Last Week's Meeting
Last week our speaker was Scott Boots, the Director of  Health Cares Exchange Initiative,  Inc., a nonprofit organization where professionals teach resiliency skills-building to persons at risk for stress and burnout.  Thank you Scott for this informative talk about how we can identify stress and burnout and what skills we can use.
 
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
Host Families Needed for Friendship Exchange June 10 -14

A Rotary Friendship Exchange team of 6 couples from Rotary District 3060 (west-central India) will visit our area June 1-14, 2018, just prior to the Rotary International Convention in Toronto. We are collaborating with Northern Illinois Rotary districts 6420 and 6450 for this Friendship Exchange.  The team is hosted by 6440 from June 10 until their departure June 14. We need 6 host families for this period. The main responsibility is providing housing, meals when they are at home (breakfast, dinner if not with the group) and usually making sure they get to and from the designated pick up spot for the activities for each day. 
Anyone interested in being a host family should contact PDG Rick Rivkin, 847-909-9072, Gov.Rick@Rotary6440.org
 
Thanks,
 
Rick
