Welcome to another issue of our weekly bulletin! Spring has Sprung and this Rotarian has Spring Fever so this Quincy Rotary Bulletin is not only late, but short!
The Power of Rotary
A week ago, at The Area Foundation Dinner, we recognized those Rotarians who demonstrated the Power of Rotary through their contributions to The RotaryFoundation. However, two Paul Harris Fellows missed the event. So here is a shout out to Brenda and Andy. In addition the Quincy Rotary Club was recognized for its contribution of $15,000 (not $1500 as stated in last week's Bulletin - so sorry) during Darren's presidency and maybe some of Dwight's.
By giving to the Rotary Foundation, we change lives as the website says, "The Rotary Foundation transforms your gifts into projects that change lives both close to home and around the world. As the charitable arm of Rotary, we tap into a global network of Rotarians who invest their time, money, and expertise into our priorities, such as eradicating polio and promoting peace. Foundation grants empower Rotarians to approach challenges such as poverty, illiteracy, and malnutrition with sustainable solutions that leave a lasting impact.

Last week's speaker
Natalie Ray Brown is a Quincy native who returned home to raise her family. Natalie is a physical therapist for Plumas District Hospital and heads the Swing Bed Program for the hospital.
The Swing Bed Program enables patients to recover from a surgery, illness or injury in a hospital setting – near family and friends, until they reach an optimal level of strength and wellness to return home. Plumas District Hospital helps patients achieve this goal through hospital-based skilled nursing care and rehabilitation services.
With Swing Bed, you have access to a comprehensive set of quality services, depending on your needs, including:
Need to heal and regain strength through physical, occupational therapies to aid in a safe return home or to other living arrangements, after an acute medical or surgical stay
Orthopedic rehabilitation after any surgery
IV treatments: including PICC lines and Pora-caths or ports for IV antibiotics.
Wound Care
Coordination of care and services before your return home
The Swing Bed Program seems ideally suited to Quincy.
