News of 
Vast Import 
and 
Interest to Woodinville Rotarians

 

___________________________________________________________________________

Membership proposed -- The board of directors has issued an invitation for membership to Gaylen Sauve. Sponsor Gregg Riggs. This is the first of two Newsletter postings of this proposal as required by the club's membership policy. Gaylen is currently serving as chair of the Woodinville Chamber of Commerce and operates his own business, GSC Music and Sound. Members with questions or concerns should contact either membership chair Roger Stark of secretary Julian Denes.

Raffle and the Duty Roster -- There appears some confusion concerning the assignment of "raffle" as posted on the duty roster. The member assigned to the front desk job handles the sale and issuing of tickets for raffle prizes. When assigned to "raffle", that member is required to provide and bring a prize for that morning's meeting.

Seeking new harmony -- Art and Janet Haines are en route to their new home in New Harmony, Utah. Art joined Woodinville Rotary in 1989 and served as president in 2003-2004. His legacy will include fashioning the idea of more social opportunities through the Fifth Tuesday socials -- even when carried out on a fourth Tuesday as is the case this month.

Two fund-raising events of note -- Club members have brought to our attention the following two programs sponsored by organizations which have drawn support from our club presently or in the past:
  
March 19 - Northshore Performing Arts Center Foundation "Spring for the Arts" luncheon at the Hollywood Schoolhouse. Contact-Larry Leonardson. Larry is assembling two tables for the event. Featured speaker, retiring Cascadia Community College President Bill Christopher. Details


  
March 26 - Northlakes District, Boy Scouts, annual fund-raising breakfast at Bear Creek Country Club. Contact-Greg Riggs. Purpose is to raise operating funds for the district council.

International Budget Approved -- A budget of $15,000 for international service was approved by the Board of Directors at the February meeting to complete the charitable giving plan of $138,000 for 2010. The budget includes $5,000 for a matching grant application for a school for deaf children in Pakistan; $1500 for water filters in the Village Volunteers program in Kiminini, Kenya; $3000 for the day care center for disabled children in Positos de Luz, Mexico; $500 for a women's bread oven in Fiji; $3000 for the Willamette Medical Team's next medical mission to Peru; and $2000 for a computer project in cooperation with the Rotary Club of Jaltemba Bay, Mexico (former Woodinville Rotary charter member Rick Helberg as lead coordinator).
