2017 03_23 Meeting

 

 

 

The meeting was run by 2019-2020 president-nominee Sharron Snyder and she did a fine job.  She reported that there has just been one more case of polio detected, and asked that all members make a donation to Polio Plus of $26.50.  Why this amount? She reported that this was the amount that Arch C. Klumph proposed in 1917 to create an endowment "for the purpose of doing good in the world." This compares to about $265million donated to the Foundation in 2016 with about $250million used to support projects. You can go to the Rotary website to make a donation online. 

 

We awarded Student of the Month awards to LHS students Mackenzie Eutzey and Jessica McKeon. They were accompanied by LHS counselor Stevie Crisosto. Very amazing couple of gals, participating in athletics and other school activities as well as having awesome academic achievements.  

 

 

New member Paul Parks was the happy winner of the raffle making a donation back to the club.  Thank you Paul. 

 

 

Frima Stewart, a director of the Lincoln Hills Foundation and husband of Rotarian Joe Stewart, was our speaker. She described the foundation that was started soon after Sun City Lincoln Hills was developed in early 2002. Interesting that Rotarians Vic Freeman and Jerry Johnson were instrumental in its establishment and that Jerry is still active in the foundation activities.  The Mission of the Lincoln Hills Foundation is to promote and fund solutions and programs that will enhance the quality of life for senior residents of the Lincoln Community.  Find out more at their website.  

 

 

Remember, our meeting for March 30th will be a social gathering at Goathouse Brewery on Wise Road.  Let Claire know if you are coming and want a meal (253-3711).  Bring your spouse, significant other, friend or potential new member.
