Melissa O'Neil from Central Iowa Shelter and Services, the largest homeless shelter in the Des Moines area, was our speaker last week. It was alarming to learn that there so many people who are in extreme poverty right here in the center of Iowa. Thanks Melissa for your enlightening presentation. And thanks to Melissa Horton, Executive Director of the Altoona Chamber, for all the great programs you brought to us last month.

This is Caring Hands week, so please be prepared to make a donation tomorrow.

We are looking forward to another great program from our Rotarian of the Day - Marti Kline.

Last week Melissa Horton from the Altoona Chamber hosted Adam Hammes of the Iowa Sustainable Business Forum. He serves the Forum as the Executive Director. Their mission is to connect Iowa businesses to continuously improve practices that positively impact people, planet, and profits. Adam is the author of "Sustainable Business in Iowa: How Leading Companies Profit From Environment & Social Responsibility."

This week will be the last in the Chamber series. Thanks so much to Melissa Horton for providing our speakers this month. They have all been very informative and helped bring us up to date on what's going on in our community and the surrounding area. Melissa O'Neil from the Central Iowa Shelter and Services will be our presenter tomorrow. Please plan to attend, as this will also be a very interesting program.

Dirk Halupnik will be the Sergeant at Arms.

Here's What's Happening This Week at Rotary

Posted by Norma Bettis on Oct 09, 2018

Last week we had the honor to have District Governor Tom Narak and his wife Carol visit our club. They visit all 65 clubs in District 6000 in their first five months which starts July 1. This is an arduous schedule because they meet with the board of each club, and then attend their regular meeting. It is always inspiring to have the district governor come to present their goals for the current year. This year the emphasis is on Prevention of Child Abuse, Literacy, and, of course, Polio Eradication. These are all very important projects which have mostly been directed to the youth. However, President Hartwig presented an idea for our club to participate in a Literacy project for adults, which we hope would be very beneficial to their children also. We are all called to "Be the Inspiration," which is Rotary International President, Barry Rassin's, slogan for this year. Each person who attended last weeks meeting received a "Be the Inspiration" pin. Please wear it proudly.

President Mike has been working with Melissa Horton at the Altoona Chamber, and they have set up the following meetings for October:

October 10 - Altoona Mayor Dean O'Connor

October 17 - Julie Jordan, Vintage Cooperatives

October 24 - Adam Hammes, Iowa Sustainable Business Forum

Last week we met in our committees to plan future activities and report to the club.

Thanks so much to all the Rotary members who helped with the Caring Hands Hunger Run/Community Picnic on a rainy Sunday afternoon. The aroma of the pork roast was very prevalent the minute you came on the grounds. Many hands made fast work of the pulled pork, and several other members helped to get everything set up and ready for the picnic. I think everyone agreed the pork was delicious, and they also enjoyed the yummy desserts brought by the ladies from Rotary. A special thanks to Clay Willey and Prairie Meadows for the potato salad and baked beans. All in all it was a special day despite the miserable weather.

The Rotary Board members meet with District Governor Tom Narak and his wife Carol at Eric Borseth's office tonight at 7 p.m. We are excited to report on the projects we've been involved in this past year, and anxious to learn Governor Narak's goals for the coming year. He will be at our meeting in the morning to present these to the whole club. Please plan to attend this important meeting.

Last week Paul presented Corinne and Catherine to challenge us to perform a very difficult task of working on a budget for a single mother with two children on limited income. It was very eye-opening to realize the hard decisions she would have to make to provide the bare necessities for food and shelter, and the ordinary things she would have to eliminate just to survive.

This week we are looking forward to an interesting program from Mary Rork-Watson.

Last week Larry Wilson invited Keith Hyland to speak on the rules for applying for Medicare and information on some of the supplemental insurance plans that go with it. For those approaching 65, it is very important to know that you have a short window of time to apply for Medicare without incurring a penalty. Thanks Larry for hosting Keith, and thanks to Keith for providing this vital information.

This was the week of the wild hog hunt in Centerville, Texas and from the photos provided by Eric, we can see that it was very successful. Eric Borseth, Mike Hartwig, Gregg Lynes, Brad Miller and Kevin Jasa all made the 13-hour trip and came back with more than enough meat to supply the Caring Hands Community Picnic on September 30. Eric reported that they harvested nine pigs at over 1,400 pounds of pork on the hoof. We will get a full report and the photos on this tomorrow at Rotary. (I'm sorry, but I haven't been able to copy over Eric's pictures which give you a better idea of what this is all about.)

We are also looking forward to the program tomorrow by Corinne Lambert and Paul Cornelius as they work on completing a poverty simulation. This will coordinate well with out Caring Hands project.

Last week was our Birthday Auction meeting. It was very interesting to hear the personal stories of the members who donated their gifts, and a fun time when the winning bidders got to open their secret gifts. Mike Hartwig donated to the Rotary Foundation, Ryan Edsen to Dorothy's House, Darrell Hansen to Caring Hands, and Eric Borseth to Freedom for Youth. We are looking forward to next quarter when those having a birthday during those months get to bring their gifts and tell their stories, and some very deserving charities will receive the proceeds.

This week Rotarian of the Day, Larry Wilson, will have Keith Hyland as our speaker.
