Tuesday Sept 27 - Davis and Bott Building

Rotary today was held at the new home
of Davis and Bott, Certified Public Accountants,L.C

Following a Chef's Salad, rolls and cake,
provided by the hospital caterers,
we were provided with a guided tour
of the new facility
Including a peek into Rennie Bott's
and Bruce Vellinga's new digs.

We even had a local Kiwanian,
Roger Lowe, helping with the tour.
It's good to see he is given some
limited responsibility, in spite of his
questionable service club affiliations.... ;))



Tuesday, Sept 20 - GOLF OUTING

There were a number of Rotarians
that took the opportunity to participate
in our annual Rotary Golf Outing

that disturbed the pond with a direct hit,
but here's the aftermath....

2nd Place Team with 3 Under Par

Congratulations to each of our winners
And a big thanks to Rotarians for selling tickets
and the community for supporting our fundraiser!

Our speakers today were
five of our six RYLA participants.
Most clubs send one or two students
to RYLA each year.
We have so many amazing youth
we were able to send six to RYLA this year.

Each of them shared their appreciation
for the opportunity to participate
and talked of the amazing experience it was.
Hopefully each of them will get involved
in the Interact Club and
share their experiences with others.

Next week, October 20
is the Golf Outing at Eagle Mountain

Two weeks will be a tour of the new
Davis & Bott building on west Forest.
You won't want to miss either event!

RYLA Participants 2011


The 2011 Ryla participants headed off
early Wednesday morning for a weekend
of leadership training, fellowship, and
an all around great experience!

Good luck to each of you!
We look forward to hearing about
your experiences when you return!

Tuesday Sept 6

We heard from Dr Tom Lee,
Dean of the USU Brigham City Regional Campus
and he shared with us a presentation
about the long term plans
USU has for the recently purchased land in the Southeast
part of Brigham City. (The old Indian School property)


He provided a number of artist renderings
of the proposed layout
including a closeup of the proposed
new Academic Building.
They're hoping to name the extension of Fishburn Drive
"Aggie Boulevard"


The proposed Acedemic Building
will hold office and classroom space.
Approximately 60,000 square feet,
slightly larger than the existing 100 South space.
Intent will be to continue using the 1100 South location
until a second building can be built,
then move everything to the new space.


What a great addition to the Southeast end of Brigham City
and a very promising long term plan for the regional campus.
Thanks, Dr Lee, for your presentation!

Next week invite a friend to a special membership meeting.

And get those Peach Days tickets sold!!

Tuesday August 30th - Steak Fry!

The Annual Brigham City Rotary Club Steak Fry
was held at the home of Club President Paul Damon.

It was a great event and well attended.

The weather was perfect, the fellowship was excellent
the food was superb!

A BIG THANK YOU to the committee for their hard work
and to the Damon's for the use of their yard!

Just think....Not long until PEACH DAYS!
