Last week's meeting was all about Ghidotti Early College
High School with our speaker Gene Cook. Gene has been a school
counselor for 27 years and has been with Ghidotti for 6 years.
Ghidotti is located on the Sierra College Nevada County campus and
started with a grant from Bill and Melinda Gates. We are very
lucky to have so many educational options for students in Nevada
County. For more information check out
www.nuhsd.org.
Thanks to:
George Rebane and George Foster for offering tickets to the
TechForum for a few students from Ghidotti.
Everyone who brought in magazines. We had a large box to deliver
to the Sierra Nevada Hospital Foundation who will distribute them
at the hospital.
Terry Boyer for giving us an update on his upcoming presidency,
new Board, and commitment from John Hensley for a project in
Mexico.
Juan
Viejo and Otro Viejo for their generous contributions last week.
Congratulations to:
New bell ringer Ed Townsend. Well done Ed.
George Rebane on his birthday trip to Visalia. We are looking
forward to Visalia stories when George returns.
Do you know:
The name of the first Rotary president from outside the United
States?
The site of the first convention held outside North America?
Check out www.rotary.org for the answers.
Foundation firsts:
In 1929, The Rotary Foundation gave its first gift, US$500, to the
International Society for Crippled Children (later Easter Seals),
which was founded in 1921 by Rotarian Edgar F. Allen, of the
Rotary Club of Elyria, Ohio, USA.
Paul Harris Fellow recognition was established in 1957 to show
appreciation for contributions, and to encourage substantial ones,
to what was then the Foundation's only program: Rotary Foundation
Fellowships for Advanced Study, the precursor to Ambassadorial
Scholarships. Today, the recognition acknowledges individuals who
contribute, or who have contributions made in their name, $1,000
to The Rotary Foundation.
Wheel of Misfortune:
Jim Phillips spun the wheel the week before last and hopefully
will be our greeter this week. We missed you last week Jim.
Mr. Thomas A. Coleman spun the wheel and will regale us with a
synopsis of an article from this month's Rotarian Magazine.
 Reminders:
Rotarians at Work Day is April 14th this year - mark your
calendars for a busy, fun day at the fairgrounds with all the
clubs in our area.
Club Assembly is April 21st at John Ascuaga's Nugget. If you want
to learn more about Rotary in a fun way, mark your calendars.
Recipes - bring me your most loved family recipes and you can put
some candy in your pocket.
Let's all try last week's tickler at the meeting today:
You don't have to be at a desk but you must be
sitting.
While sitting make clockwise circles with your right
foot.
While doing this, draw the number " 6 " in the air
with your right hand.
Your foot will change direction.
Thursday Tickler:
One day a boy asked his grandpa "grandpa, make a frog sound."
The grandfather asked "why?"
The boy said, "Grandma says when you croak we are going to
Hawaii." |
