Utica Rotary Potpourri

- Pam and FX Matt recently welcomed an exchange student from Spain into their home. This event is made Hub-worthy by the fact that this is the sixth time that the Matts will be hosting an inbound student for part of the school year. Matt children have been YE outbounds to Germany and Thailand, with young Larry hoping for a gig in Sweden in a few years. Pam, FX and family have been committed to this program long before Pam joined our club, and we thank them for their continued leadership.

John Wolff has announced that the Pride of Workmanship Awards will be presented on Friday, November 5 at Twin Ponds. The POW committee reached out to the public for nominations last year, and that effort will expand for the 2010 awards. The committee will be meeting shortly to plan the awards; email John if you would like to help.

- Rotary tennis starts on Thursday, September 16 at the Paragon Tennis Center. The league has openings for one full time (approximately every other Thursday) player, and substitutes. Players of all ability levels are welcome; please see commissioner Fran Pugliese if you wish to swing a racket in fellowship.

- There is no club meeting this week; have a great holiday weekend.

You Can Make a Difference at Columbus

The 2010-11 school year about to begin is the 13th of our Columbus Elementary School adoption project. Since 1998 Utica Rotary and its community partners have worked with teachers, administration and staff at Columbus to meet some of the unmet needs of students and their families. Through our relationship we have donated dictionaries, mittens, toothbrushes, school supplies, clothing and other needed items. Rotarians have also donated countless hours in the classroom, and the courtyard environmental education center must be seen to be believed. With our help, Columbus students formed an Early Act service club, the first of its kind in New York state.

The chair of our Columbus project this year is Sam Rudolph, and he needs your help. Sam is coordinating reading volunteers for classrooms, and would like all Utica Rotarians to consider devoting some time to this program. The commitment varies with the teacher - some prefer weekly visits (which can be shared with other volunteers); for others, twice a month is fine. Ask any member who has been a Rotary Reader - this experience will touch your heart, and you will gain 25-30 new friends in a very short time.

There will be other opportunities for service at Columbus, including a fall cleanup of the courtyard, and participation with students in Early Act. Please consider Columbus for part of your Rotary service this year, and email Sam to join our Columbus volunteers.
