Rotary is known more for the projects and activities we do than for the people who are part of the organization. Yet, it’s the members who actually make up our Club and do the projects. We’re working on a plan to develop and share stories about Rotary 14 members. We’ve arranged for an intern in the UNL Honors Program to interview 10 to 12 members of Rotary 14, snap a few photos of that person and draft stories. These stories will then be used to share on the Club’s website, social media and perhaps submitted to the Journal Star and District 5650 for subsequent publication.

Jay and Deb would like to thank all Rotarians who volunteered to ring bells for the Salvation Army recently. They had to catch a plane for Utah right after the bell ringing.
Note: Send Yolanda your photos traveling outside of Lincoln and it doesn't have to be visiting another Rotary Club unless you are trying to maintain your perfect attendance.
Thank you to all Rotarians and their families who shared their time to ring bells for the Salvation Army this past weekend. Special thanks to Co-chairs Jay Wexler and Deb Uttecht. We will share the total funds raised once we receive the report from the Salvation Army.
