The Wheel editor suggests that persons email their announcements to gtweedy@dgtinternetmarketing.com prior to publication of the weekly edition. This will make sure that we present your information the way you wish and not our sometimes mangled interpretation of your verbal presentation.
Robert Paoletti’s Blog Page – Robert, a member of our club, is on leave from the Stockton Police Department for a term of duty in Iraq. He will be training Iraqi police. Robert will be reporting on his activities. Please visit his page. You are encouraged to comment on his reports and thus keep in touch with him while he is absent from our club. We will alert you when Robert sends us new information.
NEXT WEEK’S MEETING – Changed location. We will meet at the Hilton, 2323 Grand Canal Blvd.
Stockton Rotary Centennial – the date is Feb 1, 2014. We would like to get started on planning for celebration, first meeting Nov 30 at 4pm at Dave Tygett s house, let Dave or Susan Drake know if you are interested in helping.
Holiday Party – Our annual party will be held Thursday, December 10, 5:30 PM at Magnolia Mansion, California & Parks Streets. $35 per person. Sign up sheets will be on our tables. Contact Renna Beinoris. renna.beinoris@gmail.com
Children’s Holiday Party – Wednesday December 16. Please let Terry Hull Jr know if you plan to bring any children to this event. tj@pmerepairs.com
PolioPlus Event – Rotary will be in the center court of the Weberstown Mall Jan. 8th-10th. We have three days to raise $5000 for PolioPlus. We will have brochures, pins, posters, maybe Motorcycle Bob and his bike and a slick video that will be on continuous play. The event will be staffed by Rotarians and Interactors and hopefully polio survivors to tell their stories. We are hoping to have short presentations on the challenges of polio and a question and answer time. We are aware that most people under a certain age are not aware that polio exists or that it was a real threat here in America not that many years ago. Contact Scott McElhinnie for more information and to volunteer to help. mcelhinnie@sbcglobal.net
Grocery Card Fundraiser Grocery rebate cards are available at the meetings. The Club will receive a rebate of 3% of purchases at SaveMart, Smart Foods, Food Max, and Lucky s. The card may also be used when purchasing pharmaceuticals. In the first six weeks we have raised $141.
District Conference 2010 – It is not too early to plan for next year’s conference which will be hosted by our DG Susan Drake and held at entrancing South Lake Tahoe. The club will pay for the first 20 early conference registrations We suggest you don’t miss out. Check out a video starring Kayaker Susan and Chef Dudley. Full details and the ability to sign up are on the district website.
