Rotary Greeting

During our morning club meeting today, I recorded everyone greeting Dave. Right after the meeting, I visited Dave Swidrak and his daughter Heidi to show everyone’s love for him. Dave and Heidi, we’re thinking of you, even if you can’t be at the meeting with us.

Gently Down the Stream

Steve and his wife from the Long Beach Rotary Club took us vicariously down the stream around the Great Loop by sharing their nautical adventure this morning. The presentation was so captivating that no one objected when it extended the meeting time by half an hour. Thank you.

Weeding Hearts

Weeding hearts are more environmentally friendly than bleeding hearts.

Tom possesses one of the most generous hearts I know. That’s why his Rotary friends converged at his yard for some weeding and trimming while he recovers from a recent surgery. Tom and his dog, Desi, entertained us while we beautified his garden. Scott even made an arthropod friend by the time we finished.

Jose’s Craft Talk

We learned more about Joe’s personal and professional life this morning during his craft talk. It’s always wonderful to make a new friend and get to know him. We heard that his dog, Hunter, literally walked into his life. We celebrated his wife’s recovery from cancer. We are so fortunate to have a great guy like Jose among us.

Over the Edge

Scott Young, son of the Rotarian Les Young, raised money for the Paralyzed Veterans of America by going Over the Edge at the Hilton in Long Beach. Dick Fulton coordinated the event, which raised more than $40,000 for these true American heroes. Rotarians (Randy, Nancy, Frank, Tom, Albert, Phyllis, Jose, and Arian) contributed to team Scott to achieve his fundraising goal and cheered him on as he rappelled down 141 feet with veterans, many of whom are in wheelchairs.
