Last week Holly Hollenbeck served as our Greeter. Dan Lupardus gave the invocation. We had several announcements and presentations. We heard from one of our outbound exchange students and Chase Dodge who just returned from Argentina after a year abroad. Greg Kadrlik introduced John Wehrle who talked about the Salvation Army Kroc Center's mission and the Bacon Fest fundraiser. The risk bag was at $77and Norm Kerr won a free lunch.
Last week Julie Livingston and Howard Epstein recognized several club members as supporters of the International Rotary Foundation. The Rotary Foundation supports projects around the world to promote peace, literacy, health, and disease eradication.
Doug Geyer was recognized as a Paul Harris fellow for his donations of $1000 to the Rotary Foundation. When asked why he supports the Foundation Doug said, "I give to The Rotary Foundation because someone asked me to. I know the good TRF does and I want to help with that, but if someone hadn’t asked, I might have just blown it off."
Tom Vann was recognized as a Paul Harris Fellow +7 for his donations of $8000 to the Rotary Foundation. Tom says he supports the Foundation because the Rotary Foundation is one of the best causes he can think to invest in.
Thank you and congratulations to both Doug and Tom!
Last week John Ryan presented Curt Peters with the official Presidential Jacket courtesy of Jerry Ryan Clothing. They have been making our Presidents look snazzy for almost 30 years! Thanks to John and Jerry Ryan Clothing for their support.
Congratulations to Dan Hosford who was recognized for his first year of perfect attendance last week by Holly Hollenbeck. (Holly wore a special nose to celebrate our Bacon Fest speaker).
Thank you to all those who came out and helped, played, and supported this fantastic event. Although Suburban Rotary's team was eliminated early, they played with a lot of gusto! A special thank you to Penny McWilliams and Baxter Kenworthy for putting on this event. Results will be shared at an upcoming meeting. Click here to see all our photos on Facebook.
