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?
August 14. Al Gore. Mr. Gore makes a very fiery speech but he would be more believable if he got his facts straight. The residents of the town of Lytton do not appreciate hearing their town "has burnt down," there were many buildings destroyed but the town is rebuilding. His time might be better spent campaigning for an increase in electricity production as the U.S. is predicted to require a 27% increase in electric consumption to power all the electric cars that are forecast to be sold by 2035.
-- David Werrett, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
August 15. John Hewko's address to the Convention was inspiring. As usual, the variety in our meeting was wonderful. Thanks!
-- Sharon Blaker, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370
August 15. John Hewko enlightened me to some of the newer facts about Rotary today and gives me hope of a better future for Rotary and the world.
-- Larry Reynolds, Rotary Club of Campbell River Luncheon, District 5020
August 15. John Hewko. Good to see a note from Rotarian Fritz from here in Stratford, Ontario, who won the Foundation recognition.
-- Lynne Ternosky, Rotary Club of D6330 Passport
August 20. John Hewko's talk was very inspirational.
-- Neil Rogers, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

Announcements
RECCO welcomes Elise
Dohogne to District 5370 (see below). She is being co-hosted by the
Drayton Valley RC and RECCO through the Youth Exchange program.
She says it is rich with culture and tradition. She is supported by Rotary District 2160. Her school there has 479 students. Although French is her native language, she understands some German and is learning English. She enjoyed gymnastics and helped teach a younger group. She participated in the performing arts.
Prior to Canada, she enjoyed travel to France, Crete, Switzerland and Germany, for the Christmas markets. Her love of people and cultures was established very early. She is considering Psychology or Communication as a career, as she likes to understand and help people.
Elise’s goals for her exchange year are to learn English, gain experience in communicating with others, and take home many memories. She is very interested in the differences between her home country and Canadian daily living; the schools, houses, roads, and what people do on a weekend. She would also like to go to a big store like Costco.
Although in Drayton Valley only a short time, Elise is already working on her goals. She attended the orientation in Grand Prairie, meeting other students and building friendships.

And a second great environmental idea
Humour

New members' corner
Rotarians, prospective members, and other guests
The initiative was instigated by Director Ixora, who collaborated with local artist Debi Carson of Art WithOut Limits (AWOL) on the concept. Together, they formulated the idea of creating a relaxing evening while guests explore Rotary's Seven Areas of Focus through trivia, participate in brewery tours, listen to the sounds of reggae music, and get creative in art while tasting local craft beers by Tola Brewery.
An interesting read from Rotary Club of Tortola in District 7020.
