The Club's SLV HS Speech contest is coming up this month, the morning of February 25 in the multi-purpose room at the High School.  Aaron Brandt is again making this happen and he needs volunteers.  Timers & judges especially, please contact Aaron as soon as possible.  This event is really fun and inspiring.

 
The club is co-hosting the upcoming Boulder Creek Business Association Mixer next month March 11 at 6:00pm.  Our co-host, the SLV Museum, is kind enough to extend the use of the Museum's Grace Episcopal Gallery at 12547 Highway 9, Boulder Creek as the venue for the event.

 

January 15

The first meeting of the new year we had special speaker Bobby Roy from the 3D Entrepreneurs Club (3DE Club) in Santa Cruz.  Bobby Roy is the founder of the 3DE club, a non-profit initiative that teaches kids (ages 8-12) essential skills for the AI era through 3D modeling and printing, fostering entrepreneurship, problem-solving, and financial literacy via a "Learn-Earn-Invest" model, helping them design and sell products while building a foundation for future economic success. 

 

January 29

Donna Maurillo of the Santa Cruz Rotary Lunch Club gave the presentation tonight on security issues surrounding major public events.  She has a background in local government transportation policy and public security is a major factor in that.  She highlighted the Murrah Federal Office Building bombing in 1977 and the Boston Marathon bombing of 2013.  Two quite different scenarios but with drastic and horrible consequences.  Some of the upcoming public events that will need extra attention to security matters are the 2026 FIFA World Cup games in North America and the 2028 Olympics in Italy.
