September Speakers
There was no meeting on Monday, September 5th as we observed the Labor Day holiday.
On September 12th, club member and Casper City Manager Carter Napier gave us an update on how the One Cent tax has been used in the past.
On September 19th, we met at the Casper-Natrona County International Airport and heard from Shelby McMillan and Michelle Belt about addiction, overdosing, and recovery.
On September 26th we heard from Grady Booch about IBM's role in quantum computing.
October Speakers
On October 3rd, we welcomed Tyler Cessor, Executive Director of ART 321. He spoke about their 100th year of service in Wyoming in 2024, goals and vision for the arts ecosystem in Wyoming through their recently released 2022-2024 Strategic Plan: "The Plan for 100 Years of Service."
On October 10th we will hear from Guy Sallade, Career Facilitator at Natrona County School District. As a Career Facilitator, Guy gets to act as a tour guide in introducing students to post-high school options, whether college, career, or military ready. Natrona County School District also has a College Coach that focuses on and aids students on college choices, so Guy focuses on options for students not college bound, at least at this time. Those options may include work, a trade school, Job Corps, and the military.
On October 17th we will hear from Dr. Marny Eulberg about Polio Awareness.
On October 24th, we'll have a very special presentation from our Exchange Student, Alice Virungi.
The October 31st meeting will be about Water and the West from John Lawson.

RESPONDING TO FLOODS IN PAKISTAN
September is National Preparedness Month, a time to highlight the importance of preparing for emergencies that may strike in our community or communities around the world. It comes as multiple disasters affect millions of people worldwide, including recent catastrophic flooding that destroyed over 1.9 million homes in Pakistan.
As a humanitarian organization, we understand that preparedness is integral to helping more families in less time after a disaster. Using aid pre-positioned in Dubai, ShelterBox mobilized quickly to help the thousands of families devastated by the flooding and left with nowhere to live.
Our response team is on the ground delivering emergency supplies, including essentials to protect families from the elements and kickstart their recovery during this difficult time: tents, tarps, water filters and carriers, mosquito nets, and solar lights.
