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.

Week's Speaker: Club
Assembly and Classification Speech by Bob Williams |
Ericka Haviland, our outbound youth exchange scholar to Thailand visited
and spoke briefly about the trip that starts next month.
Attendance was 68 last month.
Bob Williams started off by introducing his mom visiting from Florida.
Bob was a member of the GSE team to Korea and this was not his first
experience with Rotary. He knew about Rotary from a former Rotarian
and charter member of our club, Eric Fairbanks and he thought it was
the little round disk indicating exclusivity on a plaque as one enters
a new town.
Bob is a State College born and raised and never left product. He lived
the first 6 years of his life in a motel, the Mt. Nittany Motel which
his family owned. His father was a teacher.
Bob's career until 6 years ago was in the retail grocery business.
When his former employer closed their State College operation, Bob was
left with needing a job. Tom Kerr came through and hired Bob as a sales
rep for their inside business. Bob lost a lot of his eyesight in a November
1983 hunting accident so he is unable to drive well. Bob keeps active
though; he is president of a land owners association somewhere north
of I-80 and is a graduate of Leadership Centre County. He has a son
that is a rising junior at State College High School.
On a personal note, Bob was an awesome member because
he understood the GSE program and made multiple efforts to seize the
moment all the time when we were representing our club and district
with the GSE team to South Korea. - ed.
