Today's Program Youth Exhchange Student Carly Bowles

During my Junior year atEstes Park High School Ibegan to itch for a newadventure, a way to pushmyself, and give back toothers. After being involved inthe interact club, becoming aRotary Exchange studentseemed to be the perfect fit. Ihad three years of Spanishclasses in school which wherea great bases to start with inArgentina. I lived with two families andin two towns during myexchange. One in a towncalled Ituzaingó and the otherSan Antonio de Padua both ofthese places are located inGrand Buenos Aires justoutside of the capital, Buenos Aires. Two of my very favorite things were thethree week bus trip around northern Argentina and going to RYLA camp. This exchange has changed and enriched my life in ways I never imagined. Ibelieve if every young adult spent time abroad it would open so many doors ofpeace and understanding around the world.

Carly will be giving us a presentation of her adventure in Argentina this past year.Be sure to come this week to see the great impact Rotary is having on ourcommunity youth.

Estes Park's Shred-a-thon and Electronic RecycleDay is on Oct. 6th from 9am-1pm. Please thinkabout being involved with this great event asRotary will be sponsoring and working the shred

Thursday, following a special welcome as we entered by Greeter Dana Fritz. Madison Casey led our group invocation, and Dave Evans then led us in songand the Pledge of Allegance. Next in our usual meeting format was introductionof visitors and guests by Annie Slack. Pete then reminded us of future meetingsof importance, including the Fund Development Committee on August 21st, andthe Rotary Foundation Board on August 27th. The special events being planned and promoted by our members were announcednext, and included the following, plus the announcements of note by theirsponsors or chairpersons: A Special 5th Thursday Event is planned by Dana Fritz as a BYOB House Partyat the home of Jane and Jay Harroff, all are welcome. Don Widrig was verypleased to announce the success of the first time ever Colorado Peach Sale whichwill bring somewhere between $ 900 and a cool Grand to our future fund raisingefforts. Youth Exchange Chair Mark Richards is still seeking a Host Family forthe second period in the schedule of our new exchange student. Don Widrig (again ) is also working on a joint EP Rotary benefit program with the RockyMountain Opry group, set for September 18th.JR reported that the regular weekly raffle will now be switched from baseball (guess Wayne Andersen won it all last week ), and the new game will be footballwhich seems timely with the weather finally beginning to cool just a little bit! We tried once again to add a personalized touch with a rousing rendition to ourtraditional Welcome Song, and President Pete then called for any Happy Money.Mrs. Johanna Hocker, wife of our former member Jim Hocker, said she wasthrilled to come to our meeting and recall her good times with Rotary before Jim’spassing. Annie Slack informed us of her pleasure and satisfaction with thesuccessful Healing Waters Concert program. Kerry Hill was pleased to confirmthe addition of a new Internal Medicine MD at the Rocky Mountain MedicalCenter. Rod Ludlum was especially happy to have our good member Bill Lodgeat his table once again and Jim Godbolt was also very happy to have had visitingfamily from Norway, even though his small Good Sam apartment could havebeen just a bit larger for their visit! A brief passing mention was made regardingClark Lupton’s recent medical procedure, but it was a total success and meritsno further comment. The weekly program was an informative presentation by Mr. Jon Nicholas titled“The Buck Starts Here”, a review of his Business Services Coordination effortsin cooperation with our Estes Valley Library. Our program concluded at l:00 PMwith the Four Way Rotary Test.
