The Hidden Cost of Bad Business Writing
Every profession in every industry requires more on-the-job
writing than ever before. An estimated two-thirds of employees in
large American companies are expected to write as part of their job.
Effective business writing affects the bottom line more than you
might think. Careless, inaccurate, or unclear writing can cost a
company millions in costs related to printing, litigation, lost
business, and much more. Brian O'Neill explores the connection
between business writing and profitability. Check out Brian's web

Hi Tim,
Last week's meeting we celebrated 50 years of
Rotary Service for King Davis. King's family was in attendance and I
believe he was very much surprised and properly honored.
Congratulations to King. King received local and international
awards as well as one very important stuff animal presented to him
by Bill Klueber.
Comedy night looked to be another Rotary
success. We had many laughs at the Georgetown Club. Thanks to all
who contributed to the nights event. Special thanks to
Bonnie(Bonita) for her efforts in ticket sales and distribution as
well as working the door at the Friday night event. The presidential
swan managed to show up at the event and was seen taking photos with
the comedians.
The board is currently dealing with the
proposed change of meeting place once again. We will have more
information following our regular board meeting on
10/31.
