This Week's Meeting 5/20
This week we are back on the covered patio area at Cherry Valley Country Club at 7:30AM on Thursday.   Members can also attend via Zoom - an email will go out to members with the link prior to the meeting.   This week's speaker will be Krista Collopy from Comfort Zone Camps.
50/50 Tickets
The end is here - turn in your tickets and cash to Paul Blodgett ASAP.  If you are feeling lucky and want to buy a few more, let Paul know and we will charge the amount to your dues.  Thanks to everyone who sold tickets!!!  
Flags For Heroes
Calling all ROTARIANS!!!  Only three weeks left to sell sponsorships for Flags For Heroes.  NOW is the time to call your friends, coworkers and/or family and remind them that you are in a community service organization and this is how we raise funds to do the important work that we do.  Tell them it's only 50 bucks a flag to honor someone special in their lives.  Thanks them for their support and then send them over to our website www.MontgomeryRotary.org - you got this.
Stigma Free Walk
Rotary District 7475 and the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) is teaming up to present the Stigma Free Awareness Walk in Robbinsville on May 22nd from 10AM - noon.  Stigma is a mark of disgrace which results from the judgement of others. Stigma causes feelings of shame, embarrassment, distress, hopelessness and a reluctance to seek help.  Please consider walking or pledging a donation.  For more info, click HERE
We Need Speakers!
Our Speakers Chair, Cory Wingerter, works very hard to keep our pipeline of speakers full but he's having some trouble getting speakers lined up for our June and July meetings.  If you have any ideas for a good speaker, please contact Cory Wingerter as soon as possible.  Also, if you gave your classification talk many moons ago and would like to give the club an update (also known as a "reclassification talk"), let Cory know.
India COVID Relief
At its last meeting, the club Board voted to send $3,500 from the discretionary portion of the Giving Budget to help battle the huge upswing in deadly COVID-19 variants raging through India.  Kudos to President-Elect Andy Mozumdar for researching and connecting with the Rotary Club of Calcutta Suburban North who will use this money to buy three Oxygen Concentrators. 
Habitat For Humanity - New Date!
Calling all volunteers for Habitat For Humanity.  Our new opportunity to work is Friday, June 18th from 9AM - 2PM at the Willow Rd site.  Please email Sharon Prosinski at slprosinski64@gmail.com if you wish to be put on the list.  Hard hats will be provided.
Advertise On Our Website!
Joining Kevin Lynch, Cory Wingerter just started advertising his business on our website!  For information on rates and procedure, go the home page of our website and download the website sponsorship guide found on the right hand side of the page.  There will be a limited number of rotating ads and club members will get first crack at the opportunity before it is opened to the general public.  Proceeds from ad sales will be used to offset the club's website and communications expenses.  Any questions, ask the webmaster Matt Romanoski.
Like, Share, Comment
A request from our Public Relations Director Heather Achenbach - please like, share and comment on the posts on our club Facebook page!!  It's a numbers game. The more people that like, share and comment on posts, the more the posts will be visible to community members and the more likely that we can attract new members.
