Jan 15 Club Bulletin
JANUARY 15th 2014
INVOCATION: Tom Loepp shared a wonderful reading from the book of Bill Monbeck today.
GUEST ANNOUNCER: Tom Loepp thought he was funny, however the club was a little disgruntled. Ticket Helpers: Tony Falcione & Carol Flask Visitors: Dennis Eberhart Last in: Linda Trevorrow. Happy Buck: Bob Oborn’s mother had surgery went well thank you for your prayers shes back to grumpy self. Rotary Anniversary: Bob Sweitzer 3 years (?) and Andrea Denton 11 years. NO birthdays today or Wedding Anniversaries. Rotary Fact: Because Tom is difficult he did it Jeopardy style... answer in the form of a question. It was about the first Rotoract meeting in 1968. Linda tried to win a few times with correct information, however the answer was not up to Tom’s standards. Twisting the truth, and our game so that he could win, therefore he kept the ice cream. He does have a talent, we cannot deny that. (Sarge did you get that back?) To top it off, he drew his own card from the bucket. Don Coughlin his dear friend pulled ace of spades.
PRESIDENT & ANNOUNCEMENTS: Dave Renninger: Food Bank - We are Struggling to get volunteers for the food bank.The Akron Canton Regaional Food Bank is located at 350 Opportunity Parkway in Akron. Basically we go there and sort food. Look for expiration dates, or opening boxes and sorting them into bins. We as a club are committed first Wednesday 5-7PM. Wear comfortable clothes, and shoes as you will be standing on concrete in a warehouse. Its a great opportunity to meet others, the employees are appreciative of what we do. It only takes usually from 5-6:30. If each of us volunteered 2x a year, we should be able to get 10 people once a month. Please sign up for one of the next 5 months on the clipboard.

Tom Leopp talked to us today about when do you need a lawyer. Talking about traffic stops, and what your rights are. Police are trained to collect evidence, and he was helping us understand the process and how things work. It was very informative and there were many questions. Quite interactive and we all know now that Tom’s cell phone is on at 2AM, so he’s always up for a butt dial. Happy sleeping Tom. :-)
