Adam Pohorsky is out with a cold; Pia-Sophie Hornung had a busy week:  the stock car racesstarring in the volleyball tournament won by CA, where she was awarded an All-Star trophy;  then  to the New York Fashion Show, Times Square and  Shrek  - the Musical.   

 

ANNOUNCEMENTS

   IMPORTANT:  THIS AFFECTS YOUR FINANCES!   Sign the books for new members Robert Brozic; Don Raes; Paul Minor; Bob Lambrix; and Chuck Zanghi. 

   ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY.  George Herren called for helpers for the Fall event Saturday, October 17.

   ROTARY/KIWANIS GOLF RESULTS.  Avenging the freak Kiwanis softball upset, Rotary captured the golf tournament by 70 strokes.  Kudos to all who participated, but especially to Marty Muehe and John Spare for their combined prize-winning long and short games, respectively.

   ROTARY PICNIC.  Tom Sheavly announced that approximately 100 folks would be attending the Sunday picnic at Ben Gullo's home.   

   EVENING AT THE RACES.   Past championship driver Scott Kesel reported that Rotarians, family and friends enjoyed the preferred viewing at last week's races, during an action-packed evening.  Thanks for your part in putting this together,

  THE BIG READ - EDGAR ALLAN POE. Carol Shama reported on Wood Library's Poe-related programs for this year's The Big Read.  Brochures outline the many activities and opportunities throughout the month of October.  Check for Wood Library for details. 

 

FINES, ETC.

Seems that Mark Vahey misplaced his score card during the R-K Golf Tournament.   In the case of the missing pit pass, Kirk Locus hinted ever so subtly that someone knows where it is, but stopped short of any accusations.  Kirk is manufacturing a replacement. A gracious George Herren  yielded the remaining pit pass to Carol Shama for $23.00.
 

HAPPY DOLLARS

Ed Varno seemed nearly ecstatic that his youngest just celebrated her 21st birthday.  And Mark Vahey celebrated the fine golf tournament game turned in by Len Kane. John Spare then celebrated his winning round with golf partner Marty Muehe.  Also,   Linda Collins, a new granddaughter; Fred Magley survivor of babysitting his 5-year-old granddaughter.
 

REMEMBRANCES

Ed O'Hanlon recently underwent open heart surgery; a card was circulated for members' best wishes.
 

PROGRAM NOTES

     Quail Summit's Kandy Liguori and Julie Chiccino shared the concept and the reality of Second Wind Dreams, a non-profit group making dreams come true for seniors.  The concept itself would warm your heart, but the ladies showed real-life dreams of real-life people...dreams made to happen by Second Wind.  We were touched by stories of unusual dreams: a long-retired fireman who wanted to visit his fire house (and ended up with much more); an elderly lady who wanted to play round of golf (and who would NOT let Roc Pietropaolo bend the rules for her!);  a private plane ride over Canandaigua Lake; and a Harley Davidson motorcycle ride.  Just as touching were the special twists given to family outings, bridge parties, sports events, and reunions.  Roc Pietropaolo, an active member of the Advisory Board, shared some of his own experiences.

      Rotarians were urged to help with dreams yet to come true, through financial support or by volunteering an activity from our businesses or our hobbies.  Contact Kandy Liguori at Quail Summit, 585-396-1010.  Thanks, Kandy, Julie and Roc, for the heartwarming tales of senior dreams come true.

 

50/50 RESULTS

"The Syndicate" missed the $32 jackpot, but Mark Vahey recouped $22.

Scott.
