The new permanent location is on. Our Past Pres. Hank provided a very exciting summary report on Christie's successful Tennis Day at Dominican University. The winner was no other that our very own Dr Earl who is truly a man of all seasons. He showed up to only help but then asked Christie if they were needing any more players as he had his tennis stuff with him!! :-)
Guests: Arlene Roberton, guest of Jim Costello; Mahza Gaiakani, guest of Farhad Taleghani; Akiko Marayama, guest of Roland Carr, and Mario Anziano who is the father of our speaker. Mario is a member of the Vancouver Rotary Club in Canada. He is originally from Italy and just turned 95 years old. He was amazing as once asked for a short speech, he got up and just went with the flow. He started as a career diplomat in Cleveland.
Past Pres Cap Alan said that Thursday October 4 (America’s Cup World Series/Fleet Week) is the day for the Club sailing fund raiser. The Club will charge $100 to $125 for each of the 40 places on board for a cruise to see America’s Cup preliminary racing. Proceeds will go to Call of the Sea.
We have four new prospective members. Our newest members: Liz Lauter and Chuck Orr both had a few thoughts to share. Peter David and Chuck Orr are already planning a major new Bike Event for 2013. Pres Herman and Chuck are also pursuing a Project for the US Vets as a tie into this major event.
Dr Mike and Matt T gave us a summary of where we stand on the Golf Tournament on Aug 17th at Stone Tree Golf Course right off route #37 about 4 miles from US 101. This has been traditionally our major fund raiser for all of our activities for the year. Please approach any businesses that are near you and ask for a $150 T-Sign donation.
Past Pres Rolando shared some incredible savings that our own initiated RotaCare program has created for the counties. In short, we save the county about $1.4 MM based on his detailed comparative study. Rolando is an Enrolled IRS Agent so he can not be wrong!
Please note on our new Website all the speakers thank to Emerson/Marlyn, are listed through September. Pres Herman will be sending our emails to all for each member to indicate their activity of choice to participate. This is your chance to initiate any special project that you have in mind as once the budgets are set, we do not like to make much changes for the year. As soon as the result of revenues from the Tennis and the Golf fund raisers are known, the committee chairs will be submitting their request to Pres Herman and the Board for 2012-2013 year.
