SPECIAL EVENT - Clothing Drive

Andy has offered to collect clothes that members bring to the meeting on Monday March 25 and take them to the Clothes Cabin.

This is a very worthwhile organization and worthy of our support.

Men's warm-weather clothing is in great need but all clothing will be appreciated.

Please dig into your closets and take this opportunity to rid yourself of "old" clothes AND help others in our community.

Hope to see everyone with at least one piece of clothing to donate next Monday!

Come Golf with us On April 5

Join us at the Whirlwind Golf Course on April 5. Just a reminder - this will be a best ball scramble with a shotgun start at 1:30 pm

AWIM - slide show of activities

The January to March AWIM project at Kyrene del Pueblo Middle School was very successful. Students loved the experience and a new creative wrinkle was added this year.

Each student team made a video of their project and prepared a "commercial" to sell their car. A slide show of the activities is available by clicking here

People interested in seeing the team videos should send an email to Ken Pollock requesting the link to the files. The easiest way to do this is go to the Contact Us button on the Kyrene Rotary Website or Click here

Dementia and Comedy

March 18, 2019 - Dr Daniel Nightengale, co-founder and director of Dementia Therapy Specialists regaled us with some humor (he is a stand-up comedian) that led into a serious discussion of dementia.

Dr Dan has found that comedy is a great tool for helping people with dementia. He said that dementia is beginning to occur much earlier in today's western population and he believes that a major contributor is the increasing consumption of sugar in our diets. He also explained the difference between alzheimers and vascular dementia and how they must be treated differently. Much discussion ensued and the members truly enjoyed his presentation.
