TODAY'S SPEAKER
This Meeting's Speaker: George Waitts
Crown Roll Leaf was incorporated in 1972 and originally produced the metallic coating used in the hot stamping process. Its products were used to create a shiny, embossed effect on greeting cards, book covers and packaging, such as labels and folders.
By 1984, founder Robert Waitts saw an opportunity to manufacture materials for holograms and diffractive images. By investing in the equipment and consulting with holographers around the world, Waitts began to develop processes to produce rainbow metallics that reflect light like a prism.
Oswen and his mother Wendy attended our meeting. He is our Gift of Life sponsoree from Honduras. Oswen is on the mend with help from Dr. Grau and the folks at Valley Hospital. We think he will be staying in American for another 2 to 3 weeks as he navigates PT and OT.
Special thanks to Karen Fischer who has hosted Oswen and her mother from the beginning up to post surgery and Rotarian John Koch for offering his Gift of LIfe room for the family to stay as Karen welcomes a new grandson into her family!
The Paterson Rotary Cookbooks are here! Pick one or more up for you and for gifts in time for cooking, baking, and gift giving for Christmas and the Holidays! The books are $15.00 each and feature 291 recipes! They are at PDG John Susani’s office and ready for pick up.
Paterson Rotary Club has saved almost 40 children in Club's history through the Gift of Life Program, starting in December 1986. Our first one was Kin Young Jin. Kin was the first of over three dozen hosted by Karen !!
