Centennial Rotary General MeetingOn Tuesday, August 7th, 2007 Custodian--Assume it was Paul Bell was rung close to on time by President Jennifer. AnnouncementsKent introduced two guests, one potential new member and the speakers. Rotary MinuteKent spoke on membership. Please keep up your efforts introducing folks to the wonderful world of Rotary. National Sports Day for the Disabled event is upcoming and more people raised their hands then have committed to Mark Gale. Please contact him for assignments. Pete said that October 6th is our day for Rebuild America, so please mark your calendars. We need a dozen plus to make it work. Peaches are still for sale. Keep taking orders and remind your contacts that ours are from the final picking, making them the best. Jennifer and others attended last weekend’s RI Membership Seminar. RI President Wilf was presiding and many good ideas were exchanged. Jennifer used this time to implore us to bring visitors to meetings. Attendance requirements will soon be lowered to just 50%. This may make it easier for others to commit to Rotary. Please remember that we are all the Membership Chair. Hank gave us an update on his health. He is having some additional surgery Tuesday at Swedish. He thanked everyone for their calls, thoughts and prayers. He expects to be back in about 6 weeks. He won’t know about chemo until after next week’s surgery. Pete announced that both Boards approved supporting the Parker Club in the upcoming large water project in India. He will keep us apprised of the situation. The weekly challenge was "I love reading science fiction." It was Kye, guessed by (unreadable.) Mr. Penmanship brought back a traveling gift from KY. He said it is a puzzle, looked like a chastity belt. Directions will be auctioned off separately. Happy Bucks
ProgramJoe Sabath and his side kick, Diana Hall-- Joe is the founder of the Colorado Speaker’s Association and author of two books. He has had guest appearance on 667 radio talk shows across the country. He spoke about his stroke and how easy it is to have one. He shared that there are over 750,000 strokes suffered each year, 1/3 die, 1/3 are wheelchair bound for life and the other 1/3 have partial or total recovery. He gave us the indicators for a stroke and passed out an info sheet on things to "guarantee a stroke." I apologize as your editor for not putting in more of the speech, but I had to scoot and Jeff did a great job of picking up for Ruparel, who did a good job picking up for Piercy. Not having more information emphasizes what a bummer it is when you don’t attend a meeting. We need you and the speakers are always wonderful and informative. Please pick up you attendance and if you are assigned a task, either show up and do it or find someone who can. MarblesLaurie drew a clear marble after having the winning number. The pot continues to grow. Help it do so by purchasing tickets each week. PLEASE BRING IN YOUR PIGGY BANKS NEXT WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
