President Vicky started with the announcement of the new R.I. President Mark Daniel Maloney and 5180 District Governor Ray Wardand that we will have back again (from two years ago) our esteemed and beloved Assistant Governor Desiree Wilson. She further announced that next week we will have our new District Governor Ray Ward visiting and he likes Hawaiian things, so wear Hawaiian clothing. Then Vicky made some announcements of upcoming events which are located in the "Announcements" section of this newsletter.

After some in the leadership introduced themselves and said a few words about their projects, and some "pins" and other paraphernalia were given out,
President Vicky ended with the following thoughts for her year:
Have Fun, have great Field trips, celebrate Birthdays, be Transparent, Engage Members, and Grow Membership!
We had a new fine-master, Chuck McBride, who is not as good looking as Vicky and has a reputation for being a heavy task master in his past, but what are you going to do? Someone must like him. Karen Munsterman had a birthday last week and RANG THE BELL; JayBoatwright went to Cancun last week (when we were dark) as just couldn’t stay away from Rotary – he made up there ( I assume with Vicky) and he brought back a flag, so naturally he RANG THE BELL, President Vicky followed suit and RANG THE BELL; Phyllis Baughman put in some for the upcoming District Conference; Chuck McBride put in some for the pretty girls in the room; Mark Beil RANG THE BELL because his son got a job in Rancho Cordova and he is going to have a grandbaby boy; Vinne Iosso RANG THE BELL in honor of a gerontology ; Dick Bauer RANG THE BELL in honor of the new year; Jane Haaland put in some because she has known President Vicky a long time; Ed Bunting BONGED THE GONG saying he is committed to Bonging the Bong or Ringing the Bell every other month; Greg Herrera BONGED THE GONG ‘cause he got rid of the presidency; Walter Malhoski RANG THE BELL because he had successful cataract surgery on this left eye; Phil Danz took issue with Chuck mentioning that the ladies present were mere girls, he said that they were mature sexy WOMEN! Wow, I count 7 Bell Ringers, and 2 Gong Bongers- total $900!

EXPLANATION: A BELL RINGER IS SOMEONE WHO DONATES $100 TO THE CLUB IN A GIVEN YEAR; A GONG BONGER IS ONE WHO DONATES AN ADDITIONAL $100 TO THE CLUB FOUNDATION (FOR GENERAL OR SPECIFIC PURPOSE)
RAFFLE
Don Wangberg had the honor of getting the FIRST winning ticket of the new year and it would have been fitting if he were to win the over $1000 in the kitty, but, through no fault of his own, he just got the King of Clubs. I don't know if he got a bottle of wine - so his son in law Ed Bunting can drink it. How generous is the Board going to be in Vicky's year?

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.

SPEAKERS/BOOK DONATIONS TO THE CARMICHAEL LIBRARY
As of June 26, 2017, we have purchased nearly 160 titles in honor of our speakers! Because of the large number of books, we are not showing them all at this time.
