ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!

Exciting for many of us. Maybe not all of us. Hopefully you will be able to watch your favorite team at the location of YOUR choice and:

1. Not at the Bosses house. The invitation seemed more like a command performance, and the entire time you can’t help but feel like you’re in a performance review. Can you swear, or even just relax and put your feet up on the coffee table? Who knows. Best to simply play things safe as you slowly drink his weird beer, smile politely at his jokes, and pray the game doesn’t go into overtime.

2. Not in Section 499, Row ZZZ. Welcome to miniature football. You’re so high up that the jerseys are unreadable, and you can’t tell if someone just fumbled or got the first down. The announcer is no help either, because sound doesn’t travel well in the thin atmosphere. Oh well—John should be back soon with some $99 nachos, as long as he gives the sherpa the correct section number.

3. Not at a friend's house who has not upgraded their TV in a while. It was nice of them to invite you over to watch the game, but the bulky square Zenith box lets you know you are in for a long, blurry afternoon, 1978 style. Now, while not a techy person, this is the 21st century. Is it too much to ask for equipment that is a bit above what they have in the waiting room of the Good Year Auto Tech shop...

ANYWAY...HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND AND GO BEARS!!!

ICYMI

From our District Governor Bill Kmiecik:

One of the goals I share with this year’s President Jennifer Jones is to establish a presence around Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. As Mary, Thor, Kevin, and I consider how and where to begin the process toward that presence, we struggle with the diverse starting point from which many of our clubs are beginning. With that in mind, I wanted to make some suggestions as to where your club could start if you have not started yet.

Conversation – consider having a club meeting, assembly or gathering to allow members, guests, and invitees to ask questions about what diversity, equity and inclusion could mean to and for your club. Conversation has the power to break down bias and allow us to connect with people.
Be An Ally - Show all the people in your community that your club supports them.
Create a Sense of Belonging – Welcome new people in your community with a card, gift, etc. Engage with your neighbors, coworkers and peers and stay connected. Be kind and understanding. Remember what it means to be a Rotarian.
Reconsider your stereotypes – Don’t assume older adults are bad at technology and younger adults are good at technology. Don’t make racial, gender specific, or ethnic jokes. We need to work to ensure that everyone is valued equally.
Consider your actions – Sometimes we feel uncomfortable sitting next to and talking to certain types of people. For example, people with disabilities often find people staring at them or looking away from them. People from racial or religious groups often find people avoiding them. If it’s appropriate, engage people in your conversation and encourage others to engage others in an open, inclusive manner. Talk enthusiastically about Rotary. Maybe others will become interested and join Rotary.
Who Is Missing - Consider who is missing in your clubs. Are all social, economic, ethic, and racial groups with a presence in your community represented in your club? If not, why not? The answer may not be to just ask them to join. The answer may be making them feel welcome first. Be inclusive!

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion can and will have a positive impact on our membership. Let’s be leaders in this area!

Have a great week!
