THE CARMICHAEL CLUB HAS FOUND A NEW MEETING LOCATION
We meet at the Stage 76 Kitchen and Bar at 7600 Fair Oaks Blvd., near the Manzanita split, located at the corner of Fair Oaks Blvd and Wayside Lane. For those who have been in the Club awhile, we used to meet at this restaurant when it was called the Capri.
Community service - Vicky Boatwright:
Unfortunately, Effie Yeaw has cancelled the Habitat Restoration February 26 workday. Hopefully they will have another one soon. They are supposed to let me know which ones will be a "go", so stand by.
Mission Oaks Recreation & Park District (serving the Arden Arcade area) have decided they will not be having a pancake breakfast and since the event is very small and doesn't require a lot of volunteers, will not need our help at their Easter Blast on 4/16.
Mission Oaks Park District still would like us to participate in their Kids Summer Carnival on 5/21. They would like us to have a Rotary table to promote our club and Rotary in general, which I think we can/should do. They will let us know what else we can help with when the time is closer - they are still in the early
I'm also working with Carmichael Elementary to see what else we can do for them, and I am staying in touch with the Carmichael Park District regarding help they can use. Do you have a suggestion of a community partner or project you think would be good for our club? If so, let's talk about it!!
Cheers,
Vicky

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 many 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 by Greg Freeman, Branch Supervisor, Carmichael Library, subsidiary of the Sacramento Public Library.

Over the past eight years, nearly 500 books have been donated to the Carmichael Public Library. We show only the latest donated books with the names of the Guest Speakers.
