Other Announcements
We received a thank you letter from Jackson Perisutti, one of the Service Above Self scholarship recipients who is attending Cleveland State majoring in urban planning. He first became aware of the Rotary club as a member of Boy Scouts Troop 701 where he volunteered for the club.
As a community organization our club can appoint a delegate to Southwest General. If you are interested in serving a two year term please let Ashley know.
Pat Greco share some pictures and videos from the Big Dreamers school in the Honduras with a thank you for the athletic equipment that was purchased with the proceeds of the 50/50 drawing at the Senior Picnic.
Membership drawing: Dan Cricks and Sandy Croft won the Guardians tickets in a drawing from people who had invited prospective members to our recent meetings.
Speaker
Last week we had our first Alumni meeting of the year.
Bill Schaffran, Amy Kocian came to share some memories, and Dave Kolick also attended to
Dan Cricks introduced Bill Schaffran, and shared how Bill use to run the reverse raffle, which was the clubs big fundraiser before the Chili Open. When Bill became president he asked Dan Cricks and Sam Lupica to take over the reverse raffle, and told them they had to wear a tux. He was only joking, but they showed up in tuxes, which was so popular they kept doing that every year after that. Bill also started the clothing drive and they used to sort at Camp Cheerful.
Many more stories were shared. Stay tuned for future alumni meetings, which are great fun, and the stories should be heard in person.
Barry Zimmerman's table won the drawing and pulled The Queen of Hearts. They are responsible for putting up the banners and selling tickets this week. This week will start a new deck..png)
