Club, Meeting & Venue Details

Some of this information will already be in the database - but it is important that if you change meeting venue, meeting day etc that this information is updated here, as this information is used in the 'Search for a Rotary Club' feature on the RIBI site. It is also important that if you make changes, you still notify RIBI at Alcester of the changes, as this web database is completely separate to the one used to produce the directories, which contain the personal data of Club Presidents and Secretaries, District Officers etc.

Club Details

  1. IF YOU ARE USING ANY OF THE FACILITIES beyond keeping your basic club details accurate (meeting, website), make sure the tickbox is ticked in the top row. This generates the link from the 'search results' page. YOUR CLUB SHOULD ALSO BE MAKING AN ANNUAL DONATION TO FOUNDATION if using the system.
  2. Enter an email address. THE ADDRESS IS NOT SHOWN ANYWHERE ON THE SITE AND YOU WLL NOT RECEIVE 'SPAM' AS A RESULT OF INCLUDING IT HERE! This address is used as the primary point of contact for your club (e.g. another club using the email facilities to contact other clubs). However, it is NOT used for the 'Contact Form'.
  3. Enter the 'short address' for your club website. If you don't have one, see 'your club website address'
  4. Add your meeting day and meeting time and the venue in the appropriate boxes.
  5. Add the postcode of your meeting place in the appropriate box - this is used to generate a 'multimap' link, showing visitors how to find your meeting place. It's not 100% accurate if you meet out in the sticks, but much better than nothing!
  6. (If you wish to upload a picture of your meeting place, click the 'Venue Picture' from the menu, click the 'browse..' button then find where the picture is located on your computer and upload it. Pictures must be in either .jpg/jpeg or .gif format, or the upload will fail.)
  7. If your meeting place has a website, you can add it - you might even tell them that you'll put a link to their site and ask for a donation to Foundation!
  8. Similarly, if there is a website giving more information about your locality, add the address in the 'locality URL' box.
