Board proposes ByLaws change: Members
have been notified of plans to vote at the June 21 meeting on an
amendment to the club bylaws that would permit the addition of a
seventh, appointed director to serve on the club Board of
Directors. The director position would be New Generations Director
which would encompass the fifth avenue of Rotary service to
include youth exchange, Interact, Rotaract and the Rotary Youth
Leadership Assembly. If approved by two-thirds of members
attending the June 21 meeting, incoming president John Hughes will
ask Alex Hopkins to accept appointment to that position. The Board
would then consist of six elected officers and seven appointed
directors. |

Erv's Presidential Recap
Frequently Posted by Our Leader
Our illustrious leader was taking family time in a warmly,
sunny climate and allowed Vice President Joe Truglio to carry on
at the June 14 meeting. Lake Forest Park Rotarian Craig Sternagel
shared his experience in South Sudan and his work with the Lost
Boys of Sudan.
Rotary seeks families
to host French student How would you like a quick, fun way to learn the French language? Woodinville Rotary Club has the answer. The club is looking for families in the Woodinville community, with students attending Woodinville High School, who would consider hosting a young woman from France. The club has hosted foreign high-school-age students the past 23 years. The host family is asked to take the student into their home for a three-to four-month period during the next academic school year commencing in September. “It’s a wonderful experience for our Woodinville host students and families to not only pick up on their French,” said Rotary youth exchange chair Larry Duffield, “but a way to delve into a new culture and make lifelong, lasting friendships.” The next Rotary exchange student will arrive in August for a yearlong experience, taking senior-level classes at Woodinville High School. Rotarians are active in the program, sharing their time, providing experiences, trips and events with Rotary families, Duffield added. Anyone interested in more details or in becoming a host family should contact Duffield at (206) 412-6643 or via email at l.Duffield@comcast.net.
