Our Program on September 18th was a report on the recent fundraiser golf event. It was given by Michelle Seets.                               
She gave a very detailed report on the event, having broken down the day into the various profit centers. She commented on some of the portions of the day where the monetary return was low for the amount of effort necessary. One fact she reported was that almost all of the money raised was given by Rotarians.   The committee will meet and evaluate all of the data, and perhaps next year’s event will be “streamlined” a bit.       
                                     
Paul Harris Award:  President Nick Wegleitner presented Scott Zerby with his five sapphire Paul Harris Fellow Award.  Paul Harris Fellow (PHF) recognition is given in appreciation to anyone who contributes, outright or cumulatively - or in whose name is contributed - a gift of US$1,000 or more to the Annual Programs Fund, PolioPlus, or the Humanitarian Grants program. The recognition consists of a certificate, pin, and an optional medallion.  Paul Harris Fellow recognition can only be presented to individuals.  A Certificate of Appreciation is given to a business or organization.                                                                                                                          
 
Next Week:  “Amputate It” - Chris Egert a news anchor for KSTP-TV - will talk about overcoming adversity by removing what's causing you pain. He made the agonizing decision in December of 2017 to have his left foot amputated after years of surgeries due to athletic injuries. His message will resonate with anyone suffering from physical or emotional pain.
