Stories
Club news
CCH Committee meeting was held via Zoom last night and John led committee members in a discussion of many items dealing with CCH.  It's a great program and we are making plans for next year combining procedures from the past with our changes in operations this past year.  The project leaders are doing a terrific job planning for another successful event.  Remembering how it all started and now facing a $75,000 budget for the project is truly amazing.  What a wonderful project that exemplifies the ideals of Rotary.
 
Ortman's has volunteered to host a fund raising event for us probably some time in July.  If anyone has ideas for a fund raising activity to be held at the event, please let John know.  He is going to be meeting with the Ortmans to discuss the event.
This will probably replace our Christmas in July run through Woodstock.
 
Country Ramblings:  Warm weather is here and the outdoors is showing it's Spring Fashion.  The flowering trees and the early Spring  bulbs are a welcome site.  We even have sound effects.  This morning I went outside early and could plainly hear a Turkey gobbling, Sandhill Cranes booming, Geese honking and a variety of song birds singing.  None of these big birds were around here when I grew up.  And the real bonus this year is we have a pair of Eagles nesting in the Conservation Property across the road from our house.  We have a telescope set up aimed at the nest and we have been watching the parents raise the youngsters.  Neat!  I saw an article the other day stating that the population of nesting Eagles in the US was in the hundreds at one time and is now in the 10's of thousands.  Nice recovery once DDT was banned.
 
Get out and walk and sell tickets.  It will make Tim's toe feel better if we sell out the tickets.
The Little Raffle That Could
We are headed into the home stretch! Just 227 raffle tickets to go!
 
Thanks to everyone who has helped out so far. If you haven't had your chance (and you know who you are,) don't worry there are several opportunities left for you to sell in person. Maybe you could be the lucky person to sell (or buy) the 1,000th ticket.
 
Sign up at one of the remaining shifts below:
 
 
Every ticket sold is more food for the Blessings in a Backpack; it's more books and more coats and gloves and hats for the kids in our schools, funds for the different nonprofits that serve Woodstock. It's scholarships for RYLA and for high school seniors going to college. Every ticket sold is impact on our community - here in Woodstock and all over the world.
Coming Soon:  Rotary Grammy Awards
Did you get your answers into Luke?  He is fun & frolics in four weeks!
 
Pump up the volume!  What is the song you play to get moving, jacked up and going?  Who is your favorite musical artist/group?  Who was your favorite in high school/college?
What artist/group do you appreciate more now than you did when you were in high school/college?  What is your favorite lyric from a song?  Be aware that some songs and or lyrics will be redacted!
RAP songs will be cause for immediate disqualification.  Heck, 80% of the lyrics would have to be redacted anyway.  Disco songs will earn a bonus point and quite possibly certain Flogging Molly songs.  Songs with beer, dogs, pickup trucks, make up and break up lyrics earn major bonus points, especially if sung by an artist named Luke…  Certain songs by Pat Benatar, Looking Glass, Elton John, David Bowie and Aerosmith to name a few will be heavily reviewed for content appropriateness.  Remember:  I didn’t write the lyrics-you just misinterpreted them! Bahahaha!
Email me your answers.
