From the President

First of all, I need to make a correction to last week's article.  In reflecting upon New Year’s Resolutions that tend to be "Less" and "More" I said that this year I look to "less TV and more reading."  Naturally I was not referring to the wonderful, intellectually stimulating Public Television available to us through KVIE.  Knowing you are all good Rotarians, it probably goes without saying, but I wanted to err on clarity on that matter.  Far be it from me or you to watch mindless hours of commercial television.  (No one will be asked to answer that question)

Take Me Out to the Ball Game.  There is an upcoming event that I want you all to consider how you can participate.  It is Rotary Day at the River Cats.  Sunday, April 10 the 1:05 pm game at Raley Field is Rotary Day.  All of the Clubs in our District 5180, and several clubs from neighboring districts will be participating.  As with the former WNBA events, this is a true opportunity for a Triple Play.

One: A portion of every ticket sold goes to Polio Plus, (on average about 30% of the ticket price.  Both the Club and your RI account will be credited with this donation.)  

Two: By purchasing ten tickets for $100 you can send 10 children to the Ball Game.

Three: By purchasing a ticket for yourself and family you will have the opportunity to join five thousand fellow Rotarians in a great day.

But wait, there is more...there are incentives all along the way for both Club ticket sales, and total ticket sales.  In other words, it is a win-win-win scenario.

There will be order forms available at the upcoming Monday meetings.  All ticket orders must be in by February 21.

President Scot
