Last Week: President Jerry welcomed Hannah Levin, our short-term exchange student to Japan. She brought three beautiful banners from Rotary Clubs she visited in Japan to exchange for Newton Rotary Club banners. Norma Cappola visited from Massachusetts and joined us for lunch on her way to a retirement dinner. Norma received her 20 year membership pin. Today’s speaker was Lisa Firkser of CASA - Court Appointed Special Advocate for Children in Morris and Sussex County. Our local office is housed in the Sussex County Court House. Anyone can call in abuse - 1.800.NJABUSE. There are 950 programs throughout the country and CASA welcomes volunteers.

Announcements: Our Scholarship Program was a big success, thanks to George Kaiser and all the committee members. Two host families are still needed for our incoming student from Thailand. All Rotary members are encouraged to bring a guest to next meeting. Fundraising ideas are being solicited by the new Fundraising Committee. If you've heard of some successful endeavor by other clubs or organizations, please let us know! Please consider making an annual Rotary Foundation donation - $100 is all it takes to be a sustaining Rotarian member and 100% of donations go to grants. We received a certificate from the American Legion for the Flag Pole Dedication. The Garden Party is coming up fast – Saturday, June 25th at Denise & David Current’s house. Everyone should have received their tickets by now. The tickets are $15.00 each, please pay Alice. Come out for a good time and fellowship with your fellow Rotarians!
