ATTENTION ROTARIANS –
This Sunday, April 27th is the last day to
register for the District Conference. Governor
Vic and his team need to give the Peppermill
the counts for food, so even if you are only going to the Saturday
Night Gala and the Sunday Breakfast, you need to get your registration
in. Please go to www.rotarydistrictconference.org
to register online. If you would rather fax your registration
form, visit the District
5190 website. If you need the form and can’t get one,
please call me at 470-0677 and I’ll get one to you. This
year’s conference is going to be a little different, so
don’t miss it!
Our Group Study Exchange team had a great time
in our area. They arrived on Friday, toured our area on Saturday,
and rested with their host families on Sunday. On Monday, the
team attended Vocational Tours and gave an interesting presentation
to the Rotary clubs in our area. Dave & Gayle Denney
hosted the Systems Analyst, Daniel Braga; Shirl
Mendonca hosted the Journalist, Graziela Souza;
Eleanor Kenitzer provided the Vocational Tour
for Mining Administrator, Olemar Lopes Junior;
and David Kenitzer and Gary Gustafson
provided the Vocational Tour for Daniel. Thank you all for providing
a meaningful and warm experience for this great group of young
professionals from Brazil. Wyn & Steve Spiller
hosted a farewell dinner at the Nevada City Winery, and our
own Julie Miller created beautiful flower arrangements
for the tables. At the dinner, Olemar said to me as I was bidding
him goodbye “The Rotary Clubs in this area – very,
very good!”
Our meeting next week (May 1st) will be back
at the ranch (the National) where we will hear from the City
Council candidates. Unfortunately, my bell has again been stolen,
so please bring plenty of one dollar bills for the fining that
will occur.
