Last Week’s Meeting
Golf Tournament Canceled Joe Rezek, chairman of the Golf Tournament, recommended that the Golf Tournament be canceled this year due to limited number of sponsors, with no teams signed up to date. He felt, and the membership agreed, that trying to get the necessary number of sponsors and golfers in the wake of Hurricane Irma would be impossible. Joe was thanked for his many years of service in chairing this event, which has been our primary scholarship fundraiser.
Rotarians help Rotarian
Bob McDuffie puts in a Happy Dollar for the assistance of Rotarians in removing a tree from his home. Jeff Holtegel and his friend Jerome Heil came down from Ohio to help out those in need in SW Florida—Service Above Self!
Five Rotarians volunteered to remove a downed tree from the roof of Bob McDuffie’s home. Pictured below are Tom Setchel, Jeff Holtegel and Darryl Keys. Jeff uses a chain saw to remove part of the tree from Bob’s roof, while Tom, Darryl and Jeff helped get the trunk off
the house. Trees are heavy; ask Tom about his experience! Photos courtesy of Mark Payne
Mark Payne cuts off some limbs with a chair saw, dis-playing skills learned in West Virginia.
Jerome Heil piles some cut branches on the street for pickup.

Serving as District Nominating Committee Chairman is one of my most important tasks this year and it involves guiding the selection process for the Rotary District Governor Election for 2020-21. To that end, we are reaching out to each of you to consider this most prestigious position. Your Club President should be making an announcement to your members very soon in this regard, as the Nominee requires an endorsement from their Club. We want to make sure every Rotarian in our District is aware of this opportunity to serve. I can assure you it has been one of Pete and my greatest privileges to serve in this capacity and I would encourage you to apply, as we seek the best candidate for the 2020-2021 Rotary Year! Your Club President and Club Secretary will be required to execute the following document on your behalf, and submit said document to me no later than October 20, 2017 by 5pm. Governor Nominee Form This form shall be completed by the applicant and submitted for signatures by the Club President and Club Secretary, then returned to me no later than October 20th. The Nominating Committee will convene and interviews will be scheduled for Saturday, November 11th, in Fort Myers. Once an application has been received, a specific interview time will be scheduled and the applicant will be so advised by me, as District Nominating Committee Chair. The applicant may also submit a Resume along with their application. NO HAND-WRITTEN FORMS WILL BE ACCEPTED. If you wish to proceed, please contact PDG Cyndi for the Governor Nominee Form or speak with your Club President, as they have received a copy. Rotarians, should you have any questions in this regard, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at: 239-357-5758 (cell).
Today’s Speaker — Annette Snapp

We all know Harbor Rotary Member Darryl Keys is now District Membership Chair, as well as our Club Membership Chair. We should all know membership development is the responsibility of all Rotary members all year long.| Don’t miss out on the many valuable resources available for prospective and current members. Rotary International provides many tools that allow clubs to improve their members’ experiences so more prospective members join and more current members stay. RI has a video of President Ian Riseley speaking about the importance of membership flexibility. There is the Discover Rotary presentation and the prospective member brochure to introduce Rotary to prospects. At Rotary Brand Center, we can promote our unique experience, including events and projects; we can customize a club brochure. We can edit the content and upload our own pictures. If you haven’t, give it a try. We are all responsible for strong membership. It’s easy.
