Ben Sasse was elected to the United States Senate in 2014. He is on these committees: Judiciary, Armed Services, Banking Housing and Urban Affairs, and Joint Economic Committee.
As Ben opened his remarks he talked about the ideals of Rotary and how the essence of Rotary has been in America since early settlement – non-political, community, volunteering.
It is time to sell (or buy) tickets for the Annual Grocery Grab with Russ's. The Grocery Grab is our major source of funds for the Scholarship awards.
Last year the winning ticket benefited Saint Mark's Food Pantry - what a great way to support the programs of Lincoln South Rotary but also the needy in our community.
Lincoln South Rotary supports projects and activities in many ways. We can periodically provide funds through grant programs. There are grants available through the Lincoln South Rotary Club Foundation as well as matching grants through Rotary District 5650.
The Lincoln South Rotary Club Board has been approached about our meeting day. Is Friday serving our Members and Club well or would there be a benefit to change to Thursday. Lincoln #14 meets on Tuesday and Lincoln East meets on Wednesday.
An email was sent out with a survey - please read and reply. We want input from all members.
New Goals this year - $56 per capita for Polio Plus.
