Volunteers needed to fight human trafficking! 
Suburban Rotary is leading a multi-club District Grant to fight sex trafficking in District 5650 by training hotel/motel workers how to spot signs of trafficking and report to law enforcement.  The District is partnering with the Coalition on Human Trafficking to do this.   
 
We are looking for Rotarians who are willing to attend a 4 hour training session in the next couple of months and then commit to training 3 hotels/motels (45 minutes each) over the next six months.  You can make a difference in eliminating this scourge from our community.
 
CLICK HERE to select a session.  For questions contact Jennifer at the office.

Suburban Rotary will be hosting the all-city metro Rotary luncheon at Anthony's on Thursday, October 4th.   This will be a plated luncheon featuring Nebraska Athletic Director Bill Moos as our speaker.
 
 
Reservations will start this week and will be $25 a person. Who do you know who'd like to hear Bill speaker?   This is NOT a walk-in event. Reservations are required. Other Rotary clubs will be taking reservations at their meetings as well.
 
Date: Thursday, October 4th
Time: 11:30am-1pm
Cost: $25 pp- plated luncheon including dessert
Location: Anthony's Restaurant

New Committee Opportunities
