Announcements: - Rotary Leadership Institute is being held Saturday, October 19th, at Victor High School, 953 High School, Victor NY. Parts I, II, and III will be taught. Cost is $70 per attendee. If your budget allows, it would be nice to subsidize the registration fee or share part of it. Stacy Ward has completed the three parts and can tell you what you will learn. For registration information, contact the Event Chair, Norma Madayag-Reilly at madayag.reillyn@frontier.com
- Gil Sweet announced the first Corning Civic Music concert, Five for Fighting, is September 28th at CMOG. Tickets are still available.

- Prez Ernie told about the initiative RI President Stephanie Urchick is undertaking to get clubs to install a Peace Pole as symbols of Rotary's commitment to peace and understanding. Ernie's first thought is that the Rotary Cherry Grove in Denison Park might be the perfect spot for one. Ernie is looking for input on this.
- World Polio Day is October 24th. Look for an announcement about the day from Wendy Winnett in the near future.
- Please note that the October 3rd meeting will be held at Carey's on Bridge Street!

Only 12 cards left in the deck and over $550 in the jackpot! |
