Fellow Rotarians,

 

This newsletter is later than usual, because I was busy helping my wife to prepare my son’s birthday party. He is 17 years old today.

 

Our next meeting on June 1st will be Italy day with Consul General of Italy in New York Antonio Bandini as our speaker. Prior to being stationed in New York, he was Deputy Head of the Italian Delegation to the United Nations Commission of Human Rights in Geneva. You can read more about Consul General Bandini’s impressive background in the latest Bulletin on our website at www.nyrotary.org/bulletin2004/bulletin_06-01-2004.pdf (click on the link).

 

This week’s Reporter of the Week describes a very interesting Armed Forces Day with pictures. It does not say who wrote it, but thank you for a good report.

 

Nick Uresin has created an online survey to collect member feedback from the 1st Annual Rotary Club of New York Retreat on May 8th. You can find the survey on the Internet at http://www.surveyconsole.com/console/TakeSurvey?id=41824.

 

Our piano player Volker Detering, who’s Classification, is Event Marketing has sent the following message about an event that he is involved with:

 

We are promoting a high profile, free Health Conference on June 10, covering AIDS and other diseases, with an international focus. I think this is very interesting for many Rotarians.
