District Governor Presentation
Oct. 26, 2017
Will also have student of the month from Thunderridge HS Abbas Rajabi, an American by choice, grew up in Hamadan, Iran in a large family. His passion for education brought him to the United States where he pursued a degree in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas in Arlington. After working at several large companies, Abbas decided that his entrepreneurial spirit was too strong to deny. He began several small businesses in Texas, South Carolina and then Colorado while also building a family. Most recently, he is the founder and president of Mohegan Capital, a private real estate investment fund specializing in value-add and income producing industrial real estate.
Abbas is married to Sami Rajabi who he met in Iran while in high school. Their first big adventure together was when Sami joined Abbas in the United States over 44 years ago. She is involved in their businesses, and uses her financial acumen and passion to help ensure a successful family business.
Sami and Abbas are proud of their four very accomplished children; a journalist and mother, a lawyer and volunteer firefighter, a physician at Harvard, and a post-doctoral fellow at U of Penn Annenberg School. All of the Rajabi's children are also Paul Harris Fellows. They have two grandchildren who bring them great joy. Aside from time with family, Abbas and Sami love spending what time they may have dreaming about traveling, reading, boating, watching films, grilling on the back deck and hosting their friends for fun, food, and fellowship!

Now in 2017, we may be closer than ever to constant surveillance of our lives, but Big Brother is a set of corporations, not the government. I will talk a bit about the data that is collected, how it is used, and what we can do about it in today’s day and age."

Post Polio - What's it Like?
Dec. 14, 2017
email: francister@earthlink.net Original Invite (8/16): Terry: I understand you have spoken to other Rotary Clubs regarding Post Polio. Given how close we are to eradicating polio, this topic might be very appropriate at this time. We meet at noon on Thursdays at the Lone Tree Golf and Hotel.
We have a relatively busy speaker schedule over the coming months. The following dates are available over the coming months; 12/14/17, 1/11/18, and 2/8/18. Please let me know your interest, your chosen date, a short bio, and a 'catchey' title for your presentation.
His Response:
Any of these dates would work. Included a draft of the presentation that I have given. It is focused on Post Polio problems rather than the progress that we have made in Rotary on prevention of Polio. If this is off topic in terms of your expectation. No Problem.
