On Tuesday, August 16, our speaker is Dave Armstrong, 75th District State Assembly Representative and Barron Co Economic Development Corporation Executive Director. Dave will share information on Barron Co. economic development as well as some county demographics. He is hosted by Trudy Kroeger.
Last week Isabel Thurston shared information on working with inner city youth in LA. It was an interesting presentation that was fun and inspiring to listen to and learn about. Thank you, Clare Janty, for inviting her!
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
October 4th will be our membership informational meeting. The purpose of this meeting is to invite those interested in learning about Rotary. It is an opportunity to showcase what we are all about and increase our membership.
To help with recruitment, we are offering a provisional membership for 3 months (lower cost) so potential members can check us out before committing to a full membership. Please continue to reach out to the people Don Drost helped us to identify and any others you think might be interested.
It is also important that our own members attend our weekly meetings - summer is difficult with all the family activities - hopefully we will see more of you after Labor Day weekend!
Board meeting Monday, August 15th - 5:30 at Marsh Insurance office. (Thanks, Joe Erickson, for letting us crash your work pad!)
Rose Day 2022 is Oct. 27. Roses will be $20 per dozen, and you will need to deliver your own roses. We will coordinate within our club to help each other make deliveries, or you can have your buyer pick up their roses at Cedar Mall on Thursday, October 27. More info, posters, and collection envelopes to come!
Youth Safety Jim Stoll sent an email with a link for on-line training. Check it out if you think you may ever have the opportunity to work with youth - you will need this certification. The link to the training is:
