(21 Oct) Online Regular Meeting
Online regular meeting of Rotary Club Sofia International took place on Wednesday 21 October 2020. It was the club’s fourth meeting for this Rotarian season. The meeting was online, as it is planned in our plan and schedule for conducting meetings.
We had 12 club members attending. The meeting started with the announcement of the planned events of our club for the Rotarian. The first one is the traditional Oktoberfest of the club. The plans for 2021 include a Wine Fundraising Event in March. Another event would be the Petanque Tournament in April together with Rotary Club Samokov and Rotary Club Paris Agora from France. A Sitting Volleyball tournament, together with our sitting volleyball team Sofia Owls in May will increase awareness for this initiative of the club. Finally a French Night is planed together with the handover ceremony of the presidents of the club in June. All events will, of course, depend on the developments of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The president used the opportunity to highlight the developments of our relationship with Rotary Club Paris Agora. Our French friends are very interested to work with us in the coming future on common projects.
Additionally we discussed projects, which our club can support this Rotarian year. One of these is the continuation of the MED-Bul Project, supporting the hospital in Zlatograd. Another project is for support for a school in city of Rakovitsa together with Rotary Club Vidin. Also a project discussed was the support for the reestablishment of the local orienteering club in the town of Elena.
