Rotary friends and friends of Rotary
 
When you serve to change lives, your actions today can help extend the lives of others.
 
Let’s take a moment to support our Rotarian Colleagues in Ukraine. They are Rotarians just like you & me. The first Rotary Clubs in the territory of nowadays Ukraine were registered before WWII: in Uzhgorod – in 1929; in Chernivtsi – in 1932; in Lviv – in 1935. When WWII unleashed RI made a decision to suspend Rotary Clubs activity in the occupied territories. The first post-war Rotary Club was established in Kyiv in 1991, and now there are 46 Rotary Clubs in Ukraine and approximately 850 Rotarians.
 
Next week our guest speaker will be club member Chris Carra, speaking on a very interesting topic- energy from the Ocean, sounds fascinating and a meeting not to be missed
 
Last week Rotarian Susie Cole delivered an enthusiastic presentation on RIMERN. It sounds like another successful program, the club is actively involved in this emergency relief network project, and if anyone is looking to volunteer please contact David Troon.
