The term "making work fun" comes to life with this crew of members Todd Taylor (Chair), Mark Smith, Tom Rowe, George Gober and the Gilmore brothers, sons of TJ Gilmore from the Lewisville Noon Rotary Club worked together to help residents from 177 homes properly dispose of their Hazardous Household Waste.

End of Summer Pool Party
hosted by
Mark and Nancy Smith
Thank you Mark & Nancy. You two host a fantastic party. Even though the only way any of got wet at your pool party is when Sadie retrieved the ball from the pool and shook out her coat, we all had a blast. The games were fun, the food was fantastic and of course the company was outstanding. Only in Texas can it be to hot to go swimming (except for Ryker and Sadie). That did not stop us from enjoying a great time with our Rotary Buds.
Congratulations!

It is always a joy for a club president to be able to induct new members. Particularly at Lewisville Morning Rotary were new members are pinned and vested in their brand new Rotary vest. Both of which celebrate Rotary's Brand as PEOPLE of ACTION that place service above self.

Global Grant to purchase Dental Equipment for a
Free Clinic in Tirasses, Costa Rica
In Costa Rica, immigrants do not receive government funded healthcare support. Our club is participating with the Rotary Club of San Pedro Curridabat (in Costa Rica) to fund a Global grant for the development of a free dental clinic to serve the needs of this population. Other local partnering organizations are building the clinic being built on an abandoned city dump by providing dental equipment for that clinic.
Lewisville Morning Rotary provides books for
Central Elementary School Library
For at least 20 years, the Lewisville Morning Rotary Club has been donating at lease 35 library books to the Central Elementary School library. The book titles were selected by the Central ES head librarian and the club purchases the books in July. The books are then signed by our weekly program speakers and then given to the librarian.
Rotary Community Corps (RCCs) are teams of men and women
who work in partnership with Rotary clubs to improve their communities
Membership in an RCC is open to any adult in the community who shares Rotary’s commitment to service but is not a Rotary member. The RCC model is flexible and can mobilize volunteers from all walks of life. Informal meetings typically take place once per month and attendance is not mandatory. This flexibility encourages diversity in membership and allows members to focus solely on service projects. RCCs also provide their members with opportunities to collaborate with Rotarians. Anyone interested in becoming an RCC member can submit an application form here.
