May 24. Seems a bit strange hearing Johnny Cash
recite the tale of Sam McGee, but he does a good job.
-- David Werrett,

May 31. Loved the meeting this week. True Canadiana!
Amazing fiddle player. And very

May 25. Excellent presentation on food and nutrition security. Great meeting!
-- Sharon Blaker,

June 2. Great program! Loved Michael Cleveland’s music! And can’t wait to get my hands on Judie and
Michael Bopp’s book, Recreating the World: A Practical Guide to Building
Sustainable Communities.

Humour
I had my patience
tested. I'm negative.
Remember, if you
lose a sock in the dryer, it comes back as a Tupperware lid that doesn't fit
any of your containers.
If you're sitting
in public and a stranger takes the seat next to you, just stare straight ahead
and say "Did you bring the money?"
When you ask me
what I am doing today, and I say "nothing," it does not mean I am
free. It means I am doing nothing.
Age 60 might be
the new 40, but 9:00 is new midnight.
I don't mean to
interrupt people. I just randomly remember things and get really excited.
When I ask for
directions, please don't use words like "east."
It's the start of
a brand new day, and I'm off like a herd of turtles.
Don't bother
walking a mile in my shoes. That would be boring. Instead, spend 30 seconds in
my head. That'll freak you right out.
That moment when
you walk into a spider web that suddenly turns you into a karate master.
Sometimes,
someone unexpected comes into your life outta' nowhere, makes your heart race,
and changes you forever. We call those people cops.
The older I get,
the earlier it gets late.
My luck is like a
bald guy who just won a comb.

New members' corner
“We need to stop
thinking of new members as people we can mark down as statistics and then
forget about,” Knaack said. “Every new member changes us a little bit. That
person brings a new perspective, new experiences. We need to embrace this
constant renewal. We will grow stronger as we learn from new members.”
Knaack also wants
to see more women in leadership roles and see Rotaractors play an integral role
in how new clubs are formed and run. He encouraged district leaders to create
new club models and rethink what it means to be in Rotary, and allow young
people to be the architects of these new clubs.
“We have to be
open to new approaches, and creating unique clubs for younger people is just
part of the solution,” said Knaack. “Let Rotaractors decide what kind of Rotary
experience works best for them. These young people are bright, energetic, and
they get things done.”
-- RI President, Holger Knaack

Food for thought
Becoming Jane.
This interactive travelling exhibition celebrates the life and work
of Jane Goodall, who braved the unknown to provide a remarkable
window into humankind's closest living relatives—chimpanzees.
The original
exhibition was scheduled from November 22, 2019, through to September 7,
2020. Temporarily closed.
