To make this agenda truly interactive and functional for the meeting, I have integrated the detailed minutes from DG Niecy’s meeting into section 4. I've used the `
` and `` HTML tags to create "drop-downs"—this keeps the agenda clean but allows everyone to toggle the specific advice (the good, the bad, and the ugly) as needed. I've also ensured the **Firewolves** note uses the lacrosse emoji and updated the **Blue Jays** ticket availability note as requested. ```html Rotary Club of Courtice - Jackie Robinson Day #42

The Good: Best Practices
  • ⚾Present a clear organizational statement at the first meeting.
  • ⚾Empower club members and community partners early.
  • ⚾Get club dates out quickly to avoid regional conflicts.
The Tough: Leadership Reality
  • ⚾Singing from the same songbook: Once a Board decision is final, the club must speak with a unified voice.
  • ⚾Decision Reality: Leadership means making tough choices that won't please everyone.
  • ⚾The 24-Hour Rule: When faced with "slippery slopes," wait 24 hours before reacting to gain perspective.
