Please take time out to total up your hours that you gave to Rotary from July 1, 2017. RI would like to get an idea of the number of hours, as well as dollars, that each member/club/area contribute to Rotary. You can give your numbers to Jim on an index card or email it to him.

Rotary Minute

 

Mark T. gave us the following:

  "Approximately one dozen members of The Rotary Club of Wylde Green, U.K., joined 30 students from the Wilson Stuart School on an outing to Drayton Manor Theme Park. In all, 4,600 underprivileged and disabled children attended the theme park compliments of Rotary District 1060 in conjunction with the National Rotary KidsOut Day. KidsOut Day is a June fixture, sponsors approximately 25,000 children for viisits to more than 90 venues. 650.000 children have participated in KidsOut Day in the U.K. over the last 27 years."

 

 

Sgt. @ Arms

 

Rob threw himself into the Sgt. @ Arms assignment! He actually took the time to look up the Official Job Description!  He began by collecting dollars from the late-comers, early leavers, and the pinless.

Buzz gave Happy $$ for his surgery and success of his School Supplies collection.

Harry gave Happy $$ as he gave us a Breaside Commercial and for Buzz.

Marty gave Happy $$ for Buzz's recovery!

Hannah gave Happy $$ for Buzz's recovery.

Rolly gave Happy $$ for "a fellow recovering joint replacement person" AND because he sat back while he let Susie power wash their house!

JIm gave Happy $$ for our prospective member Lisa, another to Buzz and another to something but I can't read my notes!

Rob then proceeded to play Backwards Triva (right answer - table is fined! Funniest Answer is rewarded!)

 

 

 

The Guest Speaker for today was supposed to be me, however, due to technical alterations to the overhead projector, we will have to reschedule my presentation of ClubRunner 101, and other neat applications you can learn. (I did notice that there was a sigh of relief when this was annnounced!)
