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.

The Rotarian Magazine – Brian Dillon. A treasure gathers dust on your shelf or hits the recycle bin each month. Why not help us inform the public of what goes on with Rotary. We will have stickers at the club that you can take and put on your Rotarian magazine and take it to the waiting room at your place of business, or your favorite doctor’s office, or any where the public gathers.
Database Access – Susan Drake. You can now get the club directory and database information on your smartphone. Just put M.DaCdb.com into the browser on your phone then log in. Your user name is your email address and your password is your RI number which is on The Rotarian magazine unless you have changed it.

Stockton Rotary Centennial – the date is Feb 1, 2014. We wish to make this a celebratory series of events to share a century of service with the greater Stockton community. The committee has chosen five areas of focus. They are Projects, Events, Book, History and Publicity. If you wish to help in one or more of these areas please contact Susan Drake at secretary@stocktonrotary.org. We are in need of historical items for our club to include in publications and media announcements. We are asking past presidents and all our members to put on their thinking caps, search your offices and homes for historical tidbits. Please contact Frank Whitney at fwhitney@midcalbbb.org to help him in this task.
