Motorcycle Poker Run
The service projects keep rolling in..yay! Next up is the Motorcycle Poker Run to benefit veterans through the Tails of Valor organization. We’ve had speakers from Tails of Valor and it is truly humbling to hear the stories of veterans who have given so much and how the dogs through Tails of Valor keep them going through very difficult times.
Please support Mark Erle and his team in this wonderful event…If you're still looking to sign up to participate and/or sponsor and/or donate, go to the our website! It's easy!
Flushed – How the Plumber Saved Cavillation
Okay, this is an odd one, but, bear with me there is a Rotary connection. Our daughter got this book at an estate sale and thought that it might be interesting to me [that in and of itself raises some concerns!]. I just finished it and it was much more interesting than I initially thought [don’t judge a book by the cover?] and it is a history of cavillation’s efforts to manage the you know what in our lives. It is humorous, fact filled, nicely researched and full of historical facts about how much, but, certainly not all of the civilized world has adequate waste management which brings me to the Rotary connection. Did you know that Water and Sanitation is one of the 7 Rotary areas of focus? Here’s a fact that boggles my mind…..Around 60 percent of the world's population — 4.5 billion people — either have no toilet at home or one that doesn't safely manage human waste.
Let’s think about joining a Rotary Action Group to help those who desperately need our help.
I’ll bring the book to this week’s meeting if anyone would like to borrow it.
