Co-sponsored by our Rotary Club and the Curry Health Foundation. This year's theme is "An Evening at the Golden Globes". There will be a red carpet, "Best of" Awards, entertainment, great food, and silent and live auctions! BUY YOUR TICKETS NOW! Tables seat 8 at a cost of $35.00 per person. Save a place for yourself or reserve places for you and your friends. Seating is limited so please RSVP soon. Donations are still needed, if you have not already donated please have your donation to Amy at Able Insurance (or at any meeting) no later than March 31. This year's proceeds will support the Children's Dental Health Initiative. Proceeds from the silent and live auctions will be matched by the Oregon Community Foundation to help fund an important dental treatment program for children in grades K-3 on Curry County without dental insurance.
FOUNDATION UPDATE: "Every Rotarian Every Year" Remember your donation to the Rotary Foundation is Tax Deductible!
MEMBERSHIP MOMENT: Do you know a young professional? Bring them to a meeting or better yet, create a list and bring a group of young professionals to a meeting. Like ages attract, make your program one that is of interest to them. Recruit, recruit!!! Expose your club to a younger point of view.
PREGNANT AT 62: A woman went to the doctor's office where she was seen by one of the younger doctors. After about 4 minutes in the examination room, she burst out screaming as she ran down the hall. An older doctor stopped her and asked what the problem was, and she told him her story. After listening, he had her sit down and relax in another room. The older doctor marched down the hallway back to where the young doctor was writing on his clipboard. What's the matter with you?" the older doctor demanded. "Mrs. Terry is 62 years old, has four grown children and seven grandchildren, and you told her she was pregnant?" The younger doctor continued writing and without looking up said, "Does she still have the hiccups?"
