Carol Horner, District 5650 Governor, presented the program on August 11. She showed a short video of Rotary International President, Shekhar Mehta, who emphasized diversity, equity and inclusion. 
This week I’d like to look at the relationship between financial support and service. George’s wife wanted to see the movie “Pearl Harbor”. He could have just given her some money and sent her to the theatre, but instead decided that they should go together. George thought it was a good chick flick with some cool explosions for him. He was struck by how willing the characters were willing to die for each other. Before Pearl Harbor there was war in Europe. The U.S. sent the English a lot of money to buy bullets, but money was not enough. The English needed men to fight, so they recruited Americans to fly British planes in combat against the Germans. 
Rotarian Bob Simmering and his two daughters helped the folks at First Plymouth Church package the note cards that are for sale. First Plymouth Church is raising funds for the canal project by selling these note cards. You can see Chuck Erickson, who will be selling them at our meetings.
