Meetings & Events
 August 27, 2024 - Steve Trimble, a Rotarian in the Tempe Downtown Club and a Professor of Practice in mechanical and aerospace engineering at Arizona State University, gave us an overview of many of the projects he has worked on - an impressive list indeed. He told us about the Order of the Iron Ring which was originally a Canadian organization.  He wrote a book of poems dealing with engineering entitled "Made to Serve, Made to Last: Poems and Thoughts of an Engineer". He read us a few of his poems before answering many questions from a very interested audience.
 August 12, 2024 - Doug (filling in for Dave) presented new member Steve with his permanent badge.  Welcome Steve!
 July 23, 2024 - Joe Danielewicz gave us a very interesting presentation related to Artificial Intelligence (AI). He made his presentation relevant to Rotary beginning with "Artificial Intelligence & the Rotary 4-way test. He then went on to talk about "Utilize AI to promote Human Flourishing". He talked about AI needing regulation like the FDA and talked about AI governance. Joe's presentation resulted in many questions from the members. Joe concluded by giving his latest book to our newest member, Steve.  His book is titled "The Ethos of Artificial Intelligence - Using AI to promote the good life while avoiding harm".  His talk is summarized in a handout that is available from our club upon request.  Many thanks Joe for an excellent presentation!
 July 15, 2024 - Scott, Doug, Rob, Stan, Rich, Sharon, and Lourdes visited TCH in Tempe today.  Dawn and Heather gave a presentation on TCH and a tour of the Tempe facility. TCH owns 5 group homes in Tempe and provides day time support for adults with developmental or physical disabilities. TCH also provides contract services to military bases across Arizona. We toured their secure document destruction division and as well as the TCH grounds.
