Are you part of a strong club that is willing to adopt a club that needs a little help?
Will your club help a struggling club with membership at their meetings by attending their meetings, assisting with membership drives and getting the word out about the merits of your adopted club?
If so, you can help the adopted club by energizing their club with new people, more speakers, extra functionaries and a new beginning for their club!
A nice secondary result would be to help to bring them to Distinguished status!
Send the name of the clubs you are adopting, as well as your home club to Linda Peake.
