For Those Rotarians Who Missed Tuesday's (August 26,2014) Meeting

FOR THOSE ROTARIANS WHO MISSED THE MEETING ON TUESDAY AUGUST 26, 2014

Our upcoming Barn Dance took precedence in our meeting on Tuesday as rightly it should have with the Barn Dance just around the corner on Saturday, September 13, 2014 at Wandering Creek Ranch. Thank you to Carol Parish, Steve Sehnert and the remainder of the Barn Dance Committee Members for an entertaining and informative presentation on what the Barn Dance will look like as one of our chief fund-raisers, as we partner again with the Boys & Girls Club of Steamboat Springs. It was especially gratifying to hear that the Barn Dance Committee had already reached its fund-raising goal for the event! Kudos to the Barn Dance Committee and a big: “Thank you” to all our sponsors and donors, many of whom are also Rotarians. The Barn Dance Committee will continue to sell Raffle Tickets and Dinner Tickets for the event at next week’s meeting and via e-mail reservation.

Ron Thom handled our monthly Lift –Up Collection, which netted $66.40. Thank you, Ron.

Thank you to Winnie DelliQuadri for filling in as Secretary in Jackie’s absence. Much appreciated, Winnie.

Thank you to our Greeter, Dave Garner, who also introduced all our guests and visiting Rotarians.

Julie Taulman reminded us if you signed up for a Sailor Card from our Exchange Student, Sebo, please get your $20.00 to him so he can turn it in to the High School.

Finally, last but not least, thank you to The Grand Staff for feting us Rotarians to an out-door grilled lunch for Staff Appreciation Day. It was a great change of pace and a lot of fun. Much appreciated  to The Grand Staff for all you do for us.

Our next meeting is at The Grand on Tuesday, September 2, 2014 at Noon – Club Day – “Name that Rotarian.” It will be fun!
