President's Message
Hello, Rotarians!
 
We have had a very busy and productive week, haven’t we?
 
First, kudos to a great presentation by Brandon Blell last Wednesday - very informative and several excellent points. Be sure to read the handout swhich were on each table!
 
Last Friday, we had a board meeting which was good. Please note, that RYAN SWENGROS, due to a job change, will be transferring his membership to another Rotary club across the lake. Sorry to see Ryan go but happy for him.
 
Then on Sunday, Ross Bulla hosted our social at 4pm and it was a HOME RUN! Great food, drink, weather with corn hole and Ax Throwing (!!!) to boot. And, a nice salute to Roger Reinhardt (hubby of Sherry) to recognize all of his volunteerism over the years with a Paul Harris Fellow.
 
And now, get ready for this week…. The always entertaining Jim Perry will be  speaking on DACdb. Be prepared to learn…. And laugh!
 
Come on out! Hope to see you on Wednesday!

USO "Helmet Fund" Kicks off in October
Denver/Lake Norman Rotary has voted to again participate in the USO's annual campaign to support our men and women serving in uniform around the world who will miss major milestones in their lives while they're deployed protecting our Freedom, notably the Holiday Season.  Monetary donations will be collected this  month for the USO at weekly meetings via the customary "Helmet Fund".  Donations will help make possible free phone calls home, free Wi-Fi connections in even the most remote locations, and 'USO2GO" kits of DVDs, video games, snacks, sports equipment, and other amenities "from Home" for our front-line Troops.  Look for the helmet on a table near the sign-in area, and let's continue the club's awesome annual giving to the USO.

Lincoln County Rotary Student Loan Fund Now in its 30th Year
2022 marks the 30th Anniversary of the Lincoln County Rotary Student Loan Fund.  For thirty years, the Rotary Clubs of Lincoln County have helped graduates of Lincoln County high schools gain their post-high school education dreams.  The clubs created the fund to offer low interest loans to students, while offering area Rotarians the opportunity to put the Service Above Self Rotary Motto into action.  Over the years the Lincoln County Rotary Student Loan Fund has fundraised more than $2.7 million and loaned over $7.2 million to more than 850 students from Lincoln County.  In addition to the Rotary Student Loan Fund, the organization recently launched a new scholarship program, Rotary Rooted, partnering with area high schools to help students gain access to Gaston College classes while attending high school.  The Rotary Rooted program covers fees and book costs for students that need assistance.
