HOT FLASH
Are you ready for a party?!? We are celebrating our 21st birthday on 9/3 and the club would like to invite our spouses/partners as guests of the meeting. How many will be bringing a guest? If you can't make the meeting this week, please send me your RSVP on Tuesday night so we will have a complete count Wednesday morning to plan the food.
August Board meeting is this Thursday, 8/28 7:00 am at RVR, all invited.
You can turn in Polio Plus money to Chuck Dorn on Wednesday. He'll also have bracelets if you need more.
Charlotte's work number is the same …384-5683. Sorry for the confusion.
Wear your pins . . . the first lapel pin in Rotary history was created in 1909 for the Rotary Club of New York (almost 100 years ago). It wasn't given to every member though - only the club's president wore the first pin. Now all Rotarians are encouraged to wear pins to show pride and membership. The pin has changed forms a few times, and today it depicts the official Rotary emblem. There are 1.2 million of us in the world wearing Rotary pins!
See you Wednesday . . .
Love, Charlotte

Rotary HISTORICAL (HYSTERICAL) MEMORIES
If you have a funny or memorable story about Carbondale Rotary, we would like to share it here. You can submit your story and if you would prefer, the story can be told without saying who recalled it.
The rest of the story….
Carbondale Rotary use to have an Annual Golf Tournament – Sponsored in kind by Jim Dahlman and Pacific Sheet Metal. We were the first non- profit and non member of Aspen Glen to hold a tournament there. We had some interesting good times around the 18 holes and especially at the 19th hole!!! Peggy Devilbiss and Dorie Hunt and Lynn Kirchner took home some trophies for various shots – can't remember if they were on the fairway or in the bar – ha ha. The Golf Tournament use to raise anywhere from $2,000 - $4,000 for us and it was a well respected and well attended event in the community before every other non-profit caught on and started to do one. Then the novelty wore off and there were too many golf tournaments to pick from, so we started doing "the garage sale" and that is a whole ‘nother story.
