Youth Services chair Hillary Schuss gives us an update on last week's speech contest.
Club president Mark Leiser ponders questions and views the future at the one year anniversary of the Covid quarantine.
Beginning July 1, 2021, our club will have a new president. Here's a biography of Chesa Keane, incoming club president for 2021-2022.
What an exciting meeting we had with RCS on Tuesday October 13, 2020! David Zybert, Charter RCS member and long-time District RYE Committee member, arranged a special treat for us. Over the last 12 years, RCS has hosted 12 students from around the world. On Tuesday, five of them joined our Zoom meeting!
The District Governor's annual visit always includes the presentation of the Quiet Rotarian award.
Our September 22nd visit to Sierra Bay Aqua Golf brought a lot of hilarity. And oh, Jim, what were you thinking?!?
If you were around during the 60's, you may remember an ad campaign for sunglasses that asked "Who's that behind those Foster Grants?"
Past President Ken passed along a copy of a citation received by our club from Rotary International.
The Rotary Website’s call-to-action for Rotaract reads, “Join the global movement of young leaders who are developing innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges.” Reading this shines a beautiful light on the potential of our small communities in District 5190 as many Young Adults attempt to enter a new phase of their lives – whether university or the workforce – and are faced with such unprecedented situations.
During her recent visit to our club, District Governor Berta Pickett introduced a new program, “Step Up for Rotary.” The new program offers Rotarians a fun way to raise money for Rotary, while pursuing their passion for physical activity.
During Ken’s year as president, our club donated funds to purchase a bench for veterans and guests to use at the Northern Nevada State Veteran’s Home. The intent was to visit and tour the facility on May 5th and allow our club members to see the bench for themselves.
What is it that happens from one Tuesday to the next? What will we remember when we look back on the summer of 2020?
Rotary International President, Holger Knaack’s theme for 2021 is Rotary Opens Opportunities and asks, in part, that as Rotarians we create opportunities and improve the lives of those in need.
We are pulling together Club photos from the last 15 years and we need your input. Please email me any pictures you have of our meetings and events! If you can, please include names, dates and activities to help us organize them. :-)
For now, enjoy some of the pictures that we have in the “Gallery” on the Club’s homepage. Hover over the word “Gallery” and there is a drop-down menu with a few of the photo albums we have by year.
From its inception, our club has dedicated itself to “hands on” projects. We donated money when it was necessary, but we far preferred to donate our time and labor. As a result, we’ve had some extremely satisfying times making a difference where we could.
As stated on the Rotary.org website, “Rotary International President Holger Knack’s theme for 2020-21, is Rotary Opens Opportunities, to create opportunities that strengthen their leadership, help put service ideas into action, and improve lives of others in need.”
