Comments from our guests and members
Members and guests attending our weekly meetings are very important to us. Based on your comments we are able to produce many more educational, inspiring, and entertaining weekly meetings.
Following are some of the comments we have received. Would you please send us your comments?
May 3. Another wonderful meeting. The video by RAG against Slavery was not only very enlightening but so, so tragic.
-- Sharon Blaker, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
Quantum Physics for 7-year-olds (Dominic Walliman). Dominic gives us examples of how he has taken subjects he is passionate about and is able to understand their complexities well enough to simplify them so a seven-year-old can understand them. Follow your passions and you can and will excel at them which will be beneficial to not only yourself - that is what I took away.
-- Michael Thomas, Rotary Club of Stony Plain, District 5370
May 2. The environmental clip hit the nail on the head: The earth supplies enough to satisfy every man's need, but not enough for every man's greed!!
-- Vicki Horsfield, E-Club of Canada One, district 5370
Quantum Physics for 7-year-olds. It was a very interesting speaker, very informative.
-- Martin Secker, Rotary Club of Kingston, District 7040
May 3. Attended the weekly meeting: Speaker, Dominic, Quantum Physics for 7-year-olds. Also, enjoyed learning more about youth service - developing the next generation of leaders and making peace a priority. Being a career coach, I got a chuckle from the career choice analysis humour clip. And I found the skating grandma in Siberia quite inspiring and remarkable.
-- Brenda Race, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
May 8. Thanks! Another very educational program.
-- David Werrett, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

addresses the Houston Convention
To make a difference in the circle of life
To reach out with our hand, heart, and soul
So the magic will begin to happen
As the wheel begins to roll.
Let’s keep turning the wheel together
So all humanity thrives.
We are the power and the magic
To serve, to change lives.

There’s a new opportunity for kids across the NWT to pour themselves a cup of ambition this year – with some help from the Queen of Country herself.

The NWT Literacy Council announced this week it will support Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library program in 15 of the territory’s communities this year. In those communities, families can register any child aged under five to be mailed a free book from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library every month until their fifth birthday.
“The literacy council has been trying to do a territory-wide Dolly Parton Imagination Library program for many years, to complement the existing programs that have already been happening around the NWT, funded by other groups,” said Katie Johnson, the council’s program manager.
Those existing programs include one run by Fort Providence’s Deh Gah School and others in 16 communities supported by the BeautyMark Salon and Rotary E-Club of Canada One.
Thanks to funding from United Way NWT and the NWT government’s Healthy Choices Fund, the program will now benefit communities from Fort Good Hope to Dettah. It will also be available to Yellowknives Dene First Nation members living in Yellowknife.
For a full list of communities and how to sign up, see the NWT Literacy Council’s website.
