Tonight we had Jean and Tracey provide inhouse training on Club Runner.
Access to Club Runner is part of each members annual subscription and Rotary membership. It is a wonderful resource for members to communicate with each other, view the Bulletin, keep up to date with Club, District and Rotary International news.
Jean and Tracey patiently went through how to log on, how to navigate around the different tabs, areas of interest, sending emails, and an overall introduction to Club Runner.
The app is also available for your mobile phone and is very helpful with all Club member details, birthdays, anniversaries and Club event.
Thank you to Jean and Tracey for the presentation and if you require further help don't hesitate to give them a call.
