Assistant District Governor Collyer Smith, Talked About Rotary Connect The World, On July 25th.
Posted by Eric Tindall on Jul 25, 2019
At the Rotary Club of Ann Arbor North Lunch Meeting on July 25, 2019, the speaker was our Assistant District Governor Collyer Smith talking about "Rotary Connects The World".
 
Before Collyer's talk, we had the Rotary Club of Ann Arbor's President Rosemarie Rowney, accept a $200.00 donation from Ann Arbor North for the Polio Luncheon on October 23rd. At this Polio Luncheon, where all Ann Arbor North Members are encouraged to attend because we are not having our normal lunch on Oct. 24th, District Governor Don Sparky Leonard and Polio Survivor  Ann Lee Hussey will be speaking. Proceeds from the lunch will go toward the Rotary Polio Plus program.
 
After lunch Collyer started his talk, about the theme for District Governor Sparky Leonard's year which is "Rotary Connects the World". Sparky, having great insight, realized by the time he got around to the other 52 Clubs in his District, to share the new year to them, he would be well into the next DG's year. So,,, he had all of the Assistant Governors share their stories for: "Rotary Connects the World." (There are 13 Assistant Governors that work with 4 clubs--(one AG has 5).
 
Assistant Governor Collyer Smith, shared how "Rotary Connects the World", first starts within our individual clubs. He surprised many with his "happenstance" entry into The Rotary World when he played tennis with the City Administrator. After beating the City Administrator resoundingly- Collyer thought his defeated tennis partner would rave on the fantastic tennis skills displayed. Instead, the City Administrator stared right into Collyer's eyes, pointed right at him, and stated: "You have way too much time on your hands- you are joining Rotary"!
 
Collyer then proceeded with delight in telling his Rotary journey, tutoring a challenging boy in math. In the process of trying to get the student to grade level math, this young boy did something even more powerful-he ended up changing Collyer's life. And Collyer's life would not have changed, nor would the young boy achieve 5th grade level math, if a series of connects did not occur:
 
  1. The City Administrator inviting (ok, demanding) Collyer to join Rotary.
  2. The City Administrator making time to connect and coordinate, with the Chair of Rotary Tutors committee, at the very next lunch meeting.
  3. The Chair of Rotary Tutors following up, and connecting, with the 5th grade counselor and teacher that very afternoon.
As Collyer stated:  "If the above 3 connects did not occur, or broke down at any given point- Collyer would not have had the life changing experience that so moved, and compelled him.
 
President Eric then opened up the floor for members to share their most impactful and proud experiences--and  more inspirational stories flourished. And that, is why we are in Rotary! 
 
By openly sharing our stories- potential members can't help but join, so that they too, can catch the fever!
 
 
Rotary Ann Arbor North President Eric Tindall, presents Rotary Ann Arbor President Rosemarie Rowney a donation for the Polio Luncheon on October 23, 2019, at Weber's.

Night Out With Rotarian's At Comerica Park Was July 19th.
Posted by Eric Tindall on Jul 21, 2019
On August 19, 2019, Rotary District 6380 hosted a night at Comerica Park. Game started at 7:10 PM with the home team Detroit Tiger's versus Toronto Blue Jay's.
 
Starting at 6:45 PM we had dinner with fellow Rotarian's, which included hot dogs, hamburgers, lay's potato chips, cole slaw, and beans. 
 
Shortly before the game started, Dave Rozama, a 1984 World Series Championship Pitcher, joined in with the fellowship, autographed his photo, and took photos with Rotary Member's.
 
Detroit Tiger's lost 12-1, but all Rotarian's had fun, and of course the Canadian Rotarian's enjoyed the game more.

Organization of Rotary Club Supplies.
Posted by Eric Tindall on Jul 06, 2019
 
For those Rotarian.s that said they were able to help, please come to Diane Sheffrey's on August 3rd at 10:00 AM to sort out supplies and documents.
 
We are in a need of a few Rotary Club of Ann Arbor North Members, for a couple of hours to organize our documents and supplies.
 
Over the years we have accumulated many documents, supplies and Rotary gifts that now that the Holiday Inn is remodeling, we need to organize and eliminate much of it.
 
If you are willing to spend a few hours in helping us go through the boxes we have, please contact President Eric and we will set up a time to organize it.
 
Thank You!

School Supplies For Green Baxter Court's Children.
Posted by Eric Tindall on Jul 13, 2019
We still need a lot of school supplies. All school supplies, absolutely needs to be turned in at the RCAAN lunch meeting this coming Thursday, August 15, 2019. This drive is for the whole school year, so the amount of supplies they need for the students is LARGE.
 
It is that time again to get school supplies for the children at Green Baxter Court. 
 
Frankie Moore said, "we have about 20-25 students expected to register for GBC programs this fall (elementary & teens). We could use help with any school supplies! but really any backpacks/supplies are welcome."
 
RCAAN members can start bringing the supplies for the children for July 18th lunch meeting. Please bring supplies to the lunch meetings by August 15th. Thank you in advance for you supplies for the children.
 
NEW THIS WEEK TO STORY: Do not worry about getting too much of one thing, we have 20-25 student's to buy for.
 
If you are concerned, everyone that are purchasing items, buy a variety of school supplies, that are on the list. The list is long.
 
Remember that this is a project with Community Action Network, nothing we give will be a waist. They will use every item we donate. 
 
Also if we do not have enough of an item, Community Action Network will be shopping for non-donated items, that is why they need our items by Mid-August. 
 
If you do not feel like shopping or just would like to help with the project, with a donation, money will be welcomed. Community Action Network will use it when they go shopping. Money can be given to Diane by August 15th.
 
Items we have enough of, so do not need to buy:
  • Composition Notebooks
