What happened last week?
 
50/50 - Visiting Rotarian May was called to find the Queen.  Sadly she missed.  Come tomorrow to find out how much has rolled over? Is it $100? $150? $200???
 
We had our club assembly led by President Ruth Ann Rocchio.  She recognized club members for all of their hard work and volunteerism for Project Healing Waters.  Thank you to Leslie Underhill, Rob Howell and Ginny and Charlie Kirkwood.
    
 
We also had a friendly competition to see who knows the most about Rotary.  Senior Rotarians and newer Rotarians were paired up for a trivia contest.  1st place went to Doug Smith and Kirby Upright and 2nd place went to Dennis Jeter and Frank Herting.  Congrats gentleman!
  
 
This and that:  
October is End Polio Month.  President Ruth Ann is looking for all club members to donate an additional $26.50 before October 31st.  
 
Rotary Clean Up on Saturday October 22nd @ 8am.

Gary Roberts is HOME!!!!!  He says:

Hi Friends,

Just a note to let you know that I am out off Pleasant Valley Manor. I am now home. I want to thank everyone for their prayers, cards, visits, etc. If you want, you can give me a call at home or at the office.  --- Gary

 
Please continue to pray for Heather Butz wife of Rotarian Ted Butz who was in a terrible horseback riding accident.  After several up and down weeks, her health is stabilizing and she is making slow progress at Good Shepherd Rehab in Allentown.  She actually stood up for a few seconds!!  Yay Heather!  We wish you well!
