Happy  Bucks
from: •Ron Quinn announced proudly that he became a father 26 years
ago today.....today is his daughter's birthday.•Dana Catalano announced
that his six-year-old son is a wrestler and received first place in a
tournament over the weekend.
Dana Catalano requested that we keep selling coupon
books. Team Number 5 is winning at the moment by 1 book over Team 4. They
really are a great value! Coupon Books.
Highlights or changes to the coupon book this year include three Indian
restaurants, Red's cheeseburgers and others. Team 2 is gonna come through
and do well.
Roger Fetter & Jim Eberly announced the need to sell more bricks
for the Central Parklet for the Children's Play Space. Our Club is competing
with the Evening Club, and the winning club will be served lunch by the
losing club at a future date. That's one more incentive to see bricks!
The District Newsletter for December is available at the District
Web site by clicking on the link to the current newsletter.
http://www.district7350.org
We need to sell bricks. Sign your
Brick Pledge today! We
can meet our goal if everyone buys one and sells one.
Roger announced that Tsunami checks are being
sought by Rotary, and it is recommended that all Rotarians give $10
(or as much as they would like to give) to The Rotary Foundation, although
this is  optional.
Any contributions will not be applied to Paul Harris contributions,
but they are greatly appreciated!
The District Conference will take place from May
13-15. Registration forms are available from Carol or on the District
website.
RYLA. The RYLA event will be held at Juniata
College this ummer. Nominations for attendees are being taken now. LeAnne
Martin is the contact person in our club. Students that are juniors
in highschool now are eligible.
Jim Eberly reported about Rotary's Central
Parklet Project sponsored by the two SC clubs. The new "Children's
Play Space" will be lot of fun for kids. The total costs of the project
are $50,000. 50% needs to be raised by the two SC clubs as part of Rotary's
100th anniversary in 2005. Bricks are on
sale ($100 for first kid name, $50 for each subsequent). The bricks
will be used for the walkway. A pamphlet
was distributed. Please be selling bricks!
 The
club has a list serv. All active members
are on it. The email address for it is SCDTROTARY-@LISTS.PSU.EDU. Email Paul Rutter to see about your admission.
It is a private listserv not open to the
public. If you are already on it and want help with it please call or
email me.
There are two new Web pages up. One is for Rotary
Foundation Program alumni.The hope or goal behind
this page is to keep members aware of persons in our community that might
benefit further from Rotary by membership or participation in other things
we are doing. The second page is on the District Web site. It honors the
Veterans in our Rotary community. Both pages are still in an initial
building stage so if you know of anyone that has been left out, please
let me know so I can include them.

| Previous
Week's Speaker: Harry Zimbler |
 Harry
Zimbler talked about the war in Iraq and how it has unexpectedly affected
him. First he shared the varying perspectives he sees due to family
and friends from Europe whooppose the American political situation.
Then  he
shared a touching story about his 47-year-old sister-in-law, who is
a single parent and has been deployed to Iraq, where she will go after
intensive training. She is an electronics specialist and a part of the
Pennsylvania National Guard, 228th Division, and leaves behind her 12-year-old
son, for whom Harry and his wife (along with their 14-year-old son)
have assumed guardianship. It is a difficult time of adjustment for
the family and for the child, who fears for his mother's life.
At the end, a few comments were made about the fact that these kinds
of people need our support, too, as well as the tsunami victims.
This week’s note taker: Laurel B. Sanders
