Josie Parker Director of the Ann Arbor District Libraries, talked about the Ann Arbor Libraries on October 20th.
She told us, "that the libraries in Ann Arbor are the same as when you went into them when you were a kid. The only difference is, that there is no card catalog."
Josie was excited, about the newly remodeled Westgate Library http://www.aadl.org/westgate. Inside the Library there is a Sweetwaters Cafe which allows the Library to open at 6:00 AM. The remodel expansion added 16,500 square feet to create a branch with 21,000 square feet for its users.
She is encouraged about the future about the District Library and wants you to attend any of their many events at the Library.

Michigan Theater house lights dim and suddenly you are not in your seat but instead at the controls of a B-17 Flying Fortress next to Army Air Force Lieutenant John Clark trying to get back across the English Channel…...And all four of your engines have quit. Below and off course, you see a grass runway cut into a heavy woods. It’s for fighters, and far too short for a massive, high-flying, long-range bomber heavy with armor plates and bristling with machine guns. With another injured B-17 right behind you.

Thanks to the many Rotarians who have committed countless hours to our Veterans initiatives - Job Fair and Service Above Self - Honoring Our Veterans. We only begin to understand how much we owe our veterans as we hear their stories. And learn that Service Above Self is quite possibly the biggest thing any of us can do with our lives.
The Service Above Self Honoring our Veterans and the Veterans Inisiative are working to build a Fisher House in Ann Arbor. Take a look at the following linkhttps://www.fisherhouse.org/ and help us build the House.
Fisher Houses are located at major military and VA medical centers nationwide, close to the medical center or hospital they serve. Fisher Houses have up to twenty-one suites, with private bedrooms and baths. Families share a common kitchen, laundry facilities, a warm dining room and an inviting living room. Fisher House Foundationensures that there is never a lodging fee. Since inception, the program has saved military and veterans’ families an estimated $320 million in out of pocket costs for lodging and transportation.
Michigan has zero Fisher Houses. Other states have five (5) or more. They are a necessary part of our support network for our veterans.
Michigan residents have been on the front line since the War of 1812. No state has done more to serve our country and ensure our national security than the men and women of Michigan.
Rotary Club of Ann Arbor North can be a big part on building a Fisher House in Ann Arbor. If you would like to help contactEric Tindall.
