Rotary Newsletter Information for August 30, 2010
President's Message:
Dear Fellow Rotarians:
District 7550 Ambassadorial Scholar Is Off to Holland!
The Rotary Club of Charleston-sponsored District 7550 Ambassadorial Scholar is off to Holland. She has created a blog for us to follow her adventures throughout her year overseas. The blog is entitled, “Paula Goes to Holland: Rotary Scholar Adventures” and can be found by clicking on this link: http://paulagoestoholland.blogspot.com/2010/08/pre-departure-for-utrecht-holland.html. I think that you’ll enjoy her first post (“Pre-departure for Utrecht, Holland”) and her acknowledgement of thanks to our Club for her sponsorship. If you scroll to the bottom of the page, you’ll find my comments on behalf of our club.
2010 Community Service Theme & Logo Unveiled
The official unveiling of our 2010 Community Service theme of “Fight For Life” was provided by our Community Service Chair, Diane Strong-Treister, at the August 23rd meeting. A new Club milestone was laid with the inclusion of our first community service logo around a theme. The logo can now be found on our web site on the 2010 Local Giving page. Diane put her creative personnel to work on the logo and did an excellent job with it (while not spending any club funds, either)! If you like the logo, let Diane know about it.
A reminder for those that are below attendance requirements.
September is a “short” month in that, with the observance of Labor Day, we hold only 3 meetings: the 13th, the 20th, and the 27th. So, this leaves only 4 opportunities between now and the end of the quarter to get some meetings in and ensure your attendance requirements are met.
See you Monday!
Yours in Rotary Service,
Tom Kittredge
