SETUP

·        The fire Dept has the room set up most of the time and it requires that we take note of how the room is set up.

TAKE-DOWN

·        Remove trash from tables, clean all tables with spray wash and cloth.

·        Reassemble room with tables and chairs just as the fire dept left it before the meeting.

Please plan to arrive at 6:30 AM to help setup table and chairs and plan stay until 8:15 AM to help put everything away.  We appreciate any other "early birds" who may wish to join in the setup fun.

BE a Rotarian 24/7

Let the 4-way test guide you every minute of every day.

 

 
BE a Rotarian 24/7

THE FOUR WAY TEST of the things we think, say or do
1) Is it the TRUTH?
2) Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3) Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
4) Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?


Wear Your Rotary Pins…
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!

Help us receive money from City Market & King Soopers

ROTARY INTERNATIONAL & LOCAL NEWS

       ROTARY INTERNATIONAL & LOCAL  NEWS


             HELP US RAISE FUNDS WHILE SHOPPING


If you have a City Market or King Soopers Value Card and register
the number on the back of the card with us, you can help the
Carbondale Rotary Club fund our local and international projects.
Here's how it works, when you shop at City Market they scan your
card number and record the purchase amount and credit our club's
account. At the end of each quarter our club receives a payment
from City Market that's based on the amount \of our registered
Value Card members' purchases. Each quarter City Market
distributes $100,000 to 500 organizations. The more persons who
register their Value Cards with
Carbondale Rotary, the more money
our club will have to fund our worthwhile projects. We need a
minimum of 50 people to register their Value Cards and they don't
have to be members of our club. Value Card numbers look some-
thing like this: 3 39820 43201 1.


                               WE HAVE ABOUT 30 NOW AND
                  NEED A MINIMUM OF 50 PEOPLE TO SIGNUP.


                 PLEASE SEND Jay Leavitt leavitt@sopris.net  YOUR
                         
CITY MARKET VALUE CARD NUMBER                


Thank you, the Carbondale Rotary Club
