What is the Backroom of a Rotary Club? I think it is serving on the board of directors. When you serve as an officer, I consider that being outfront on the floor. But when you served as a director, it is in the backroom behind the door.
Early this morning, I attended my monthly board of directors meeting. It is was time of reviewing, evaluating, and planning what the club will be doing the rest of year.

Be An Expert in Just FIVE minutes!
Over 250,000 people have fled their homes in eastern Congo. They are at-risk of dying!
BBC News Allan Little does an EXCELLENT job explaining the current "humanitarian crisis" in the Congo. The video is only 5 minutes long!

Tom, I am glad the UN Secretary General stood you up!
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon was justified in skipping his appointment last week with the Rotary International's Board of Directors. The Secretary General was traveling to Africa (Kenya and Congo) to mediate peace between fighting rebels backed Rwanda and government troops of DR Congo.
Tom Branum, a RI Director and member of my Rotary Club (Indianapolis Northeast), relied this story to me today. Therefore, I apologized to Tom on behalf of the 250,000 displaced people in eastern Congo because of this latest conflict. Also, I gave a "Happy Buck" in honor of the UN Secretary General.
