The Rotary Club of
New York
Fellow Rotarians,
The speaker
at our next meeting on April 1st will be Richard Hunter, who is Vice
President and Director of Research at Gartner’s Research Organization.
He has written a number of books. You can read about Richard Hunter in the latest Bulletin on our
website at www.nyrotary.org/bulletin/bulletin_04-01-2003a.pdf
(click on the link).
Our Rotarian John German wrote a very detailed account of our last
meeting in Reporter of the Week in the Bulletin about the speaker at our last
meeting. Good work John!
The Bulletin informs us about the upcoming Rotary Jazz Cocktail
Party at the Cornell Club on April 28th from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm.
This even is organized by David Dingle and President Silvio Amori. David Dingle
almost never misses a meeting at our legendary Rotary Club. He always plays the
piano when we sing our New York Rotary Welcome Song for visiting Rotarians.
You can also read in the Bulletin about Werner Kobelt’s birthday
on April 18th. Happy birthday Werner! He was born in Japan to Swiss
parents and came to America in the 1940’s. Werner’s father was a member of the
Rotary Club of Shanghai in the 1930’s. Werner himself has been a member of the
Rotary Club of New York since 1959, which is 44 years. He was the Chairman of
the New York Rotary Foundation for many years. He was also the Chairman of the
Rotary District 7230 Group Study Exchange Committee for many years (the
position that I currently have). You can see pictures of Werner on our website
at www.nyrotary.org/wtc_disaster/wtc_disaster_page.htm.
Werner, who is a low-key soft-spoken person, may not like me to tell you all
these impressive things about him. Any way, I am not worried, because I will be
out-of-town for the next 2 weeks. See you again on the 15th, Werner!
Don’t forget to reserve your table for our next
meeting. You can reserve via e-mail to our office at ny.rotary@verizon.net, or call Andreas or Ana at

fax number is 212-633-1954. Princeton Club’s culinary staff will serve us Veal.
Rotary is about having fun
and do good things!
