Scott Gipson, Caxton CEO speaks on Aug 9th!
 
Scott Gipson, CEO of Caxton Printing, will be the guest speaker for this week's August 8th's noon meeting at Kaley on the corner of S. 10th/Logan in Caldwell. This family business has been in Caldwell for many, many years and I believe that Scott is the 3rd generation of family running this business. He is always interesting and fun to listen to, so come hear about one of our community's most long term businesses and about the life of this prominent CEO. Scott is a neighbor and friend to many.
Upcoming Rodeo and Changes-Help Needed!
 
It's that time again! The Caldwell Night Rodeo is coming and our Rotary booth will be up and running as usual with some changes! The process will be streamlined due to a new streamlined menu to reduce some of the worker and preparation congestion that we have had in our booth in the past. This will make getting our products out much more efficient and take less workers in our booth at once.
 
This event comes once a year and is our biggest club fundraiser so if President Brian calls you, if you are able, please rise to the occasion and help. The Rodeo runs from Monday (slack night) August 14-Saturday, August 15th.
 
One big change is the way that we will enter the Rodeo as volunteers. We no longer enter at the concession gate to the right of the main gate. We are asked to enter at the main gate, but we will need a "Concession" ticket which we will want you to pick up if possible from Brian Baughman prior to your work date.
 
If you were unable to pick one up prior, let Brian Baughman know and we will make arrangements for someone to meet you at the gate to give you one.
 
If you are able to help and have not yet signed up, you can call Brian at (208) 631-1120 or email him at: brian@thehartwellcorp.com.
Rotary District Gov Terry Jones came to visit!
 
Rotary District Governor for 2017-18, Terry Jones of Emmett, came to visit our club's noon meeting on August 2nd. He calls himself, "Terry from the Dairy," thus the displayed Holstein cowbell and cow centerpiece display in front of him and club president Brian Baughman. Terry is a farmer and rancher in Emmett.
 
One point he made in his discussion with the board prior to the regular luncheon was that Rotary needs to change with the times and clubs must learn to adapt to the needs of the upcoming members rather than members adapting to the mold of our clubs these days in order to grow. Many other ideas were discussed during that meeting that will be considered regarding the types of memberships possible. He also discussed how a new "coat of paint" can spruce up an old project and infuse new energy into it.
 
It was a pleasure to meet him and introduce our District 5400 2017-18 Terry Jones to our club.
 
 
Paul Harris Fellow upgrades for Summers and McClain
 
During a recent Rotary noon meeting President Brian Baughman recognized recipient Leora Summers with a Paul Harris Fellow+2 and Wendy McClain with a Paul Harris Fellow+1, meaning that Leora has earned 3,000 recognition points and Wendy has earned 2,000 recognition points for contributions and points donated from others to the Rotary Foundation's Annual Funds.
 
Rotary Foundation's Annual Funds is Rotary's vehicle that funds our matching grants and is the working arm of our International club that funds worldwide projects centering around the health, education and livelihood of our world neighbors in need and projects in our own back yard.
 
Caldwell Rotary Club has been the recipient of matching funds for both our 2nd Grade Book program and our Dictionary program for 3rd graders. So we do benefit locally through our donations an through the donation of others to The Rotary Foundation.
 
This foundation does serve us in our own communities, so if you currently do not contribute, it would be greatly appreciated that you consider this as a member to help make our community and world a better place for all. After all, Rotary's model is "Service Above Self!"
