This Friday, Mark Robinson presents Anne Rennie, the Community Collaborative Planner, who will provide an overview of the Hoarding Task Force and their efforts in Livingston County.
Please join us in welcoming OUR NEWEST MEMBER to the club: Liliana Fleming. Liliana's sponsor is Jim Watters, and her mentor is Dr. Nav Saini. She is a Teacher's Assistant at LESA, a Respite Care Worker, and a Youth Group Leader. Liliana is excited to be joining Rotary, after her involvement in Reaching Higher as a young person. Be sure to say hello to Liliana at the Greeter's Station in the coming weeks!
Pobuda Scholarship Fantasy Football Champ - 2018 is Dan Tomaszewski (Detroit Pride).
The trophy is in transit from it's 2018 home at Rotary Rob's to its 2019 home at the Tomaszewski's (a grueling trip of nearly 3 miles).
Plans are still being formed for the parade, expected to draw tens of people...if held in an already crowded place, like our weekly Rotary meeting.
Second Place went to Kyle Godfrey (Trouble with the Snap); Third Place to Rotary Rob Marvin (Golden Gurleys); Fourth Place and also winner of the most creative team name was Lauren Wagner (Lauren's Team).
Congratulations, Dan, and thank you to all who made another successful Pobuda League possible.
Trophy presentation will be made at a later date, when Dan and Rob are both at Rotary at the same time...Club Secretary says that the leap year is a good bet...LOL...but prize money will be distributed ASAP.
We raised $325 for the Don Pobuda Memorial Scholarship Fund this year...THANX!
Nelson Edwards is spearheading efforts to collect eyeglasses for World Medical Relief, and their trip to Kenya, East Africa. If you have eyeglasses you are not using, please bring them to Rotary and he will personally see to it that they are delivered.
AVERAGE GOLFERS NEEDED. The Cup was established in 1994, originally a competition between the Howell and the Brighton Rotary Clubs. In 2005, Livingston Sunrise Rotary began playing and in 2008 it was converted to a countywide Rotary Club competition. Since we currently hold the cup, it’s our responsibility to determine the time and venue for the 2018 competition.
This year‘s competition will be held at the Golf Club at Mt. Brighton THIS FRIDAY, September 21. We will have a shotgun start beginning at Noon. Cost is $40 per person for golf, cart and a warm-up bucket of balls. The winning club will receive a check from the proceeds for the project of their choice.
We play a two-person scramble with the five best scores from each club determines the winning score. We do include handicaps. Last year we retained the Cup by a single stroke over Brighton (341.5 to 342.5). SIGN UP at the meeting on Friday, or contact me via email for more information at jggilmore4@gmail.com--Jim Gilmore
Tuesdays in April, join your fellow Rotarians for lunch at Aubree's in Howell. We will gather at noon to talk about a variety of interesting topics!!
Come on out for some great food and time to get to know one another!
