Mark your calendar for April 14th. That is Household Hazardous Waste Collection day. We need 6 to 8 volunteers to help remove waste from the vehicles of Lewisville residents that have come to properly dispose of their Household Hazardous Waste. This is a wonderful environmental project for club members. If you can volunteer please e-mail Todd Taylor.
Tom Rowe and I recently attended the President Elect Training in order to prepare ourselves to lead our fantastic club. In February the club completed a Visioning process and during the month of April we will be finalizing our Strategic Plan complete with time lines and appointed champions for the next 3 years.
The next very important step is for our club leadership to attend the District 5790 Club Leadership Training Assembly on April 22nd at the Tarrant County College NW campus. We would like as many of our members as possible to attend. In particular, those members that will be serving on the Board of Directors and are committee chairs.
The curriculum will include Club Culture covering a wide range of subjects including membership, public image, strategic plan development and other ways of keeping clubs vibrant. Another core curriculum to be covered is Foundation which will include participation at various donation levels and how to prepare district and global grants. The third curriculum is Rotary Technology including use of Rotary Club Central and all it's tools and use of ClubRunner Tools.
You can register here. The club will register and pay for your registration. Please let me know that you plan to attend as soon as possible.
The March 22nd Water Treatment Plant Tour and family picnic was educational and fun.
So, how does UTRWD assure we in Denton County have a safe and plentiful supply fresh water? Last Thursday we found out by moving our weekly meeting to the Upper Trinity Regional Water Plant property.
Supporting The Rotary Foundation helps to improve Water and Sanitation world wide.
We here in Texas are blessed with an infrastructure that makes sure all of us have good clean safe water to sustain us. However, much of the world is not so fortunate. Clubs like ours throughout the world are making a difference by implementing water and sanitation projects that are funded by The Rotary Foundation (TRF).
Did you know that you can give as little as $10 to support such efforts through Rotary Direct? Simply select the Annual Fund you wish to support, the amount you wish to donate, whether your gift is a one time gift or monthly, quarterly or annual. then simply provide your credit or debit card information. For me, it is a budget friendly way of supporting the Rotary Foundation and water projects throughout the world.
Cassandra is the Our Community Matters Program Coordinator. The Our Community Matters Program (OCMP) is focused on providing community education and awareness information/events to the often underserved population of African-American victims and survivors of family violence, domestic violence, or dating violence and their children in the Denton County community.
Each ethnicity or race has its own unique personality and inclination (or not) towards the therapeutic and healing process. As service providers, it is our job to recognize these sensitivities as well as any barriers we contribute that might hinder a successful outcome. The OCMP is designed to help discuss these sensitivities and barriers in a genuine and validating way; this program hopes to shine light onto statistics and conversations that are often not discussed. This program can’t thrive without community partnerships and stakeholders such as churches, businesses, schools, etc.
Cassandra would love to tell you more about Denton County Friends of the Family and the Our Community Matters Program.
