In the following paragraphs, each of these areas is described in some detail.

Sparks - Sparks is the club newsletter and is prepared 48 of the 52 weeks per year. Its primary focus is as a forum for expressing ideas and keeping the club informed about what is happening in each of the six directorates. Each issue contains:

A column by one of the directors (or person working within the directorate) in rotation. The column describes a particular program or area of responsibility within that directorate.
A lead article by the president, expounding and expanding on the subject of his/her choice.
Information on the current- and past-week's programs as well as a short synopsis of upcoming programs for the next four to six weeks.
Regular/irregularly published columns by members in which they discuss their hobbies and their passions.
Contributory articles by members about club functions, personal points of view and brags.
A listing of member's birthdays and anniversaries.
A listing of greeters for the current and next two weeks.

Photography - This includes photos of program speakers and special events such as:

Christmas parties
Community projects
Fellowship events, etc.

PR - This responsibility is how we communicate to the community what our club projects are in the community, the nation and internationally.

Remembrance - Greeting cards are sent to members on their birthdays and anniversaries, plants or flowers are sent to members, spouses, and family members who are in the hospital, and Get Well cards are sent for members who are ill.

Webpage - www.altadenarotary.com - Our communication center to both club members and the community at large. It contains information on and about:

Officers and directors
New members
Coming events
Sparks & Sparks archives
Roster of members
Description of the areas of responsibility for each directorate
Pictures and reports on special projects
In the future - links to members' websites for indepth information on projects or to showcase their business and anything else we decide.

House - This responsibility is the setup of the meeting room and placing of banner outside of the country club proclaiming that we are currently meeting.

Sergeant-at Arms - Responsibilities include the calling on of members who are celebrating birthdays and/or anniversaries, recognition of those members who have been publicized in local newspapers, and announcements of those who have purchased new vehicles.

The former and current Club Service II directors have suggested that the "non-communication" areas be exchanged for the club roster responsibilities. This would make Club Service II responsible for all communication areas. These areas have content crossover.
