Rule of 85
The "Rule of 85" is the commonly used term for a specific type of excused absence as specified in Article 9, Section 3(b) of the standard club constitution. This has been updated in the 2016 Council on Legislation. 
 
A member's absence can be excused if the member has at least 20 years of Rotary service and their age plus years of service is equal to, or greater than, 85. The member must notify the club secretary in writing of their desire to be excused from attendance, and then receive board approval.
 
Several of our club members are eligible for this exemption - check that your birthdates and Rotary joining dates are correct and notify Leslie Vashler if you would like to receive this exemption.
