Forget the Stock Market, Attend the Happy
Hour Tuesday… Bring your spouse or guest and join your fellow Club members on
Tuesday, October 21 at REDS at Sedona Rouge at 5:30 pm. The informal event
is a perfect occasion to introduce prospective members to THE Rotary Club of
Sedona. Don’t miss the VHP program Tuesday… Created by an act of Congress
and signed into law on October 27, 2000, the Veterans History Project (VHP)
collects and preserves the remembrances of American war veterans and civilian
workers who supported them. VHP relies on volunteers throughout the nation
to collect veterans' stories on behalf of the Library of Congress (LOC). The
Sedona Public Library became an active partner in the project in 2003, and
conducts and records interviews with area veterans, archives interviews
and related materials, and forwards copies to the LOC. All of these stories
are available to researches, educators and other interested parties via the
VHP database. The Sedona Public Library also houses project data and
materials relative to the Sedona area participants. Music, Recognition and Awards... Sgt. at Arms Bert Harclerode
set the tune for the meeting this week. The Club recognized our October
Student of the Month, Brenna Garland,
a busy Senior at Sedona’s Red Rock High School She is on the student
council, serves as Co-Editor-in-Chief of the Sting and is a member of the
National Honor Society. Brenna was joined at the meeting by her mother,
Tricia, and teacher, Maureen Barton. President Linda also recognized Renata Barnwell and Drew Bailor with Rotary’s Quarterly
Service Recognition Certificates. They both have been very active in our
Community Service Projects.
Congratulations!
