SAVE THE DATES AND SPEAKERS
Posted by Carol Hannigan on Feb 09, 2017
Our January 31st meeting had many announcements. The District management team is looking for Sgt. at Arms for the District Assembly and District Conference. If anyone is interested please let President Leslie know. President elect Melissa Lindell gave us the date for the Ski Day at Mt. Rose ski resort, March 31st. Those who don't want to ski but would like to participate in the BBQ let Melissa know. Our Fireside Chat at Joe Musser's house is Feb. 14th. We are having a Taco Bar for food so if you haven't signed up for the event let Larie know by Friday. Past President, Rick Lierman is looking for mentors for the Bridges Out of Poverty program. Elijah Thomas is taking orders for Rotary shirts, you will be receiving emails from him. Larie Trippet gave us a update on the health of Dennis McCormac. March 25th is the target date to install the new benches at Marvin Piccolo School, this will be headed by Ralph Koss.
Our Percational speaker was Rhoda Thalman. Rhoda was a member of the Interact Club in Maui. She loved theater and singing while in High School and attended the New York Academy. She was an insurance agent for GIECO Insurance for four years and has settled into Reno as a realtor. I think we have a candidate for the Rotary has Talent show.
Our speaker for the evening was Zach Gregovich, owner of Black Swan Dynamics. Zach spoke to us on how to protect ourselves. He gave us great detail on what makes us a victim for harm and theft from in his words "the bad guys". If you would like more information please let Claire know for contact information.
Well it looks like Larie Trippet drew the white marble and might have said maybe next time.
Well this looks like next time to me. Still no red marble. I do think he has a little grin for getting to try two weeks in a row.
Speaker for the evening was Ron Bliss, Insurance Agent for the Affordable Insurance Exchange for the State of Nevada. We still have it but not sure what will happen if it is repealed. Ron gave us many examples of what could happen. We had many guests brought by Rhoda, Ricardo, Joe, and Shelley. The membership committee will be in contact to invite them to attend again. I do believe a couple are coming to our Fireside Chat. Way to go members.
