Editor Marilyn Bedell/Meeting notes taken by Bruce Pacht (thanks!)
A top priority for Rotary is growing and diversifying our membership to make sure we reflect the communities we serve.
We're creating an organization that is more open and inclusive, fair to all, builds goodwill, and benefits our communities. We want people with differing perspectives and ideas who will help Rotary take action to create lasting change in communities around the world
Thanks to Plymouth, NH Rotarian and Owner of the Common Man Restaurants, Alex Ray we were be able to provide FREE washable face masks to folks in the Upper Valley. We issued approximately 3,200 masks to households in the Upper Valley and beyond. We had cars from beyond NH and Vt. We gave two masks to each person in a household, one to wear and one to wash. We had fun working with the Rotary Club of Hanover and were appreciative of the support we got from from the Upper Valley Business Alliance, the Upper Valley Young Professionals, and our Interactors from Mascoma High School. Check out the article in the Valley News on Sunday about Mask Up Upper Valley. Click Here
Once again, folks coming for masks were very generous, and donated $2,061.62 which will be split between The Haven and Listen for food needs in the Upper Valley. In addition we were able to donate some masks to the Hanover, Lebanon and Hartford police departments to be able to distribute to individuals not wearing masks when they should be as new rules have been put in place to require masks in our communities.
Ernst Oidtmann – Born in a town on the Maas river which comes into the Netherlands from France.There is a bishop there with a palace and cathedral.They have an expression that means “We’re down to earth people.”

Winter Spring 2019
Ernst was born August 6, 1945.
His mother was liberated by the American 9th Army. His father spent a winter in the north of Holland where Germans tried to starve the Dutch at 900 calories a day.[Ernst finished reading his father’s diaries and now has to translate them!]. In Maastricht, father became secretary of the electric company and that’s where they lived.
Ernst is the oldest of 7 children.His last aunt died one month ago. She sat in Rommel’s lap in 1940 when he came through town when she was 14 or 16 years old.(Try that today!). Her family had been taken prisoner.
Maastricht was liberated by American 9th army.The high school behind Ernst’s home became the Army headquarters.Ernst showed a photo of Generals Eisenhower, Montgomery, Simpson and Bradley standing on the steps of his high school.
Another feature of Ernst’s modesty:
Grandmother spent 10 days in jail, father 3 months in jail, and Uncle Peter 3 years in San Quentin!
Grandmother was betrayed by a neighbor who noticed during the occupation that grandmother would go to the attic. Neighbor surmised she was listening to the BBC.
Father beat up a National Socialist collaborator in a swimming pool and got a 3-month sentence. Ernst thinks that cousins in the German army kept an eye on his grandmother and father when they were in jail.
Uncle, despite all kinds of shenanigans in Maastricht against the Germans, emigrated to the US. At the end of his family doctor career in Berkeley, he volunteered to work in San Quentin for 3 years.
Hobbies – Ernst loves to play piano. It all started with Mozart. Parents received a radio and gramophone when Ernst was 12, finally giving him the opportunity to play the records he’d accumulated.His mother who poo-pooed them, but the first one was the Requiem by Mozart and he was hooked forever on classical music.
In 1972, Ernst was doing a research fellowship in British Columbia where he went to an evening recital of Mozart.Linda was sitting 5 seats away; during the intermission, he made his move.They went for a hike together and the rest is history, plus a couple of children.
Ernst also build extremely detailed, large scale ship models. As to real boating, he was out on Lake Tarleton in Piermont today with his kayak,
Ernst is a past president of Lebanon Rotary and has also served as community service chair.He became VP when Jim Howard moved away and then was president during Lebanon Rotary’s 75th anniversary year.Tim’s father, Larry Guaraldi, and Allan Hirsch brought him into Rotary in 1983 when the club was meeting at Landers Restaurant on Route 120.
Ernst’s father started a Lions club in their province of southern Lindberg.They met every two weeks in the best restaurant in Falkenburg.[NOT SURE IF THIS WAS ERNST HIMSELF OR HIS MOTHER OR WHAT.]
Ernst is passionate about the cleanliness of the Mascoma River and currently chairs Lebanon’s conservation committee.
Ernst wen into medicine because his grandfather was a “house doctor” who made house calls in the evening.When Ernst was in medical school, he drove his grandfather around on his home visits.
Ernst’s uncle in Berkeley was a mentor as well.Linda was a Canadian but Canada wouldn’t let Ernst into a residence program there.He heard of something in Michigan so wrote to them.A month later he was sent a contract from Dearborn by a guy who went to school with Uncle Peter.Ernst spent 3 years there 1979-1982, after which he
came into the Family Practice Group from which he retired in May, 2019.
Paul offered Ernst the chair of Lebanon Rotary’s “Support the Environment” committee.Ernst turned it down which Paul ignored and then thanked Ernst for his acceptance of the post.
Gathering CONFIRMED — Social Distancing Meeting with the Rotary Club of Hanover
Date: August 26, 2020 — 12 Noon
Who is Invited: Lebanon Rotarians and their guests welcome to come.
Food: Bring your own Lunch - Dick Podolec will provide an individually wrapped ice cream treat for dessert...I believe it will be a product made by his daughter's business in California.
Program: John Tilley, Executive Director for Camp Coniston will tell us about the camp.
Where we will meet: Plan on gathering outside, with a large room available should weather require it.
Please review all the documents sent on Thursday, July 30, 2020. Now is the time to recruit golfers, sponsor and raffle prizes
Highlights shared at our on July 30, 2020 :
Committee – Bill Babineau, Dean Cashman, Ed Friedman, Sean Mullholland, Rich Wallace. Thank your TEAM GOLF! Happy to have additional members.
Golf Team has been trying to understand COVID re: golf. Golfers as interested in getting out to play; social distancing on the course is possible.
We have SEPTEMBER 17, 2020 reserved at Eastman. The tournament is SIX WEEKS AWAY!
If possible it will be the traditional format (shotgun) at the moment this still seems possible as it meets state requirements, thought this could change. If shotgun, it will tee off at 11:00 AM; if tee times are required, starts will be spread out. Rich reported that Eastman may require tee times for a tournament there on September 2; this may affect our plan for shotgun. Stay tuned for updates.
Some of the changes due to Covid-19: everything outdoors (registration under a tent); after-golf events very limited. Team will work with golf course staff to understand requirements for set up and managing raffle.
Committee has decided that even a smaller raffle would be lots of fun. We think there are people who would like to donate. It can be done with social distancing, so we will reach out to donors and sponsors.
Carts: Some courses are allowing 2 persons per cart; others require 1 per cart.
Food – box lunches are being planned as of now.
No rain date; we go, rain or shine.
Bruce sent an email today with 3 attachments: (1) brochure for players, sponsors and donors (2) List of all of last year’s teams – identifies who is the contact for that team – we’re asking you to contact everyone on the list. Last year we had more teams than in quite some time. Review the list, please. (3) Sponsors and Donors are listed along with the Rotarian who solicited them and what the organization did for us.
Sport Memorabilia Silent Auction – We haven’t talked about it yet. It would be difficult in the rain, and we make only a couple hundred dollars from this part of the effort.
Eastman’s restaurant is open for inside and outside dining now. So Player may be able to eat there after the tournament if they want to do this.
Haven’t talked about foursome photos.
Call for volunteers at the Tournament will go out soon.
YOUR TASK...GO THROUGH THE LISTS. LET TEAM GOLF KNOW RIGHT AWAY IF YOU CANNOT FOLLOW UP WITH RESPONSIBILITIES FROM LAST YEAR. If you have concerns about contacting a biz because of their economic challenges, let us know – we don’t expect you to ask someone if you are confident that they are not in a position to help out. Bruce Bergeron does see that some businesses are doing better than you might think and are willing to help out.
You are welcome to contact others – let us know so we can add them to the list.
The committee will divide and contact Rotarians not on this Zoom call to make sure they receive all this information.
Location: Slayton Hill rd; it branches off to the east about half mile south of Mascoma River.
Parking: problematic. 3 cars in line on the actual trail and along Slayton Hill Rd itself.
Bring signs of “ROTARY AT WORK”.
I walked the trail July 22. We will need about 10-15 people.
The first 200 yards are heavily overgrown with weeds so a weedwacker will come in handy.
At 200 yards there is water runoff from the neighboring property where more stepping stones are needed.
At 300 yards 2 trees have fallen across the trail. I suggest that from the larger one, a hemlock, we cut a 12 foot section, flatten one side and move it about 20 yards to bridge another drainage area (easy to move with 2 or 3 straps and cross bars). Maybe do the same with the smaller tree.
From there it is pretty easy going with minor trail improvements. Consider slowing down the current of the intermittent brook alongside the trail with available rocks.
At the large cellar hole there is a lot of Bar Berry, an invasive species, which we might cut down with pruners. This is also the spot where the trail from the cemetery joins.
Enjoy the rest of the trail with a stroll to the top of Townsend Farm and view!
Ernst Oidtmann will share more information once dates are set.
Moorings
We were welcomeed to the meeting by Paul Tierney. He was broadcasting live from Three Tomatoes with an unstable Internet connection while sitting at a table with stable Rotarians, Ron Michaud and Ed Friedman. It looked like wine was an important part of the meal.
Four Way Test: Ernst gave us a second Dutch-modified version. Not resembling:
The 4-Way Test of the things we think, say or do'
Is it the truth?
Is it fair to all concerned?
Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
History of the 4-Way Test:
One of the world’s most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The Four-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as RI president) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy.
This 24-word test for employees to follow in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The Four-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways. Read more by CLICKING HERE

SHARING HAPPY THOUGHTS OR CONCERNS:
Joy Gobin lost electricity, internet and a very big tree down, but she is on the call. Most of Eastman just got their power back; she lives in Grantham proper. Rich Wallace reports that he had a 4-hour loss of electricity in Springfield.
Paul’s happy to see everyone on Zoom with wine glass in hand.
Bill & Linda Secord walked around the grounds and had a picnic at St. Gaudens.
Rich was on a Zoom gathering with the football coach of his alma mater, UNH. Very entertaining.
Steve Whitman – Dartmouth football was written up in the Wall Street Journal. NFL will be going non-contact sat their practices as Dartmouth head coach Buddy Teevens introduced at Dartmouth a few years ago. Buddy spoke to us about this a one of our meeting awhile ago. Click HERE for the article.
Paul Tierney asked if Jane Mason would attend a reinstituted Salt hill Tuesday gathering; people who don’t show up in the flesh could Zoom in. Jane said she might be able to join by Zoom, but feels she must continue to isolate on behalf of the 3 vulnerable folks in her household.
Paul Tierney asked Marilyn Bedell if she thought Paul would be “at risk” for COVID-19 because of his exposure to agent Orange in Viet Nam. Marilyn said, “Possibly.”
Marilyn Bedell on behalf of JoAnn Limeiux – Joann lost all Internet capabilities from the storm. She plans to help with Mask-Up tomorrow. She is sorry she is missing our meeting.
Ernst Oidtmann – Regarding Paul's question about Covid-19, “From the looks of you all, you don’t look younger than 45-50. If you have lung disease, exposure to chemicals, heart conditions, etc., you are in a higher class of risk. If we are together, we need to wear masks and everyone should stay upwind from everyone else, a clever trick if you can manage it.
Paul Tierney made a model of the new home he plans to build. Since then, he’s decided to make a more contemporary house. Carol was able to envision it much better with the model. It’s going to be a great adventure.
Paul Tierney bragged about his capabilities as a great negotiator. From whom have we heard that line before? We’ll be negotiated so well we’ll be sick of negotiating!
Ernst Oidtmann had two unhappy dollars: (1) My sister Alexandra biking in California ran into a pedestrian. She broke her olecranon (“the large, thick, curved bony eminence of the ulna, a long bone in the forearm that projects behind the elbow”). – it will be healed by a placing a screw. (2) Ernst’s piano teacher’s home burned to the ground. They live about a mile off a paved road with their nearest neighbor half a mile away. The couple were in Maine and their piano burned as well...very sad news.

SAD NEWS: DON MITCHELL, DECEASED FORMER CHEF AT APD. A reflection from Ernst Oidtmann: When Ernst was doing baby deliveries all night at APD, Don would take care that he had a breakfast. Both belonged to the Grafton County Fish and Game Club. Don was an expert at tarp shooting – “He’d take 200 shots and miss only 3 traps!” He allowed Ernst to use his little cabin in the woods in the middle of the wilderness in winter -- when they could find the key, that is. Paul added that Don was also the long-time volunteer coach for the Thetford girls’ softball team.

Montpelier Rotarian - Emily Gould's Peace Building Work in Rwanda
By Marty Peak Helman,
Rotary Zone 32's Donald MacRae Peace Award Recipient, Emily Gould from the Rotary Club of Montpelier, VT, USA
Emily Gould, a member of the Montpelier Rotary Club in District 7850, is Zone 32’s recipient of the 2019 Donald MacRae award. Emily is a lawyer, mediator, Columbia law school lecturer, and a critical player in a peace-building and trauma-informed mediation development in Rwanda. She is also a founding member of Mediators Beyond Borders International and co-director of the U.S.-based African Peace Partners.
Emily’s peace-building story began when she was a criminal prosecutor in Vermont, working to prosecute staff who sexually abused patients in psychiatric institutions. Eventually, her career moved from attorney to mediator. “Silence perpetuates the violence,” she says, just as it does with domestic abuse. “We need to bring it to consciousness.” Then, in 1994, 800,000 people were killed in a three month period in Rwanda, and an estimated 250,000 to 500,000 women and girls were raped. In the aftermath,
Emily traveled to Rwanda to see what she could do to help. “I found that there were already experienced mediators in-country,” she said. What they needed was technical assistance in working with highly traumatized people. This is where the work of Mediators Beyond Borders came in. But as Emily’s work continued, it was clear that there was also need for a place – a peace center – in Rwanda. “There’s an interdependence of place and mission,” Emily says. “We’ve created an island of peace in a choppy sea.”
Thus, she co-founded African Peace Partners, a US-based non-profit, which partners with Ihumure, a Rwandan NGO, and community-based organization of peace education. “I became a Rotarian when I realized that Rotary’s philosophy was all about relationships,” she says. “Without relationships, the program would die. In Rotary – as in Africa – we build trust. Africa is a relationship culture, and so is Rotary.“
The peace center is home to a group of highly trained volunteers who have created a model of peace building that builds on conflict transformation, trauma recovery and economic independence. “But the peace center must be able to respond to what is happening at the moment,” Emily emphasizes. And since the pandemic hit, that has included food distribution. “You might not think that food dstribution is part of our mission,” she says, “but then consider that starvation was one of the factors that led to the genocide.”
While the work of the peace center continues, Emily has also worked to build an infrastructure that will serve Rwanda well into the future. This has led her to serve as a consultant to the Ministry of Justice on an initiative to expand both mediation and restorative justice. “Rwanda is in the process of adopting the first trauma-informed justice policy of any country in the world,” she says. “Rwanda is out in front in creating new legal and social structures to manage trauma. “ “As the Black Lives Matter movement here in the US is beginning to lead to serious discussions about reparations and efforts of truth and reconciliation, Rwanda is a country that we can learn from.”
Emily Gould’s work to build lasting peace in Rwanda is changing the lives not only in that country but far beyond.
Emily Gould stands with a representative from the Mayor’s office in front of the peace center. The grassy area now holds a huge outdoor tent to conduct socially distanced, outdoor workshops.
Jennifer E. Jones, a member of the Rotary Club of Windsor-Roseland, Ontario, Canada, has been nominated to become Rotary International’s president for 2022-23, a groundbreaking selection that will make her the first woman to hold that office in the organization’s 115-year history.
Jones will officially become president-nominee on 1 October if no other candidates challenge her.
Jones says she sees Rotary’s Action Plan as a catalyst for increasing Rotary’s impact.
“As we reflect upon our new strategic priorities, we could have never envisioned that our ability to adapt would become our North Star during what is inarguably the most profound time in recent history,” Jones said in her vision statement. “Silver linings rise out of the most challenging circumstances. Using metric-driven goals, I will harness this historic landscape to innovate, educate, and communicate opportunities that reflect today’s reality.”
As the first woman to be nominated to be president, Jones understands how important it is to follow through on Rotary’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Statement. “I believe that diversity, equity, and inclusion … begins at the top and for us to realize growth in female membership and members under the age of forty — these demographics need to see their own reflection in leadership,” Jones said. “I will champion double-digit growth in both categories while never losing sight of our entire family.”
Jones is founder and president of Media Street Productions Inc., an award-winning media company in Windsor. She was chair of the board of governors of the University of Windsor and chair of the Windsor-Essex Regional Chamber of Commerce. She has been recognized for her service with the YMCA Peace Medallion, the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal, and Wayne State University’s Peacemaker of the Year Award, a first for a Canadian. Jones holds a Doctor of Laws (LL.D.).
A current Rotary Foundation trustee, Jones has been a Rotary member since 1997 and has served Rotary as RI vice president, director, training leader, committee chair, moderator, and district governor. She played a lead role in Rotary’s rebranding effort by serving as chair of the Strengthening Rotary’s Advisory Group. She is the co-chair of the End Polio Now Countdown to History Campaign Committee, which aims to raise $150 million for polio eradication efforts.
Jones recently led the successful #RotaryResponds telethon, which raised critical funds for COVID-19 relief and was viewed by more than 65,000. Jones has also received Rotary International’s Service Above Self Award and The Rotary Foundation Citation for Meritorious Service. She and her husband, Nick Krayacich, are members of The Rotary Foundation’s Arch Klumph Society, Paul Harris Society, and the Bequest Society.
The members of the Nominating Committee for the 2022-23 President of Rotary International are: Robert L. Hall, Dunwoody, Metro Atlanta, Georgia, USA; Bradford R. Howard Oakland Uptown, California, USA; Per Høyen, Aarup, Gelsted, Denmark; Peter Iblher, Nürnberg-Reichswald, Zirndorf, Germany; Ashok Mahajan, Mulund, Mah., India; Sam Okudzeto, Accra, Accra, Ghana; Eduardo San Martín Carreño, Majadahonda, Madrid, Spain; Takeshi Matsumiya, Chigasaki-Shonan, Chigasaki Kanagawa, Japan; Michael K. McGovern (secretary), Cape Elizabeth, Maine, USA; José Alfredo Pretoni, São Paulo-Sul, São Paulo, Brazil; Saowalak Rattanavich, Bang Rak, Bangkok, Thailand; Hendreen Dean Rohrs, Langley Central, Surrey, British Columbia, Canada; Kenneth M. Schuppert, Jr (chair)., Decatur, Alabama, USA; Ravindra P. Sehgal, Belur, West Bengal, India; Noel Trevaskis, Merimbula, Tura Beach, Australia; Giuseppe Viale, Genova, Genova, Italy; and Chang-Gon Yim, Daegu-West, Daegu, Korea.
