ANNUAL CLUB STEAK FRY

The annual Club Steak Fry was held last evening at the home of Rotarian Dave Lewis.  The food and fellowship were so good, I forgot to take any pictures!

We had a good crowd in attendance but not as many as there should have been.

Special guests included:

LouAnn Thompson and her husband.  LouAnn is the BE Interact Club Advisor at the High School.
Brian and Sherry Sandlian. Their son Paul is currently in Brazil as a foreign exchange student from Brigham City.
Oscar! Our foreign exchange student from Sweden.

We were very excited to have these individuals enjoying the evening with us!

Just a reminder:  Meeting next week is on WEDNESDAY instead of Tuesday!!

TUESDAY AUG 20, 2013

Special Membership Meeting was held today. 

 

Guests were invited to attend and a couple of special presentations were made.

 

 

 

BE High School student Kaitlyn Klein

was awarded a $500 Rotary Club scholarship.

Kaitlyn has been a participant in RYLA

and past President of the BE Interact Club.

 

 

Sherry Sandlian spoke briefly about her son's experience as he begins his Rotary Exchange in Brazil.  She expressed her gratitude to the Club for our support and coordinating the exchange program.  We hope to soon hear from our incoming exchange student.

 

President Kevin Blaylock spoke of our local community service projects and the many ways in which the Brigham City club helps our local area and organizations.

 

Brad barber presented a review of the Mexico Project held in June and an invitation to Rotarians to get involved and participate in the trip next June.

 

Peach Days is coming.  Be sure to get a hold of your raffle tickets. Each Rotarian is requested to sell at least 200 tickets in our largest fund raiser of the year.

 

Next week is the annual Steak Fry at Dave Lewis' home.  Don't miss it!!

Tuesday Aug 6 - Club Assembly

We met today in club assembly and discussed a number of business items. 

One of the important items was a discussion of the Peach Days float and the need to seriously consider an upgrade to the float.  We have been pulling the float in the Peach days parade for many years, and have recently begun sharing it with the Ogden Club.  But time has not been kind to it, thus the need for the upgrade.

It was decided that the float committee will do some sprucing up this year and then take seriously the prospect of a complete overhaul next year, possibly with help from surrounding clubs, offering them the opportunity to use it in their local parades.

Along those lines, we were presented with the Peach Days Raffle tickets in preparation for the big fund raiser.  Only four weeks till Peach Days and lots of tickets to sell!

If you didn't make it to Rotary today, get in touch with Dan Price to pick up your allotment of tickets and get busy selling.

A reminder was made of upcoming meetings:

* Rotarians and Sons next week with Robby Gunther, Box Elder High School football coach

* Special membership meeting in two weeks with Brad and Annette Barber presenting on our service trip to Puerto Peñasco Mexico last month - Remember to invite a non-Rotarian to meeting and invite them to join the club

* In three weeks will be our annual Club Steak Fry at Rotarian Dave Lewis' home.  Always lots of good food and fellowship.

Hope to see each of you soon at any and all of the above events!

Annual Club Picnic

Our annual Brigham City Rotary Club picnic was held Tuesday July 30th at Rotary Constitution Park. We had a few Rotarians and families at the park and everyone enjoyed lots of food and fellowship.

 

 

 

Hope we can figure out how to make this a better attended event in the future!
