The Rotary Club of
Fellow Rotarians,
The speaker at our next
Susanne Sebert has written the Reporter of the Week about our last
meeting in the Bulletin. Thank you Susanne for a most informative report! Susanne
has been a member since 1999 and her classification is International Education
Exchange. She is the Director of External Relations for AFS Intercultural
Programs, Inc.
At our last meeting, the
Division Chairs gave an overview of their committee goals for the year. Even
though I am in
Our Rotary Experience is
not only limited to the weekly Rotary meetings or to working with Rotary
volunteer projects. Taking our Rotary Experience to the Internet makes it more
accessible and enjoyable. For example, I am currently on the other side of the
I was not present at our
last meeting, so in my capacity as the Chairman of the Internet Communications
Division, I am taking the opportunity here to state our Internet Communications
Division Goals 2003-2004:
It is our intention to
update and revise these goals continuously for improvements. We will move
forward step-by-step and at the same time be flexible and open to new ideas. If
you have an interesting idea, please contact me. I can be reached via e-mail at
Ingemanson@cs.com.
You can also read about the Internet Communications Goals on our website at www.nyrotary.org/divisions/internet_communications_goals.htm.
Don Everett, who is the Chairman of the Vocational Service
Division, also missed last week’s meeting, but he sent me his goals:
Vocational Service Division Goals
2003-2004

You can also read Don’s Vocational Service Division Goals on our
website at
www.nyrotary.org/divisions/vocational_service_goals.htm.
I have invited the other Division Chairs to send me their Division
Goals and as soon as I receive them, I will post them on our website.
President Greg has been
very active this week and contributed two new articles for the President’s Page
on our website. The first one is “Road
Trip with PDG Paul Caruso” on the Internet at www.nyrotary.org/president_greg/road_trip.htm.
It is a great piece about camaraderie at our Rotary Club.
The second story from Greg is called “My Rotary Pin and the
Stranger at
It was a warm spring
morning, a Monday. I was walking on
I will not reveal more, but
you can read the whole story on our website at www.nyrotary.org/president_greg/rotary_pin.htm.
The Bulletin announces the
birthdays for Larry Parks on August 3rd, Sylvan “Barney” Barnet on
August 5th, Saul Anton on August 8th, Arthur “Art”
Draznin on August 13th and Siegfried “Sigi” Brunner on August 17th. Happy Birthday to all of you!
I have mentioned before that Bill
De Long was presented with the highest and most prestigious award that Rotary
International can present to Rotarians. Only a handful of members worldwide receive
this award. There is a photo of Bill in the Bulletin when he received the award
from Past District Governor Bob Benson. You can read more about Bill on the
Internet at www.nyrotary.org/bill/index.htm.
Another of
our members Dr. Sonny Lee was recently awarded his
second Medal of Freedom from National Republican Senatorial Committee on June
2003 and he was awarded the 2003 Businessman of the Year award from National
Republican Congressional Committee. You clearly don’t need to ask Sonny what
political party he would vote for. You can read more about Sonny at www.nyrotary.org/meet_our_members/sonny_lee/sonny_lee.html.
Our
legendary Rotary Club keeps on growing with an additional two members. The
Board of Directors has approved Kadir Karabay and Christ’l Dullaert as new
members. Welcome to our club!
I received the following two messages from Bishop Jean Marie R. Kozik, who is the founder of Fraternite
Notre Dame and a member of our Rotary Club:

condolences for the return to God of Joe Mandarino.

friendship and prayer.

message from the Bishop:
