Posted by Joy Collins 
 

25 CCV Rotarians and 5 guests were inspired by CCV Rotarian Ralph Martin's story about writing in sand and on stone.

Club President Emily Strunk led with these 3 short videos on Rotary clubs around the world:  

Emily hopes these will inspire us to reflect deeply on what projects we want to work on in the coming years.  Current and new projects are welcome for consideration.

CCV Rotarian Becky Hoeck shared useful information about RYLA and Young RYLA and then presented the CCVR-sponsored awardees.  Becca shared photos of RYLA hikes and friends made at RYLA in Estes Park.  Matt shared an overview of each YRYLA Camp day with photos.  Both proved that these Awards change lives in a positive direction.

A huge "Thank You!" to Parker Adventist Hospital for providing space and supplies and also to CCV Rotarian Josh Rivero for coordinating and leading the 9-11 Breakfast for South Metro Firefighters and Parker Police!  CCV Rotarian Mike Waid requests that all photos and videos taken from this event be loaded into the Dropbox folder labeled "9-11 Breakfast-2014" inside the "CCV Photos 2014 folder".  Contact MIke if you have any questions or difficulties with this process.
