"Jersey Lawman by James Plousis & George Ingram” - Zoom Mtg
Authors James Plousis and George Ingram will discuss “Jersey Lawman: A Life On The Right Side of Crime”. The book was awarded second-best non-fiction by the Public Safety Writers Association in a National Competition. Plousis describes the exciting people, cases, and issues he's been involved with over more than four decades--Donald J. Trump, Bernie Madoff, 9/11, Little Nicky Scarfo, Hurricane Katrina, Chris Christie, and much more.
In a book that TV personality John Walsh calls the story of "a remarkable career in law enforcement," author James Plousis describes the exciting people, cases, and issues he's been involved with over more than four decades--Donald J. Trump, Bernie Madoff, 9/11, Little Nicky Scarfo, Hurricane Katrina, Chris Christie, and much more. Written in clear, straight-ahead prose, "Jersey Lawman: A Life On the Right Side of Crime" is the product of a life spent helping good people and putting the bad ones behind bars.----- “I have played many law-enforcement roles as a sheriff, cop, and federal agent in television and movies, so it is an honor to recommend this book about the real life of a sheriff and U.S. marshal in New Jersey. Jim Plousis is a man I know and have worked with to make Camden, New Jersey, a safer community.” -Actor Brian Dennehy, winner of two Tony Awards, a Golden Globe Award, a Screen Actors Guild Award, and six Emmy nominations.
Our Club will be hosting an inbound exchange student for the 2021-22 school year. We also have an excellent outbound student applying this year who is a senior at McCaskey High School.
You received an e-mail from the Club asking you to complete a Youth Exchange Survey. Please take a minute to complete and submit the survey. The link is below. Please make sure you put your name on the form at the bottom where it says "Name and School District in which you reside." More info will be coming soon, but please consider participating in some way in this very important and culturally-enriching experience!
Your donation must be received online or by our club office no later than Friday, December 4th, 2020.
The generosity of this club is absolutely inspiring. I'm pleased to announce that in just one week, our club has already raised over $6,000 for this year's Secret Angel project. I want to sincerely thank all of our Secret Angel donors for your generosity and support of Reynolds students. Although we have exceeded our initial fundraising goal of $1,500, I urge you to still consider donating to this important program. Although we have raised enough funds through this club to cover the gifts for each refugee and immigrant student at Reynolds, you can continue to contribute to ensure that every student in the Secret Angel program receives a gift card this holiday season. Donations for the Secret Angel project will be closed once we reach $10,000. If we raise $10,000 dollars, not only will every student in the Secret Angel program receive a gift card, but we may also be able to raise the gift card amount from $15 to $20.
On behalf of the Rotary Refugee Center and Community School Committee, thank you for your incredible generosity and community impact.
Sincerely, Josh McManness and the
The Rotary Refugee Center and Community School Committee
