 Congratulations George Phillips

George was so inspired by the March 22 presentation about Rotary Foundation and Paul Harris Fellow recognition that he handed off a check in the amount of $1,000 to Rotary Foundation Director Max Zellweger and will be recognized as a Paul Harris Fellow at our induction dinner June 28 at Willows Lodge. George is one of at least five members we hope will be recognized that night as four other members are very close to having the 1,000 points ( 1 pt per dollar donated) which will qualify them as first time Paul Harris Fellows. Please contact Max about this if you feel you are one of the four or if you would like to know the status of your Rotary Foundation Sustaining Member Account and how close you are to becoming a Paul Harris Fellow.

Be sure to sign up for the Rotary Earth Day Celebration at Molbak's April 22. Reservations limited to 200 for this 4th annual event. The celebration will feature five wineries, cooking and gardening demonstrations, prizes and a great time to entertain prospective Rotarians. $25 per person with proceeds to Woodinville Rotary Charitable Foundation. Be sure your spouse or significant other knows about this family of Rotary event. 5 to 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 22, the date our country celebrates mother Earth and all of our bounty.

Good stuff happened at today’s (April 5) Rotary meeting. 

 

We learned that Miro has some time available to do things from mid May through June 21 when his parents arrive.

 

The Food Lifeline work party scheduled for April 16 has room for more volunteers.  As Joe mentioned, we have had in the past around 20 of us spending a great and meaningful morning together helping Food Lifeline package food to be distributed to hungry people in the area.  Definitely community service here of the best kind.  Let George Phillips or me know if you want to get on the volunteer list.

 

The practical information provided by Jay Fiske about how to make our charity event as effective as possible and as easy on us as possible was very important.  We should all take to heart Jay’s advice on how to make procurement of items an easy and pleasant task rather than something to dread.  Jay offered us some proven ways of reducing the stress in procuring items. It is going to be a great event this year as it has been in the past. Let’s go for a record number of attendees. We know it is going to be a fun evening.  Who ever went to be a lousy Oktoberfest?  Not me.


 

 

Our Community Service Partner
since 1990

Banner Bank has participated with Woodinville Rotary Club since 1990 in the development and support
of the many community and education projects which are and have been the focal point
of our club's annual October charity fund-raising event.

 






  Woodinville Rotary Club's
 Charitable Giving Focus

Rotarians of Woodinville believe that providing a pathway for Woodinville's youth to obtain an education represents our opportunity to live "Service Above Self".

The club provides direct funding to programs from grade  school through college...new Operation Warm coats for young children in need, brand new dictionaries for every third grader, summer reading camps at Kokanee and Woodmoor elementary schools, music and academic opportunities at the Secondary Academy for Success (SAS), a pilot project at Woodinville High School for peer-to-peer math tutoring, and renewable scholarships for Woodinville High School and SAS graduates where it will "make the difference" between affording and attending college.
