12-10-2014 Sidney Crewe - Trek to Antarctica

Posted by Joy Collins 
 

23 Rotarians and 3 guests enjoyed Sydney Crewe's inspiring presentation about her adventures volunteering in Antarctica!

Sydney showed us wonderful photos of her southern hemisphere summer stint in Antarctica (Nov-Feb 2010).  She also first introduced us to the basic topography and political situation in Antarctica, where about 30 nations share the continent.  We enjoyed learning about Sydney's adventures and learning about the pioneering spirit of the scientists and support staff who live and work in Antarctica.

Special thanks to Sydney Crewe and to CCV Rotarian Don Willson who encouraged her, his son's sister-in-law, to come talk with us!

Parker's RCC - Rotary Community Corps - will be celebrating its 5th anniversary on January 20th (6pm) at Parker United Methodist.  There are just a few tickets left!  See CCV Rotary President Emily Strunk for more information.
