Web site up to date to with information as I receive it.Like
Jim and Carol's version last year, Hagerstown is offering the chance
to purchase individual event tickets.
Please try to think of innovative ways
we can raise funds for polio plus this year. One club mentioned in
the RI magazine sold bumper stickers with a slogan mentioning, thanks
Rotary for erasing Polio. Let Linda
know what you are thinking!

About a month ago
we lost the Club Web site when our Internet provider of server space
went
out of business. Through the kindness of a local Internet Service
Provider (Centre
of the Web) and my own business (Paul Rutter Web Design) the
club
Web site is back on the Internet. The new address
is http://www.centreweb.com/rotary/club/
or http://www.sc-rotary.org.
There are a few bugs to work out
with files that are missing as a result of our old ISP going out of
business without notice. I hope to have them back in place soon. Many
thanks to Vicon for the three years of service we did get from them
at no charge.
Caroline Kunz spoke on the topic "Drive 25 - Keep Kids Alive" This
program was started in Omaha, Nebraska to raise community awareness
on speed. Caroline and Officer Joe Dafutto instituted the program
in our area which includes all of the State College Area School District.
Some points Caroline made were: Driving 25 mph takes effort and most
neighborhood speeders live in the neighborhood. 86% of fatalities
occur on traffic ways that are not interstates.
We are the first town in PA to try this program 80% of drivers will
brake when they see the sign to Drive 25. The signs are moved around
so drivers don't get used to them and ignore them.
They are receiving a great deal of local support as all SCASD school
buses have bumper stickers as do all local municipal vehicles.
