President Elect Training 
Posted by Rick Zayaitz
Steve Gould
Every year the transition of new presidents start with PETS Rotary training.  The President Elect Training Seminar is a two day intensive session that takes place in King of Prussia PA under the guidance of the incoming District Governor Elect Herb Klotz.  Our incoming President for the 2019-20 Rotary year Steve Gould spent two wonderful days with 230 other President's elect in Eastern Pennsylvania.  Steve had time to learn what other organizations the size of ours and larger do to maintain the integrity of being Rotarians.

Newsletter Survey Results
Posted by Mike Waddell
Thanks to the 47 Rotarians who completed the recent survey about the Trumpet newsletter.  The data and the comments are very interesting and more consistent than I expected.  The graphs of the first three questions and responses follow on another page for your review.   I'll work through the comments in questions 4 and 5 for presentation at another time.

Collection for Turning Point in January and February
Posted by Nicole Steirer
 
      Fellow Rotarians,
     Community Service decided at a previous meeting to do a collection drive in the month of January and February in support of Turning Point of the Lehigh Valley,  where victims of abuse and their children find refuge.  We are going to be collecting new twin blankets and comforters to support their great cause.  We will collect through the end of February and deliver in the beginning of March.  If you have any further questions, please speak to Nicole Steirer.  Thank you again for your continued support. It is truly inspiring when we support great organizations with our donations.
