Happy  Bucks
from: •I apologise I missed this segment, but I do know that
there were happy people despite it being the holiday season, perhaps
because they knew Marshall "Doc" and Chuck were taking the
stage.
The district Newsletter is ready. You can check it out at the district
Website:http://www.district7350.org.
There is a great story about the Youth Exchange student in Germany
now.
The Bowl Games Football Pool is underway now too. The link to an entry
form is on the Web site at http://centreweb.com/rotary/club/football.html.
You can have your family members play too! Double the fun!
Teresa thanked the president of the "other" State College
Rotary club for his yeoman service in completing the Dictionary Project.
John Vincenti was present for all of the Rotary dictionary donations at
all the Centre County elementary schools. John was presented with one
of our club coffee mugs in honor of his dedication and hard work.
Hugh Mose announced we have received a matching grant for our World
Community Project that is trying to outfit 8 classrooms with furniture
at a school in Istanbul, Turkey. Our club commitment is $2000 and the
total pledged between our club and district and the club and district
in Turkey is $19,000.
Ron Quinn and Leanne Martin have resigned from the club. Ron because
he is going back to graduate school and Leanne because the duties of her
new position require her to be on the road and out of town frequently.
We wish them well. This is the reason that Linda reported our membership
was 56 and declining.
The club received a request from Corry Niederer, a Penn's Valley high
school student, for financial assistance in attending the Presidential
Leadership meetings next spring. The meetings are held in Washington,
D.C. Several members of our club have had children attend this event in
the past and all seemed to agree that it is a worthwhile event. The club
donated $100 to Corry's cause.
Pam Ferguson has been placed in charge of Bad Grammar at South Hills
Business School. Pam admits that this is a formidable challenge. What
an honor!
Sell Sell Sell your coupon books. Paul made a flier
that might help sell these things which actually sell themselves: 49 coupons
for various values in town! Contact Rotarian Dr. Tracy Sepich to get your
coupon books. Her office is over by Lowes and the old Philatelic building.
Treasurer's report: Carl Hill reported that we are in good shape and
that our hat passing in November for the Rotary Rose Bowl Parade float
netted a $40 donation.
Secretary's report: Linda Friedman reported that our membership roster
is 56 and declining and that attendance while up to 60% for November continues
to be dismal. Come on people, try to make the meeting and if you just
can't, complete a make-up at another club or at the eclub. Point your
web browser to: http://www.rotaryeclubone.org/index.html
click on Programs and follow the directions. At the end you print out
your make up slip and submit it to current secretary Ms. Friedman.
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 relatively 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.

Week's Speaker: Holiday Auction |
Marshall and Chuck were the Über auctioneers
today rasing a total of at least a hundred dollars. On the front end
of a nine inch snow storm they put on quite a show for the 40 Rotarians
in attendance! I believe the highest item went for $25 on a Barnes
and Noble gift card and a "Book
Thong") I don't know what it is though! Well I do now. I
clicked on the link. PDG Carol tallied the winners and is accepting
payment for the various items.
One of the more interesting items was the Nittany Lion hand puppet
that I don't know if I would accept after the way Chuck was playing
with it but that could be just me that is wary!
This week’s note taker: Paul Rutter
*******************************
The annual
holiday party will be at Gary's house, 1252
Park Hills Avenue West, State College on 21 December 2005. Park
Hills Avenue West is located off  Circleville
Road. If you are coming from Atherton, turn onto Blue Course Drive (Giant
Market), turn right onto Circleville at the traffic light, take the
third right from Circleville onto Park Hills Avenue West and Gary's
driveway is the first driveway after the Cambridge intersection. If
you are coming from Valley Vista or Science Park turn onto Circleville
as though you were going towards Atherton. Turn left at the second road
to your left (Park Hills Ave West) from Circleville. Follow info above.
Kudos to Gary and Sharon for making the party reality at such short
notice. Let's make it the best attended party ever!
