July 28 - Meeting Summery

Today we had a great meeting with guest speaker Dr. Kelly Volmers and her son Ben to speak about their experience on the HHART5 mission.  Kelly brought slides and explained to us the connection she made with the AAASosua.  She spade and performed surgery on many dogs at a clinic.  She also travelled to the villages and looked at the various sick dogs and prescribed medications which will be followed up by the folks at the clinic.  Kelly was encouraged to do a distribution while she was there and gave out milk to a long line of children.  Ben is now 13 and he enjoyed his trip and helped with various tasks.  Dr. Volmers has already committed to going back on HHART6!  She and her son provided a wonderful new perspective on the aid we are providing in the DR.

Great new that Bryn Styles will be a Guest Speaker at our meeting on August 25^th to talk about the restoration of the Paul Harris House.

 

Elizabeth de Groot proposed a general motion to the membership to vote on which was seconded by Peter Wilson. 
Motion:  The Rotary Club of Wasaga Beach will provide 20 bar shifts for Blues fest September 12, 13 and 14 in exchange for 20 smart serve trainings done in a group.  The date is to be determined.  We will also receive a gold sponsorship which includes our logos on posters, ad in the program and recognition at the event.  They will also allow us to sell PopCorn for Polio.  PASSED.
