“Do the right thing, do the thing right ….. and have FUN doing it!”
MEETING MINUTES October 12, 2006 at Inn Marin, Ignacio Submitted by Marie Borders The meeting was called to order by the President Larry Curtis. Pledge led by Don Wichman and the Invocation by Rev. Stan Warner gave the invocation with the word for the day from Daryl Weinroth. Visiting Rotarians Bill Kelly graciously announced and greeted the visiting Rotarians: George Gasperoni,
Novato Club, Retail Management Guests Not sure if there were any guests – sorry. Announcements President Larry thanked Dean Moser for running the meeting while he was away. He also thanked Dave Pitchford for his generous help with the Novato Theater Company move. The only other volunteers from our Club beside Dave were Melissa Rinck, President Larry. We were fortunate to have three Interacters who showed up to lend a hand. Bill Doughty reported that the Median Strip work party drew between 10-12 volunteers, and the crew left the Strip a lot better than they found it -- thanks to you unsung heroes!!! Billy Doughty announced the Second Annual Halloween Party hosted by the Novato Rotoract Club, a fundraiser which will include food, dancing, a silent auction and more for only $31pp. Stan Warner will always need a car, but is also happy to accept bicycles for people in need. Last call for those who haven't yet signed up for the Wine Tour on Saturday, October 21st, said Bob Carpenter -- there are 6-7 spaces left. Contact him immediately if interested in attending this popular annual Club event.
Matt Pavone proudly announced the theme of next year's Monte Carlo
Night -- "Monte Carlo Goes to Manhattan," which will feature fabulous NY
landmarks and points of interest. The auction prizes may include New
York-themed items, and sound very intriguing...Dean Moser is
credited with landing Brayton Purcell as the Major Sponsor, AND if that
weren't enough, he also arranged for Brayton Purcell to pull the gaming
license, permitting the event to continue as it has in past years, the
only exception being that there will be no slot machines. BIG UPS to
Dean and Matt!!! Fine Time Bruce Moeller celebrated his birthday with some of our finest Ignacio Rotarians at the Novato Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament. Roland Fuette batched tasks by attending a wedding with his bride Marylou to commemorate their 46th wedding anniversary...way to go, Roland! Marie Borders has not yet celebrated 16 years of wedded bliss to Jeff, nor has she feted Jeff's 40th birthday which was last month, but she promised to have something to report once the kids' soccer and football seasons have ended. Speaker/Program The speaker, our own Melissa Rinck, presented the program "The Profession of Dentistry" as part of the Club's Vocational Service fulfillment. The bottom line: No amount of new technologies, techniques or procedures will benefit you if you don't take care of your teeth and gums. Thanks to Melissa for a very interesting presentation. Raffle Not sure who won the raffle. ?¯?¯?¯?¯?¯?¯?¯?¯ Do the right thing
