Today is National Buffalo Soldiers Day which honors the contributions of some of the earliest African American troops in the United States military during the Civil War.
This week's speaker is Pranial Shankar, President at SPADE Security Services, who will give a vocational talk on Security in the Age of AI. Looking forward to learning how to protect ourselves from the Matrix or Skynet. All kidding aside, this will be a great topic and a critical one as we embark on AI being a part of many aspects of our lives.
Northern California PET Imaging
Last week's speaker was Brad Schmidt, the CEO of Northern California PET Imaging Center. He shared details about NCPIC's mission: to provide exceptional patient care through precise, innovative, and accessible molecular imaging. They are modernizing cancer and dementia care using the power of PET/CT. It was eye-opening to see the capabilities they are able to offer compared to the costs of other screening services.
Shop with a Cop
Reminder: We’re excited to kick off our Rotary year with a meaningful and heartwarming service project: Shop with a Cop, which will take place in less than two weeks on Saturday, August 9th, from 7:00 to 10:00 a.m.
In partnership with the Rocklin Police Activities League, this annual event provides underprivileged children with the opportunity to shop for school supplies and other necessities alongside our local police officers. The program helps foster positive relationships between police and youth, creating an uplifting environment where trust and community spirit thrive.
The morning begins with breakfast at the Rocklin Police Department, followed by a short drive to Target in Rocklin, where each child will be paired with an officer — and in some cases, one of us — to shop together.
We encourage all members to join us for this impactful event. It’s a wonderful way to connect with our community and demonstrate the spirit of Rotary in action.
Please let us know if you’re able to attend by contacting Ken Broadway.
