Nebraska National Guard Museum
Today, Lincoln East Rotary Club learned about the National Guard Museum located in Seward, NE.  Retired Lt. Col. Jerry Meyer said that the original was located near the Bob Devaney Sports Complex and when the State Fair left Lincoln in 2009 for Grand Island, the University of Nebraska purchased that property and therefore the building was a part of it.  This building was the State Arsenal during the 1913/1915.  This same building was the museum from 1979 through 2014.

Meeting Locations --

We will be visiting three different locations in the next few weeks.  Please let us know your preference so we can make an informed final decision regarding our new meeting location.  We will be visiting each of these  locations to see how we like the set up and if it meets our needs.  They are as follows:

November 17: The Garage, 5551 South 48th Street (there is a conflict with Hy-Vee on this date)  

December 1:  Hy-Vee Store - 1601 North 84th Street

Thank you for your input on these locations.  Looking forward to having you visit us and hearing some excellent programs.

 
 
 
President Message
The longer I live the more I realize the ease with which we can slip into extremes and the harm that can do to our lives.  I see it all around me and sometimes, to my own embarrassment, I find it in myself. A major focus as I grow older must be, “Keep yourself in balance.”

Please keep our Rotarians locally and around the world in our prayers and thoughts as many of them may have struggles that we don't know about.
 
Even with the vaccine, we continue to keep all of our teachers, school officials, and students, EMT's and first responders, hospital doctors and nurses, supermarket clerks, restaurant workers laid off or furloughed and waiting for unemployment, all those who are currently unemployed, human service organizations who still are open to serve those poor/homeless/hungry, funeral home workers, churches, airline employees, hotel employees, gas station and convenience store workers.  
 
If you know of any of our members you would like for us to mention who are ill or need prayer, please let Greg know and we will put it in the SPOKE.
