October Rotary Theme: Celebrate Vocational Service!
An Introduction to Vocational Service!
 
The concept of vocational service calls on 
Rotarians to “encourage and foster”:
•     High ethical standards in business and professions 
•     The recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations 
•     The dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society
As a Rotarian, how can you put these ideals into action?
 
 
 
Awesome Opportunity! 
Have you ever watched someone experience something for the first time?  As a Rotarian you can feel the same emotion by sharing your time with our exchange student, Kacper.  This is Kacpers first time to America and his goal is to learn new things and compare experiences to those he has from Poland.  Do you like to hike?  Go fishing? Have a home in the mountains?  Or near the beach? Or in another city?  Do you make a meal that your family loves?  Or have a favorite restaurant that makes a dish you enjoy?  Please share these things with Kacper.  His passion is basketball so anything related to playing, watching or learning about basketball would be on his A list.  New experiences are not far behind.  Volunteer for a family or new adventure (for Kacper) outing.   Volunteer for 2nd semester hosting 
 
Contacts for our exchange student, Kacper Nacwasinski:

Rotary Badge # - Did you know that your Rotary name badge has a number on the back of it?  This # corresponds to a # in the case that holds the badges to make it easier for you to find your badge each week.  A few changes have been made in recent weeks but most of you kept the # you've had since becoming a member.
