Marie Alvarenga brought her daughter Brandy Lonokapu today. Marie's been signing up golfers, she has 12 already for the April 19 Golf Tournament. Woohoo! Way to go Marie.
Make sure you come and bring some friends this Saturday, 1/26, 8am-Noon to the Cooper Center for the Weinberg Workday. Afterwards we'll be celebrating our club's birthday. Charlene Meyers will be serving up grilled salmon and many other tasty items.
Rosemary Stancampiano, Linda Jane Irwin, Jack Lockwood and myself met David Rizor at Volcano School of Arts and Sciences for vision screening on 1/23/08. It's really pretty easy (as long as you can read the letters from 20 feet away), and it's fun meeting the kids. Hope you will sign up for Mt. View Elementary when it gets scheduled, there will be a lot more kids!
Rotary Moment-from Don Hughes
Major gains have been made in the global fight against polio:
In the 1980s, 1,000 children were infected by the disease every day in 125 countries. Today, polio cases have declined by 99 percent, with fewer than two thousand cases reported in 2006.
Two billion children have been immunized, five million have been spared disability, and over 250,000 deaths from polio have been prevented. There were 820 cases in 2007, it remains only in Nigeria, India, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Vocational Speaker
Our guest speaker today was yours truly. I regret that I was unable to take notes of my speech. You'll just have to ask me for details in person if you missed it.
Happy Dollars
Many gave in honor of our friend, Doc McKinney, including Paul Ducasse, Marie Alvarenga and Helene Buntman. John Tyler appreciated the speaker (and graphic designers in general), Marie was also happy to have her daughter visiting with her. Rosemary Stancampiano was happy for friends and Erin's work for the Volcano Quilters. Lindsay Barclay gave a dollar out of sheer joy for Paul coming early to help set up.
