Marcia Made It

Today our Assistant Governor, Wilma Shackleton, attended our meeting.  Wilma had nice things to say about how our club is ran and how much fun we all have.  We had three interactors in attendance.  John Dryer, from the Plainfield club, was a guest as well.  Jade Gruner had a guest too, Nate Mishler.

Marcia was our host and speaker today.  She was informed that she was the host about 10 minutes before she was on.  She pulled out all the stops and nailed it.  If you don't know, Marcia has a lot to say about everything.  This is because she is part of almost everything.  Her roll at the Chamber of Commerce and the Town Counsel make her in the know.  She shared information about the events of the night before at the Chamber of Commerce Community Award Banquet.  Rotarians were plentiful.  Bob Pearcy was nominated for Senior Citizen of the Year and Jennifer McPeak won the Business Leader of the Year Award.  When Marcia changed hats, she told us about things that the town are doing with sidewalks and building that is happening on the eastside of town.

Next week will be our Christmas Luncheon.  It will be held at Westbridge Church on Mackey Road.  Then on the 27th we will be having our Board Election.  There is still room for Rotarians that might want to join us in Naples for the Ziggy Dicks BBQ Festival.


Special Thanks to NSSB for pulling off a great food drive.  There will be some happy families that will be needing this food.  Please consider continuing to support the local food pantry   They are in need of food all year long.

This weekend is a very special weekend.  This weekend the "Cromissioner" and I go head to head again for the second time in Fantasy Football.  For the keeping score at home, I was the only Male to put the hurt on Seth.  I think this calls for a game day by game day report.  As I write this before the Thursday game we each have one player playing tonight.  I am projected to get 147 points and Seth 146 points.  It will be close, but I am sure that when the chips are down, his ego will be totaled just like his Van.  If you would like his point of view, you will have to ask him since he stopped writing.

Welcome to NSSB!!!!

It was good to see so many people remember that we were meeting at North Salem State Bank this month.  One could tell who went to Mayberry first.  Either way we were glad to have some more space in the community room at NSSB.

Our new President Greg, kicked off the meeting with recognition for Bob Pearcy for all of this work over the years for the Danville Rotary Club.  Thank you again Bob.

             




Past President Rex had some human maniquins showing off the Golf shirts that we would like to get on order for Rotarians.  They are $35 each (this includes shipping) and are very stylish.  We will be taking orders for one more week next week.  There will be a sign up sheet going around next week for you to place your order.  There are Golf style shirts for guys or the open collar style for women. For more information, follow this link. Greg is wearing one of the shirts here in this picture.  

Greg shared some of the goals for the club during the program portion of the meeting.  These goals include:  4 new members for the year, more than 7 Rotarians attending the District Conference on Oct. 26th, Bring Vocation back into Rotary, and working with the other 3 Rotary Clubs in the county.

Announcements:  
The Board of directors approved at the board meeting to cover the cost for registration and one nights stay at the the Union Club at Purdue University for any Rotarians wishing to attend the District Conference.  They also approved to cover the cost of registration for any club members who would like to attend RLI (Rotary Leadership Institute) on AUG. 25th.

There are still spots available for the bus trip to Conner Prairie to see Don McLean's American Pie.  This is a great trip and a great way to get to know some of your fellow Rotarians a little bit better.  You can express your interest or any questions to Terry Kessinger.  Just click on his name to send him an e-mail.

LHC Golf outing on July 10th.

Please sign up for a date to be the program chair.  The list will be going around this week and then weeks will be assigned to each Rotarian.

Have Fun!!!! I know I will.  See you in two weeks.  Greg
