Below are the meeting notes from the July 17th meeting:
 
Bill Gurney gave the opening words.
 
 
Bob Schaumann, Sam LaFortune, and Travis Kumpf gave a talk about the $45,000 district grant from Rotary International that the Jaffery Rotary Club has applied for use in Nicaragua for the purpose of buying schoolbooks as well as building and repairing school buildings.  Bob, Sam, and Travis are appealing local Rotary Clubs for support to help raise funds for the project and pointed out that donations for the project will be matched $3.50 for every dollar donated by Rotary Foundation.  FNE International and Just Hope are the organizations on the ground in Nicaragua that will work on the projects using local builders and Highschool volunteers to do the work on the school projects in the town of Chacraseca, just outside of León .  The political situation in Nicaragua is of concern as recent trips by students have been postponed because of safety concerns, however current projects have not been affected.
 
  1. Brentwood Camp meeting is on August 13th.
  2. District Golf Tournament August 18 at Brentwood, Keene.
  3. Board meeting at the Dublin General Store at 7:30AM on July 18th.
 
I look forward to seeing you on Tuesday at Dublin School.
