Our August 6th Meetings
 
 
At our Lunch meeting, members learned about the District 5180 Passport Club from Joann Tanner (Passport Club) and Dwight Chapman (Point West Rotary).  The Passport Club is an eClub formed last spring.  There are no specific meetings to attend.  Instead, each member must commit to "Save a Life," a combination of meeting attendance, service and contributions.   These members are available to help with our events. See Passport Website.
 
 
At our Sunset Meeting, Clark led a discussion of Rotary's second area of focus, disease prevention and treatment. Following the meeting we all made contributions to Polio Plus. Art came to the meeting with his End Polio Now tee shirt.  For a $5 contribution, members could have their picture taken with him to have the $5 donated to Polio Plus.  What a deal since the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will match this 2 x 1, resulting in $105 total for Polio Plus and eradication of this terrible disease in the world.

The Rotary Club of Lincoln Sunset meeting was set up to accommodate those members and potential members who have difficulty attending our Thursday Lunch meetings.  We meet the 1st and 3rd Thursdays at 5:30-6:30.  Service and friendship is stressed as compared to meeting attendance.  If you are not a member, contact a Rotarian or come to one of our Lunch or Sunset meetings to find out what Rotary can do for you.
