♦ PRESIDENT DICK called Immediate Past President CHRISTA KECK to the podium to receive a star presented to our club at the District Meeting last Saturday. This star honors the club for achieving its goal of $100 per member for Every Rotarian Every Year last year.

♦ GREG KAPP announced that the Rotary Salvation Army Red Kettle campaign has officially begun.

The sign up chart is available for you to sign up on in the back of the room.

Our date to ring the bells is December 4th. This year, we have 9 sites, with four two-hour shifts each. We like to have two people per site per shift. You may sign up for multiple shifts if you are available!

The key to Rotary having success this year is that each and every time slot be filled, so not one minute of our time is spent with a kettle sitting at a service desk with red aprons hanging on them and the bells silent.

I encourage you to seek help from your family, (spouse, grandchildren, children, friends, and others interested in helping). This is a great opportunity to share and encourage volunteerism in our community.

The Salvation Army derives most of it's funding from their Red Kettle drive. It funds all the great things they do in our community and throughout the country. Please find it in your heart to help this worthy cause supported by Rotary by signing up for a time slot, lor two, to ring the bell.

♦ The Rotary Foundation is extending is offer to give points for contributions made on line. This is a good way to receive your Paul Harris Fellow recognition.

♦ At a future date, District Governor SALIM NAJJAR will share the pictures he took while accompanying the team of doctors and nurses from Riley Children's Hospital who performed heart surgeries in Uganda. The Ugandan hospital staff now has more knowledge on how to repair hearts.

♦ JOHN BARRETT announced that $33 worth of raffle tickets were sold today. The winning number belonged to JAYNE FEATHERS! Although the Ace of Spades eluded her, she received a free lunch today.

♦ April 29 & 30, 2011 - District Conference in Carmel, IN. The registration fee will be $99, which includes conference, meals and a Charlie Daniels concert at the Palladium in Carmel. Don't miss the fun!
