March 22, 2018 is the UN World Water Day. Unlike many parts of our world a safe and plentiful water supply is taken for granted in Denton County. So, to celebrate, we will be moving the time and place of our regular March 22nd meeting Rotary meeting to the Upper Trinity Water Plant on 900 N. Kealy in Lewisville. This is a family event! Our Meeting start time will be 5 PM. The outdoor business meeting will start promptly at 5:15 pm with our normal Rotary moment of inspiration, pledge and happy thoughts, followed by some very brief business matters that President Jeff may need to announce. At 5:30 PM Rich Lubke and a few members of the Upper Trinity Water Treatment plan will do a very interesting short presentation followed by a tour of the Water Plant itself. After the Water Plant Tour, we will convene the Rich Lubke Community Organic Garden for a family picnic where members will be serving our families Hot Dogs and Hamburgers with all the fixins prepared from the Salvation Army Emergency Canteen.
In addition to the water plant tour, the families will have an opportunity to visit the Rotary Demonstration Aquaponic Grow Bed.
This will be a fun evening for the entire family regardless of age complete with some age appropriate games like name that plant and name that vegetable. We will wrap-up around 7:30 pm which is before dark which Google says is 7:58 pm.
We have had a wonderful response to Saturday's Visioning 60% if our membership committed to participating. There is still time to register, see link below.
What is your vision for Lewisville Morning Rotary Club in 2021?
Make a Difference by joining fellow members February 17th at Wines with an Appeal.
Two weeks ago, PDG Gene Davenport left each club member with a homework assignment to bring to the Feb 17th Visioning Session for our 3 year Strategic Plan. Is your homework done yet? It is important that every member complete the homework regardless if they can attend the Feb 17 visioning session. If you can't make it, please send me your completed form so that I can share it with those that are there and your ideas are included in plan development. You can download the homework by clicking here.
On Saturday, Feb 17, 2018, club membership will see into the future at Wine with Appeal on 917 N Mill St in Lewisville. No, we will not be using a crystal ball. But we will be visioning.
To continue as a vibrant successful Rotary club, members need to plan not for just tomorrow or next month but at least 3 years into the future. This year (2017-2018), our club is completing the third year of a Strategic Plan that was developed in the spring of 2015. Well done Strategic Plans take a lot of effort and require input from as many members as possible.
Have you started our homework yet? On Jan 18th, PDG Gene Davenport did an excellent presentation introducing Visioning at our club meeting. He left us with some homework to complete prior to coming to the Feb 17th meeting. Click Feb 17 Visioning Exercise to download a copy of the homework. Bring it with you Feb 17. We want everyone to attend, but if your schedule prohibits attendance, please send your completed copy to me at ray.bowens@yahoo.com
