ROT – ARY THAT SPELLS ROTARY. Some of you may know the song but Rotary is much more than the song or the name. Service Above Self and the 4 Way Test should always be on top of mind and I have seen a lot of that during these unusual times.

If you don’t know by now, we had our first Rotary meeting last Thursday virtually via Zoom. I think it was a success as we had about 50 people signed in during the lunch hour. Great job from everyone that made this possible. Thanks for being the program Brian Elliot.

We will have one more Zoom meeting this week and then be able to meet in person at the MAC on June 18th. Judging by everyone’s reaction last Thursday, I think everyone is looking to get together again. We will be limited to 83 people (25% of capacity) with spacing but that should be no problem, so plan to attend. Let’s try to get good attendance that day. In the meantime, tune in on June 4th.

PLEASE CONTINUE TO WORK AT BEING HEALTHY DURING THESE TRYING TIMES

Please be assured that your Board of Directors for our club is taking measures and making decisions that will make keeping everyone’s health the top priority. Always remember as we come out of this all of our meetings and activities will be optional and each individual should make decisions that are best for YOU.

We are all dealing with an unprecedented situation with COVID-19. Hopefully we will get through this in short order and be able to get back to our “normal” lives again. When we get through this, hopefully we will realize how important our FREEDOM is and we can work harder on treating each other kindly every day.

UPDATE – President Bob continues to get a little, and I stress little, better every day. He called me about a week ago and he sounded great. In home help almost every day and the loving assistance from his wife Teddy.

MAKES ME PROUD TO BE A PART OF SUCH AN OUTSTANDING GROUP – THE ROTARY CLUB OF ST. LOUIS

  • Our Throwback Thursdays have been an overwhelming success. Much thanks to Doug, Mike, Joan and everyone else that have made sure they are published timely. Since we will be meeting live soon and we’ve almost gone through the list we are considering whether to run them again. Anyone interested in seeing them again?
  • A quote from International President Mark Daniel Maloney – “As COVID-19 reached around the globe, we found ourselves in a world transformed. We have been forced to connect in ways we could never have imagined, testing our ability to adapt.”

Keep connected with Rotary by reading one article a week from the Rotarian Magazine.

  • Here is a quote from the always whimsical BOB HOPE that will probably put a smile on your face.

ON TURNING 70 – “I still chase women, but only downhill.”

ON TURNING 80 – “That’s the time of your life when even your birthday suit needs pressing.”

ON TURNING 90 – “You know you are getting old when the candles cost more than the cake.”

ON TURNING 100 – ” I don’t feel old. In fact, I don’t feel anything until noon. Then it’s time for my nap.”

“Call a Rotarian” – President Bob kicked off this program on April 7th. Let’s see if we can keep this going in support of Bob. I think this is a good gesture and will help keep us connected. And you will feel good just to make a “personal” connection. I know I have and if you do also, you’ll be amazed at the results.

Finally, if you have questions, concerns, or ideas regarding Club 11 please let me know
