Last Week's Speaker (7/15/2020)
Chief Jeff Film presented the program on July 15, 2020 on Police Reform.  He very generously shared his power point presentation with the club!  You can read it either in an e-mail that you received from Linda Trevorrow or attached to the minutes of last week's meeting.  It was an excellent presentation and gave us another reason to be proud of a fellow Rotarian.  Chief Film made it perfectly clear that the employees of the Stow Police Department are continually trying to make themselves better.  The department looks forward to some of the new procedures that will be introduced by the State of Ohio involving training, recruitment and complaints.  Stow already implements some of the standards (old to Stow; new to other departments), such as the use of body cameras.  It is a very active department with 23,434 calls handled in 2019 and 9601 calls answered so far in 2020. 
 
Jeff:  We thank you and your department for your bravery, courage, and dedication to Stow residents and businesses, including visitors to the City of Stow.  Your 'Service Above Self' is well recognized!
 
Ron Taggart, who was in charge of our joke this morning closed the meeting with comments he has found on match.com.  One couldn't help but smile and groan!
 
This week Dick Hall will share a joke with all of us!
WE NEED YOU!
 
Bob Oborn needs three volunteers with hopefully one of them being computer savvy, (hint, hint) to help him plan our Virtual Reverse Raffle. Please email Bob at boborn@kentelastomer.com if you are interested! Thank you!
 
Be sure to submit your choices for donations from our Breakfast Giving Fund for July.  We will choose our worthy recipients at next week's meeting.  Email choices to ltrevorrow@bti-cpas.com.

President Elect:  Our club still needs a president-elect for 2020/2021.  Linda will be happy to discuss the position with any inspired members.  Don't be shy!  It is your time to shine!   
 
Tabs for Ronald McDonald House - Find yourself drinking more than usual? Save the pop and beer can tabs for Ronald McDonald House and drop them off at Don Coughlin's home.  
 
Adopt A Spot - A wonderful opportunity to be with another Rotarian during this pandemic.  Two people can keep socially distanced and weed for 20 minutes.  A new sign has been erected announcing our club's Adopt-A-Spot.  We need to give it special attention this year because of all of the people looking at the senior signs at the same corner as the doughboy.  Everyone admires pretty flower beds.  Thank you in advance.

Breakfasts for July total $65 (five Wednesdays). 
 
Dues are due now!  Members can pay annually (July) or semi-annually (July and January).  Send your check to Treasurer, Annette Oborn at the address in the above paragraph.  (You may also remit payment to our PO Box.)
