A Previous meeting enjoying the update from the board
Our speaker surprised us last Tuesday by not showing up! Pres Elect Harald did a fine job with Brenda McCullough's help to have several Board Members bring us up to speed on what is happening 2 1/2 months in to the Rotary Year.
Highlights include:- Community Service would like to concentrate up to 40% of their budget to a single local organization. Bring forward your ideas.
- International Committee wants to do similar deeds with a greater amount going to one organization.
-Membership has prepared for you to bring a prospective new member for a free lunch their first meeting, Any Time! We would like to see 10-12 new members join us this year. A special Fall and Spring Membership meeting will make it even more enticing. Who do you know that would benefit from being a Rotarian?
 
All positives going forward .
Great Club!
 
 
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.  Slowly, we are making a difference in the lives of the children in the Colima area.  Over the years, there have been many changes at Project Amigo but the need remains constant.  Please help us by encouraging your acquaintances and family to get involved.
Changing Lives in Mexico
 
Even though we are experiencing wonderful weather in Alberta as I write this, in about 8 weeks, some of us will be shoveling snow again.  Now is the perfect time to think about a winter get-away.  Have you considered returning to Project Amigo?  You do remember the warmth of the welcome, the genuine Mexican hospitality, the smiles of the children, and that sense of satisfaction knowing that you were making a difference in the life of a child.
    
Cindy and Coke, executive directors of Project Amigo, have graciously extended us a special invitation to return for another volunteer week.  Take advantage of this opportunity for make new friends, to rekindle old friendships, to check out all of changes or perhaps to meet the child you sponsor. 
The registration fee remains at $1,200.00 per person (shared rooms) or $1325.00 for a private room.  A deposit of $600.00 will secure your place. It is also possible to make monthly payments. Depending on the room arrangements, a maximum of 24 volunteers can be accommodated for each session.  Please encourage others to visit Project Amigo…have your friends, neighbors, or family join you. 
 
Nov 8-15: Literacy and the Environment
Dec 7-14:  Holiday Fiesta for Children:  This would be a great week for anyone thinking of bringing kids or grandkids.  What an awesome early Christmas present!!! This week is going to be very special, as it will be the 30th Fiesta Week
 
Jan 11-24:  English Tutoring- This is a new work week started in January 2014.  It was very popular.  Everyone loved the “one-on-one” with the high school and college students.  Sign up for only one week of the program if the two weeks is hard to schedule. The cost is $1,600.00 for the two weeks.
 
Mar 7-14: Literacy and the Environment
If you are unable to participate in a work week, please consider making a one-time donation or sponsor a child.  By sponsoring a child for $100.00 annually, you can give a child hope and forever change their future through education.

Free The Children’s mission is to create a world where all young people are free to achieve their fullest potential as agents of change.
