule is published on our website. Members are asked to review the schedule to determine when they are responsible for arranging the speaker. Try to arrange the speaker 4 to 6 weeks in advance. Please notify our webmaster, John Pokorny who your speaker is so your speakers name and presentation subject can be posted on the website to promote our meetings. Click here to see the 1st quarter meeting schedule and plan when you are scheduled for one of the meeting duties.

Fundraising at the Lewisville Morning Rotary Club can be fun.
 
At every meeting members can participate in the weekly 50-50 Drawing. For a $1 donation you receive 1 ticket. For a $2 donation you receive 3 tickets. At the end of the meeting, we draw one ticket from the 50-50 can. The person with the winning  ticket gets to choose from the remaining cards in the card deck. If the card is marked "winner", that person will share 50% of the funds in the 50-50 kitty. Forgot your folding money?
