Morning Star First Thursday
Last meeting was our February First Thursday event at the Artisan Wine & Cheese Cellar. We changed locations within the venue, occupying a larger lounge area with much more inviting seating arrangements. This has been perceived as a definite enhancement to our fellowship. There were 16 Rotarians in attendance including a special guest Rotarian from the Nazareth Rotary Club, Mollie Santee.
 
A highlight of the evening was the induction of Karen Achey as our newest Morning Star Rotarian. First thing Karen did was to knock husband Wayne off the top of the Morning Star Club Roster. Sorry Wayne, your first place is no more, but the Club has another great new Rotarian. Karen has been involved in many of our community projects in the past. Welcome Karen – we know you will Make A Difference!
 
The theme for this coming Thursday’s program is Getting to Know Our Newest Members!  We will have the pleasure of having classification talks from Ron Spier and Sarabel Conn. As Ron always claims to not be a morning person, please plan to be there to provide our support to both of these new members.
 
Remember to watch the weather forecast – that time of the year!
 
See you Thursday.
OUTREACH FOOD PROJECT SAVE THE DATE!!!
SAVE THE DATE SATURDAY MARCH 10 -  OUTREACH FOOD PROJECT
 
Please save the date for our Second Outreach Food Project. 
 
In March of 2017, all 5 Area 2 Rotary Clubs came together in a collective effort at Moravian College to package 20,000 meals for the food insecure people of our communities.
 
For this year we have raised the bar - we have successfully achieved a matching District Grant for $5,000 allowing us a total of $10,000. We will be able to provide 40,000 meals to help in our communities.
Each Rotary Club receives a proportionate share of meals which they then determine how the meals are distributed throughout their club communities.
 
Save the date because we will need many hands - both Rotary and family, friends, colleagues, all ages welcome, to accomplish this project.
 
This is a truly HANDS-ON PROJECT we always hear Rotarians asking for. The 5 Area 2 Clubs include Bethlehem Downtown, Bethlehem Morning Star, Easton, Nazareth and Saucon/Center Valley.
 
More information will be forthcoming including how you can be a part of this Make A Difference Project to help our communities.
 
Thank you.

As many of our members already know, each year our club sponsors four high school juniors to participate in the four day leadership development program which is our district's Camp Neidig event.  Rotary District 7430 welcomes you to Camp Neidig, celebrating its 69th year of inspiring tomorrow's leaders in 2018! Preparations are under way for Camp Neidig 2018. Before starting this year's recruitment process in our Bethlehem area high schools, we would like to extend this sponsorship opportunity to interested sons and daughters of our club members.
 
Camp Neidig is a well-established youth development program dating back to 1950, and annually serves approximately 150 students from 80 high schools in our southeastern Pennsylvania region of district 7430.  The program begins on Friday, June 15, and concludes on Monday, June 18.
