Mine-Hunting Dolphins. Come on; that has to
the best program title this club has ever had. Believe it or
not, our own George Rebane will really talk
about explosive-finding sea mammals.
Next Monday (September 18), I will
be a driver in The Friendship 100. The Friendship
100 is like a miniature version of the Formula 100. But instead
of sleek racing machines, we'll be driving go-carts.
And like any good race car driver, the drivers have to get sponsors
in order to race. Unfortunately, the 49er Fun Park won’t
let us decorate their go-carts, so we'll be posting the logos
and names of our sponsors on our racing suits instead. Did I
mention that all of the proceeds go to The Friendship
Club?
I wasn't just challenged once... but twice! First,
Charlie Litton (President of the Nevada
County South Club) threw down the gauntlet by creating
a special race for the presidents of the five Area 4 Rotary
clubs. Of course, I felt the need to defend the honor of our
club by competing… even though I was put in a disadvantage
by having less than 2 weeks to raise at least $1,000!
But then on Monday, I was personally challenged
by Bob Breck (President of the Grass Valley
Club). In his meeting, he told his club that he’d
not only beat me in fundraising… but beat me driving backwards!
Needless to say, I need your help...
Although I will take donations of any amount, sponsorships
of $100 (or more!) also get a catered
dinner on Monday at The Friendship 100! Since higher amounts
are definitely appreciated (and are tax-deductible),
larger donations will receive bigger ad space. What do you say?
Will you donate more if I wear the racing suit
during today's meeting?
In Service Above Self...
President David "Kidd" Kenitzer

Kellermann Foundation Dinner: The Kellermann
Foundation Dinner this Sunday (September
17) needs volunteers from the Club to help setup, server
dinner, and breakdown. Altogether 25 volunteers are needed from
5pm until cleanup is completed. Between our five area Rotary clubs,
we are hoping to provide all 25 volunteers. Special thanks to
those who have already volunteered, including: Terry Boyer,
Ellen Davis, Gary Gustafson,
Kent Kadera, Eleanor Kenitzer,
Bonnie Murphey, Nicole Oros,
Jim Philips, Ed Townsend (plus
Mary Ann), and Eric Trygg. But it's not too late
to sign-up, please let President Kidd know if
you are willing to help.
New Member Proposed: Mike Colantuono has
been proposed as a new member by David Kenitzer.
If approved, Mike's classification will be Municpal Law.
Please contact Membership Chair Dave Denney or
President Kidd with any questions regarding this
candidate for membership.
Newsflash from the Pokerettes: Rotarians & Spouses
-- Mark your calendars!!! 4:00 PM, Sunday, October 8
at the Odd Fellows Lodge, The Pokerettes are
hosting a baby shower for David and Erica. More
details will follow. The boy baby Kenitzer is
registered at Target, Babies R Us, and will be registered locally
at Future Generations. A classic Winnie the Pooh theme has been
chosen for the baby’s room. So save the date and wait for
additional details. ~ The Pokerettes
Program Change: Mike Stewart apologizes
for not being able to present his program ("Life and Times
of a Rural Fire Chief") today. But he was called out on the
Ralston Fire (which has been burning for about
a week near Foresthill and causing all of the smoke). Don't worry
-- we'll reschedule his program for an upcoming meeting. Thanks
goes to George for stepping in at a moment's notice!
