July 4 − Annual Fourth of July race. Proceeds from
the race go to Family Days and other
charitable causes. Day of race volunteers are still needed. Please consider
helping with one of the club’s most visible community events of the year. You
can’t buy better advertising than that. Barbara Struthers will be handing out
brochures, stamps and labels at the picnic meeting today for volunteers to take
home, assemble and mail. Goodie bags will also be assembled at Parkway Bank,
date and time to be determined. If you are a sponsor and have items to be
included in the goodie bag, please have them ready by June 26. See Tom Healy
for more details about how you can help out with the race.

Thousands
of Russians have
access to better health care thanks to a program supported by Rotary
International that works to introduce emerging leaders from the former Soviet Union to American political and civic life. The
Open World Leadership Organization was created in 1999 by the U.S. Congress to
enhance cooperation between the United States
and the countries of Eurasia and the Baltic States.
Rotarians and Rotary clubs, who provide all the logistical ground support for
the trips while the federal government pays the bill, have hosted more than
3,000 visiting Russian professionals since the program began. These visits have
included doctors who have taken their new knowledge of America’s health care system back to Russia
to help improve health care their. In recognition of this support, Rotary
International received a 2008 Open World National Grantee of Merit award during
a ceremony in Washington D.C. in April.
District
6440 is sponsoring another working trip to Ak’Tenamit and a new school being developed at
Castillo de San Felipe in Rio Dulce, both in Guatemala. The trip will be from
February 28 to March 9, 2009.
The cost is expected to be between $1,500 and $1,650. This is a wonderful
way to exchange the weather in Chicago
for 10 days in the tropics! If anyone didn't see the Guatemala pictures from this year, Barbara Struthers says she’ll be glad to bring a
disk to the meeting with the photos, so you can look at your leisure.
