Our demotion of President Greg Herrera was staged in contemporary context, giving attention to the political happenings of our day, we impeached Greg for “High Crimes and Misdemeanors”.
The principal actors in the skit were Judge Mark Urban, Prosecutors Phil Danz & David Thorman, Defense Attorney Dick Bauer and, of course, the accused Greg Herrera. We thought it was a hilarious skit, with the central theme centering around Greg’s unabashed infatuation with toilets. At the end of the skit, it was decided that President Greg could not be impeached because he was never sworn in and therefore was illegitimate. I think Jay Boatwright took a video of the whole skit and it is bouncing around the internet (maybe on our Club’s Facebook page). We certainly thank Greg who led us through another very successful Rotary year….
After thanking his Board and all members for the great year of accomplishment, President Greg introduced the new incoming president Vicky Boatwright, the first woman president in the 71 years of the Club’s existence. Vicky gave us the new Rotary International theme, “Rotary Connects the World” and was legally sworn in by prestigious long time Rotarian, Chuck McBride. Vicky introduced her new Board (photo’s below) and gave a few announcements of upcoming events.
Now Rotary turns itself over to new leadership, Rotary International President Mark Daniel Maloney,5180 District Governor Ray Ward, and, of course, our own new Carmichael Club president Vicky Boatwright. More about this in our next Edition….

Yourbulletin editor just couldn’t help bringing to your notice the relevance of the last six “Book Donations” by Branch Supervisor, Berta Boegel given “in honor of” our recent keynote speakers to the Carmichael Library (Sacramento Public Library) at our Club meetings. Note that Berta has fined tuned the speakers topic to the subject of the book! They are below:
Missy McCall, who talked about “Human Trafficking”, book donated in her name: Under theBirch Tree: A Memoir of Discovering Connections and Finding a Home by Nancy Chadwick.
Mark Urban, who talked about a trip to Ethiopia, book donated in his name: The Pharaoh’sTreasure: The Origin of Paper and the Rise of Western Civilization by John Gaudet.
Dr. Beverly Wesner-Hoen, who talked about being a part of Rotary Fellowship, book donated Why To Kill a Mockingbird Matters: What Harper Lee’s Book and Iconic American Film Mean to Us Today by Tom Santopietro
Doug Haaland, who talked about his trip to Israel, book donated in his name: Shaya: An Odysseyof Food, My Journey Back to Israel by Alon Shaya.
and 6. Bill Baxter and Rich Plath, who talked about “Fly Fishing” – get this – “On the Fly”: HoboLiterature and Songs 1879-1941 ed. By Iain Mcintyre. How appropriate….
During the incumbency of President David Thorman,(2013-14) it was decided that instead of giving a particular gift, ie coffee mug, pen etc. to honor our guest speaker each week, we would simply donate a book to the Carmichael Library. So below are some of the books that we have donated in honor of recent speakers.
It is the "gift that keeps of giving" because those who will check out these books from the library will derive many hours of pleasure for years to come, and it enhances learning and literacy. The books are chosen byBertaBoegel, Branch Supervisor, Carmichael Library, subsidiary of the Sacramento Public Library.
