vets dogs  Our guest speaker this week was Glenville Rotarian Jimmy Thomas who spoke about his five-month journey to provide veterans with service dogs. A veteran Army MP himself, Jimmy knows firsthand the difference a service dog can make. His dog, Boots, had been trained to detect and prevent seizures and was remarkably successful, with Thomas going from a couple of seizures a month before Boots to a single episode in the five years. Trained Service Dogs are very expensive, so Thomas raised money from sponsors of his canoe trip from Glenville to Key West and bike ride back to his destination, the Veterans Administration in Albany, NY, with the money raised going to help veterans.If you missed Jimmy’s talk, listen to Jimmy on RadioRotary at: http://www.radiorotary.org/cms/the-long-doggie-paddle-bike-ride-aired-on-sept-18-2022/ (photos by Jonah Triebwasser)

lindaIn Memoriam Linda Greenblatt  It is with deep and genuine regret and sadness that we note the passing of our dear friend and fellow Rotarian Linda Greenblatt. Linda was the daughter of the late Ernest and Ruth (Meisner) Koberlein. Linda married Jay M Greenblatt on June 1, 1969 and Jay survives at home in Red Hook. Linda graduated with BS in 1971 and earned her Master’s in Education in 1974 from SUNY New Paltz. She worked as a History & Social Studies teacher at both Red Hook Middle School and Red Hook High School. Linda was an active member of Delta Kappa Gamma education fraternity. Active in her community, Linda was a member of Red Hook Rotary (where she was recognized as Rotarian of the Year from 2011 to 2014 and was chair of our scholarships and business directory committees), the Red Hook Society for the Detection & Apprehension of Horse Thieves, and the Red Hook Antique Car Club. An astute follower of politics, Linda also served for many years as an election coordinator for Dutchess County Board of Elections.

backpackBackpack Distribution a Great Success! By Linda Greenblatt    Shown in photos in action at the Backpack distribution are Christine Chale, Agatha Bacelar Ariadne Montare, and Interact students Laura and Sarah. Collaboration between Red Hook Rotary, the Hudson Valley Foundation for Youth Health (HVFYH), the Red Hook Methodist Church, and the Dutchess County Alpha Zeta Chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma (DGK) (an International Society for Key Women Educators) in 2021 began with a $750 donation from the HVFYH, Clynk monies from Red Hook Rotary and DKG, plus private donations of school supplies from DKG members. It resulted in the distribution of approximately seventy backpacks for students in grades Pre-K to 12. Distribution was through various food pantries in the Red Hook Central School District. Red Hook Rotary and the Red Hook Rotary Foundation also generously donates $3,000 to Red Hook Harvest annually to alleviate food insecurity for families with children attending the Linden Avenue Middle School and Red Hook High School. Many of the same families express a need for school supplies for their children. In 2022 with a $1,000 donation from Red Hook Rotary, a $1,500 grant from HVFYH, a donation from Deep Roots Construction (Casey Van Voorhis), and Clynk monies from Red Hook Rotary and DKG, Alpha Zeta, over 120 backpacks will be filled to the brim with school supplies (plus a box of tissues, a large tube of toothpaste, and a bamboo recyclable toothbrush!) needed by students to start the 2022-23 academic year. Additionally, Red Hook Rotary has reached out privately to several special needs classroom teachers where there is a need for supplemental school supplies in several local school districts. It should be noted that a donated book has also been placed in each backpack Pre-K-5. Our thanks to the following generous donors who made the backpack program possible:   dkg.org  hvfyh.org  Casey Van Voorhis, 845-240-0448 |

Uncharacteristically camera shy was Judge Jonah Triebwasser, who arrived at Apple Blossom Day a little the worse for wear after a Red Eye flight from Reno, Nevada, where he was working on a traffic safety course for the National Judicial College. Also at Apple Blossom Day were Susan Ezrati and Gwen McCann.Attendees enjoyed the musical acts and Susan Simon and Ariadne Montare danced to the music! (photos by Jennifer Van Voorhis)

The tuition is $175 annually for 6-7 weeks of classes in the spring and fall and 4 weeks in the summer and 4 weeks in the winter – well worth it!

Frank gave us an update on the Stanford Community Day which took place on September 18th, showing the great tee shirt (Stanford, A Caring Community) created for their inclusive initiative. Frank is the Stanford liaison for the Dutchess County Human Rights Commission and spoke about their goals and achievements, enhancing the quality of life in our collective “neighborhood.” He could hear in our Four-Way Test the similarities between what Rotary and the Dutchess County Human Rights Commission stand for.

Molinaro
 Our guest this week was Red Hook resident and Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro. Marc focused his remarks on the 14-months that Dutchess County has led the local effort against the coronavirus. He noted that across the nation, counties have responsibility for the logistical support for public health initiatives and that they carry the financial support for these efforts. Dutchess County entered the crisis in a strong fiscal position, but they anticipated $32,000 loss of revenues due to lower employment, including furloughed workers. In actuality, the county recovered earlier and stronger than anticipated because the local economy bounced back in the fourth quarter of 2020 as home improvement business generated sales tax growth. In addition, the stay-at-home phenomenon resulted in a shift in consumer spending to the county. And a high level of real estate transactions raised mortgage tax revenues for towns and municipalities in the county. As a result of these developments, the county is stronger fiscally than anticipated and is strategically refilling some county jobs. Federal support is needed, that support comes from FEMA. It is anticipated that Dutchess County will receive substantial Federal support over the next two years to cover revenue loss and COVID related spending. During the discussion following Marc’s remarks, the County Executive noted that individual municipalities can reject marijuana sales. That decision, however, has sales tax implications that they should consider. We thanked Marc for updating us on the county and for joining us for the meeting.

tivoli fd
 Our guest speaker this week was Marc Hildebrand, Tivoli’s Fire Chief. Marc reported that Tivoli’s Fire Department now boasts 50 active members and 20 interior fighters, making it the largest department in the northeast region of Dutchess County. He noted that part of the spur to the growth was a fire that took place at Tivoli’s Firehouse over two years ago. That fire nearly destroyed the existing structure, required a temporary structure be placed in the municipal lot, and took a year and a half to repair. It also increased interest in the Fire Company, elicited new volunteers (doubled the size of the company), spurred the Village and the Fire Company to develop a design for a new, improved and expanded firehouse and built enthusiasm for the company. The proposed new structure nearly doubles the size of the building, provides essential improvements, including showers, emergency shelter, community space and needed bay expansion to house some historic fire equipment that is currently stored elsewhere and some new equipment that will enhance the company’s capacity transport firefighters and effectively meet emergencies. The design was developed for the fire company and the Village by Peter Sweeney, a local architect. It not only meets the company’s needs, but also is designed to fit appropriately into the Village’s historic overlay district and within the Historic Landmark District within which the Village is located.

66th anny
66 years of Red Hook Rotary!  Marking the 49th week of “stay at home” meetings required by the coronavirus outbreak, Jennifer Van Voorhis called the Zoom meeting to order at 8 am Fourteen club members attended along with our District Governor Tony Marmo, our assistant district governor, Maureen Gates, our frequent guest/member, Gwen McCann, and the much esteemed, Dan Budd, founder of Red Hook Responds. The meeting marked the 66th anniversary of our club and featured a review of decades of club activities and initiatives. Jen led the meeting off with introductions of all our guests and with some unique versions of our ritual meeting openings. We spoke the pledge of allegiance, and then witnessed a beautiful video of a Tanzanian club’s sung version of the 4-way test. Rev. Michael Shafer offered a blessing to start the meeting. Jen, then, orchestrated a series of member testimonials on activities that marked their experience with Rotary. Susan Simon led off with the story of her first experience of a Rotary district leadership meeting at which she was a disc jockey and dance teacher for a group swing dance. Jonah provided a photo retrospective of club activities since 1955 (which can be seen on our club website), including youth exchange students (Chris Chale) and interact club students (led by Carl Dowden and Linda Greenblatt), Rotary Youth Leadership Academy (founded by Bud Weaver’s dad when he was District Governor and financially supported by the club every year), Apple Blossom Day (organized annually by Dave Wright and Linda Greenblatt), Tree Planting and Aqua Box distributions (maintained by Tim Lynch), Clynk and Food Pantry support (initiated by Jen Van Voorhis) which has contributed $2500 worth of personal hygiene products distributed through the Community Center and food pantries of Red Hook, Radio Rotary which features service above self on local radio stations (Jonah Triebwasser), support of the Library literacy project through purchase of books, Baxter’s Bash, our annual picnic, Youth Wrestling and more. Our district governor, Tony Marmo, provided the history of our club, detailing the many changes in our chartered name and number. He noted that we started in 1955, the 50th anniversary of the national and global organization, with 25 members including John Martin, one of the many Martin’s, still living in Red Hook. The club was started by Herbert J Taylor. He talked about the importance of community based activities in keeping club’s relevant and healthy. The Rotary International Convention will be virtual again this year as will the Highland Club’s Ribfest.

bianca neff  Our guest speaker this week was Bianca Neff, Founder & CEO, Petra Peacebuilders. Bianca has been interested in peacebuilding all of her life. She has dual citizenship in the US and Spain, was educated at the Bradford, UK Peace Center in conflict resolution and is a certified Coach Humanitarian. She is now based in Spain which gives her convenient logistical access to the areas where she works most of the time. Rotary International Peace Centers in the US (Duke University), Sweden, UK, Uganda, Japan, Thailand, and Australia. 1300 Peace Fellows have been fully funded since 2002 by the Rotary International Foundation. Bianca noted that global peacebuilding relies on a system that promotes the resilience of peacebuilders. The focus is on resolving mental health issues that are derived from trauma. To build peace, an organization need resilient people. These people need to be able to care for themselves mentally and emotionally. Many operate in countries that have been at war for decades and generations. Many are impoverished. Many have suffered the trauma of bombs and sexualized violence. Her organization sponsors “Resilience Retreats” for the peacebuilders. Interestingly, Bianca does most of her work remotely, sometimes through apps like zoom, but often via chat rooms that rely on typed responses. Her focus is on working with individuals rather than organizations. In response to the question, “Why did you get into this field?”, Bianca told us that her mother comes from the Basque region of Spain, where conflict has reigned for decades. It was a natural affinity. Bianca spoke very highly of the Rotarian organization, its support and outreach throughout the world.

That club sent the Interact club on a mission to Nicaragua that captured his imagination and set the direction for his life. He told us that the Borgen Project, recently featured on Radio Rotary, is focused on global poverty. It was started by Cliff Borgen in 2003. It now has 3000 members, each reaches out to alleviate poverty in the world. Scott told us that there are 730 million people in extreme poverty and over 800 million additional people experiencing food insecurity. The project uses community education to find ways to alleviate these tragedies. He urged us to go to the website: www. BorgenProject to learn about what they are doing. Jen thanked Scott for his work and told him about the efforts that are being undertaken in Red Hook to feed 200 families weekly.

Fred Cartier, Bud Weaver, Susan Ezrati, Rob Latimer, DG Tony Marmo, ADG Maureen Gates, Michael Shafer, Hon. Jonah Triebwasser, Michael Shafer, Linda Greenblatt, Greg Bolner, Tim Lynch, P.E., Carl Dowden, Rebecca Kent and Susan Simon. Chris Chale, Esq., was missed in the photo but also attended the meeting. Our guest speaker was District Governor Tony Marmo. Tony thanked the Red Hook club for our good work. He noted that we are a high functioning club – with an active Facebook page, a webpage and regularly posted newsletter of our club meetings. He asked each member to participate in recruitment of new members. He noted that recruitment is failing with most clubs. The average age range in clubs has increased while membership numbers have declined by 20%. Recruitment tends to draw people in through service to others and club projects. There are many club models – breakfast clubs, lunch clubs, happy hour clubs, once-a-month clubs, even passport clubs—which draw members in for specific projects. Tony noted that it is important to bring in younger members in order to promote club longevity. Clubs need gender balance as well. He urged us to use Rotary’s positive public image and our fundraising activities to bring in new members. |

red hook repsponds Marking the 12th week of “stay at home” meetings required by the coronavirus outbreak, Jen Van Voorhis opened the “zoom” meeting at 8am. Eleven members and three guests were present. Our guests were Tony Marno, District Governor, Duda Sarapiao, our 2019- 20, our youth exchange student from Brazil, and Elisabeth Harmor our guest speaker. Duda celebrates her 17th birthday today and we gave her a rousing round of “Happy Birthday.”Our District Governor shared how the district is managing in these unusual circumstances. Tony congratulated us on completing our grant application – to support the backpack program and other elements of food security in our community. He said now is a crucial time to support the Rotary International Foundation, which supports the district grants. The district’s focus this year is to grow Rotary’s membership. Tony’s hope is to draw in more younger people. He also spoke about the Highland Club’s annual ribfest. We will hear more as the idea develops, but the Highland Club will be supporting restaurants by selling gift certificates to restaurants as the area begins to open for business post-pandemic. And, Jonah reminded us that we can all participate in this year’s Rotary International convention free via a link that he has provided. Susan Simon introduced our guest speaker, Elisabeth Harmor. Elizabeth has been working with Historic Red Hook, the Red Hook Community Center and the Red Hook Public Library to develop a “virtual” festival in Red Hook this fall. Her powerpoint presentation about this Festival is attached and does a great job of explaining the plans that already are being developed. The club will be identifying ways to participate over the next few weeks. Jonah will interview Elisabeth for Radio Rotary soon. Fred Cartier, photographer, provided the complete group in a single screen shot of the meeting. We are, from top left to bottom right: Jen Van Voorhis, Fred, Tony Marno, Susan Ezrati, Jonah Triebwasser, Tim Lynch, Susan Simon, Elisabeth Harmor, Duda Serapiao, Rob Latimer, Michael Shafer, Chris Chale, Bud Weaver and Rebecca Kent. |

school super Our guests this week were Paul Finch, Superintendent of Red Hook Central Schools and Bruce Martin, Chief Financial Officer.Paul Finch started by noting that in 2019, Dutchess County recognized the Red Hook Schools for the highest graduation rate (97%) in the county. He also noted that a new guidance counselor was added in the Elementary school program and a new smart device policy (designed to reduce cell phone use on campus) was initiated. The budget for the coming year was developed from November to March (pre-pandemic) and anticipated a small increase in State Aid. It also anticipated two capital projects – a new roof and windows at Mill Rd school and new windows and vents at the high school. This was in addition to the building of the auditorium at the high school. The 2021 budget reflects a shift to limit costs using the April State Aid estimate. Paul and Bruce believe that cuts to that aid will come, Efforts are being undertaken to anticipate state aid cuts and a possible no vote on the budget. Staffing cuts are being considered – where opportunities present themselves, as low kindergarten enrollment may enable a cut of one class of first graders, and the retirement of one German teacher and fewer enrollees may enable a smaller German language section. As of May 15, the state has given no guidance about cuts in aid. The governor is waiting for a response from the Federal government. The proposed budget is 2.12% higher than the previous year; the tax levy is up 2.97%, and still tax cap compliant The high school graduation ceremony will take place on June 30 at the Hyde Park drivein theater across from the FDR House and Library. There will be 160 graduates, but the theater only allows 200 cars. The cars will be decorated and horn honking will be encouraged. Rev. Fred Cartier, photographer, provided the complete group in a single screen shot of the meeting. We are, from top left to bottom right: Jen Van Voorhis, Rev. Fred, Bud Weaver, Tim Lynch, Linda Greenblatt, Susan Simon, Bruce Martin, Susan Ezrati, Carl Dowden, Paul Finch, Hon. Jonah Triebwasser, Chris Chale, Rev. Michael Shafer.

Clink! Recycling Report:
2019 was a HUGE success for our Clink recycling program because of our Red Hook community and their generosity along with Bard College, The Elmendorf, Red Hook Library, Red Hook Village Pizza, Classic Cleaners and Bottini employees. In 2019 Red Hook Rotary was able to give out $1505.00 worth of personal care hygiene products to our local food pantries. 100% of funds collected from returnable bottles (glass and plastic) and cans which are bagged in Hannaford Clynk Bags and tagged with a Red Hook Rotary Account Sticker are dropped in the Clynk drop off at Hannaford, is used to purchase Shampoo, Toothpaste, Soap etc. We appreciate all you do to and have set the 2020 goals to $2,000. |

Friends of Guirgho
 Our guests this week were New Paltz Rotarians Bob Rich and Pascal Guirma with their friend Jim Ullrich. They spoke about their special project in the village of Guirgho in Burkina Faso, Africa. Their group, Friends of Guirgho’s mission is to partner with rural schools in Burkina Faso, beginning with the village of Guirgho, to maximize the potential of every student by providing access to state-of-the-art educational tools and technology. Burkina Faso is a small country in western Africa with one of the lowest literacy rates in the world. It is also a place where people are warm and welcoming, where young people routinely greet their elders with gestures of respect, where Muslims and Christians and indigenous religious and ethnic groups live side-by-side and intermarry — a place teeming with life and possibility. Guirgho is a rural village nestled in the center of Burkina Faso. In Guirgho, the challenge for teachers, as in many rural schools, is the lack of resources. Teachers often have to teach up to 80 children with diverse abilities in a single classroom. Text books, when available at all, are often outdated and insufficient in quantity for all students. The primary teaching tool remains the chalk board, on which teachers must write or draw entire lessons. Currently, children in Guirgho attend kindergarten to 12th grade without ever seeing or touching a computer. The prospects for children without basic computer skills in today’s global economy are very limited. Friends of Guirgho believes that greater access to technology will result in a larger pool of potential innovators able to meet the challenges facing their families, their communities, their country, and the world. The centerpiece of Friends of Guirgho’s vision is a computer center that will incorporate space for computer assisted instruction for teachers and students. During non-school hours, adult members of the village may also use the facility to advance their education. Our objective is to help enhance the existing curriculum and see where we can be of support to the teachers and students. All of Friends of Guirgho’s efforts will result in a template that can be scaled, replicated, and implemented throughout the country and beyond. In addition to the computer center, the plan includes: • Construction of a workshop, with tools and training, to enable students to learn how to repair desks and develop trade skills that can be used for other school and/or village-related projects with, perhaps, income potential; • A school garden to help feed the students and grow additional produce that could bring in supplemental income for the school; • Cotton spinning, which is a traditional but dying craft in the village. Friends of Guirgho can support its revival, thereby generating and stimulating a market for weaving; • Establishing a preschool to provide young children with essential pre-literacy experiences.

Historic Red Hook
 Our first guest this week, thanks to speaker host Susan Simon, was Doug Strawinski of Historic Red Hook who led off the meeting with a description of the wonderful changes that have taken place between the Elmendorf Inn and the “new” Cherry Street property. A shed to the CVS side of the property has been removed. Parking has been shifted to the east side of the property and a wonderful new green is installed to the east side of the Inn. Hardscrabble initiated the use of this green with apple bobbing, games and lots of apple pies. The board asked Doug to look into the purchase of small, portable stage that can be broken down and used inside and out for various activities. A suitable stage has been identified: composed of three 4’ by 8’ sections, it expands to 16 by 8 and is constructed of steel with a poly surface that can sustain getting wet. It clips together for stability and comes with a 10-year warranty. Historic Red Hook hopes that Rotary will consider funding a portion of the $1,866 cost as a gift to the community.  We then greeted our additional guests, Chris and Claudine Klose and Susan Goodman Goldstein and Manny Carel. Claudine spoke about how the new “green” at Elmendorf would be used and how the adjacent Cherry St property is being developed as a “story studio”. 120 fourth graders have been through it this fall and had their lunch on the green! Historic Red Hook’s neighbor, KZE is also excited about the new outdoor space. On a question from a Rotarian, Claudine updated us on the progress of the HRH capital campaign. In consequence of a generous offer from the prior owner of the Cherry Street property, HRH now owns the property and has a much reduced mortgage which they anticipate that the capital campaign will enable them to extinguish. So far in the three year capital campaign $100,000 of the needed $160,000 has been pledged.  Susan and Manny were visiting from California where Susan is a Rotarian. She was a member of our club for several years. (photos by Rev. Fred Cartier)

school budget  Photos taken by Rotarian Rev. Fred Cartier. Pictured here are Josh Bardfield of the Red Hook Library (left, Tim Lynch seated) and Barry Ramage, President RH (center) and Bruce Martin, representing the Red Hook Central School District (far right).May 7, 2019 was a regular club meeting at Cancun’s in Red Hook from 7:30 to 8:30 am. Fifteen members, 83% of our membership attended. With the school budget and related matters coming up for approval by voters registered in Red Hook, on May 21, 2019, our speakers were Josh Bardfield of the Red Hook Library Board and Bruce Martin, representing the Red Hook Central School District. Josh explained that budgetary increases for both the Red Hook Library and the Tivoli Libraries would be on the ballot at the May 21 election. The Red Hook Library is requesting a 3.25% increase in their budget line. He noted that Library usage, programming, and wireless usage are up this year. The Library is housed in an historic building that requires constant maintenance and restoration. Finally, the state has increased the minimum wage by 38%, which impacts the Library’s operating budget. The Library has secured more than $53,000 in grants, this year but still needs the increase in tax revenue to maintain its current level of service. He urged the club members to vote in favor of the Library request on May 21. Bruce Martin presented an outline of changes in the Central School district’s budget. While the current budget is enjoying a brief reduction in its debt levels, revenues also drop by nearly the same amount. The balance of the budgetary year will experience a 2.61% increase, but remain under the tax cap. He noted that the incoming kindergarten class will be a full class size smaller and that those savings will go to resources aimed at meeting increased emotional/social needs. No new programs will be introduced. Voters can still register at the Mill Road School, during school hours. The election will take place from noon to 9pm also at the Mill Road School. Several initiatives will seek voter approval, including the annual increase in expenditure for buses, two new school board candidates (uncontested), election of this year’s student representative to the Board and an opportunity to place solar panels on the school roof. The later are only cost-effective if combined with State Aid – which should be forthcoming. Bruce also updated the club on the construction of the auditorium. The project will be tight to its budget despite cost-effective, value-engineered plans. State Assemblyman, Kevin Cahill, is seeking to provide $500,000 in state grants to the project and the Red Hook Education Foundation may offer and additional $100,000. This project will be the subject of a special vote on June 18. All additional expenses are tax-cap compliant. Absentee ballots are available in the District Clerk’s office. |

Our guest speakers this week were Sadie Bloch and Anabel DiMartino – co-presidents of Interact, and Miranda beer, also an officer of the club. The students spoke about their efforts to raise funds for Shelter Boxes. This year they have baked pies and sold them for Thanksgiving, made cookies and candy forValentine’s Day, solicited donations for a raffle from local businesses (over $300!), andserved dinner and waited tables at the Rotary Citizen of the Year dinner. They then spoke of the popularity of the club at school, noting that their events were well attended and that many clubs suffered from conflicts with sports. They brainstormed ways to boost membership and came up with the idea of painting the tables outside the school. They also solicit at new recruits at freshman orientation, by word of mouth,by tapping friends of friends and wear identifying T-shirts. Each speaker then spoke of their post-graduation plans. Two of the students plan to study film and Connecticut College and Wesleyan University respectively, the third student is still finalizing her plans. Barry presented the Interact Club with a Rotary Service Certificate, memorializing 7-years of successful fundraising for Shelter Boxes. From left to right are Barry Ramage (club President), Linda Greenblatt (Interact sponsor), Anabel DiMartino, Miranda Beer, Sadie Bloch and Carl Dowden (also an Interact sponsor).

molinaro
Following his comments, the County Executive took questions, covering such topics as changes in the cash bail system and the need for bipartisan cooperation in local government. Commenting on his experience in running for governor he noted that the biggest difference between issues down-state and up-state is that downstaters were preoccupied with transit systems and corruption, while upstaters were focused on property taxes and corruption.

aquaboxTWO MONTHS IN THE LIFE OF…...  Cast your minds back to late August this year. Can you recall headlines that hit our national press? They recounted disturbing stories of hundreds of thousands of citizens in Kerala, Southern India, literally being washed out of their homes as a result of devastating floods? .png) As this was happening, thousands of miles away, this time SW Cameroon, in Africa, innumerable numbers of citizens were being displaced, their villages burned down, violence perpetrated against them by the military under the control of the government. These villagers had no option other than to live in the bush as their physical communities no longer existed. Did you even know this was happening? .png) Then press headlines once more took centre stage. At the end of September, Typhoon Omphong (Mangkhut) hit the northern region of the Philippines, triggering flash floods, storm surges and wholesale landslides. Over a quarter of a million people were displaced; over 100 lost their lives. Health centres were unable to function and so the situation progressively worsened. And finally, in our two month Aquabox odyssey, came the news that a massive earthquake and tsunami hit Indonesia, centred around the city of Palu. Almost 900 people lost their lives, many buried in massed graves to prevent the spread of disease. Other stories emerged detailing suffering too harrowing to report here. Here are are some common factors in all these tragedies: The lives of individuals and whole communities can be destroyed in a frighteningly short time. The health of citizens is immediately at risk and access to safe drinking water is of paramount importance. In each of the above human catastrophes, Aquabox was instrumental in providing meaningful, immediate and sustainable support. It supplied water purification filters and other items of humanitarian aid, all of which was distributed, securely and appropriately by our long-standing partners on the ground. (Rotary International in particular, was well placed for accurate assessment of need.) The water filters despatched from our Wirksworth depot in the past two months alone, have the capacity to provide drinking water to over 35,000 needy citizens in some of the world’s most devastated areas. Since the filters can function for several years, this output may continue way beyond the immediate need. (The output of these filters could mean 1700 litre plastic bottles per minute no longer enter our environment.) Without clean drinking water, people suffer from the most debilitating diseases and this significantly impacts on their ability to rebuild and regenerate their communities and local economies. We, at Aquabox, are extremely proud of what we achieve. We are a truly volunteer led charity with no ‘fat cat’ board of directors. Our 70+ volunteers are our engine-room and quite simply without them we could not do what we do. We rely TOTALLY on donations to continue our life-saving work. Can you help? If you feel you are able to support us, details of how to do this can be found on our website www.aquabox.org Alternatively cheques payable to Aquabox can be sent to Aquabox, PO Box 5398, Matlock, Derbyshire DE4 4ZP In particular, we would welcome corporate sponsorship. Please contact us if this is of interest. Find out more about our work on our Facebook page or come along to see us at work at our depot. You can book in a trip through our website. We would welcome your interest. |

DG visit
This week we had our official visit from District Governor Christine Giangrasso. Chrissy inspired us with her description of Rosie the Riveter – as depicted by Norman Rockwell. She encouraged us to undertake the following: Create a Rotaract Club at Bard College, Join with other Rotary clubs in activities. Seek to think “out of the box” about club possibilities. She noted that October 24th is World Polio Day and challenged every club in our district to donate $100 to the End Polio Campaign – noting that with 55 clubs in the district we could give $5500 to the campaign which would be doubled by the Gates Foundation.

Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA)
This week, three of the five students who attended RYLA spoke of their experiences. Cian Ryan, Raquel Gifford and Jacqueline Kocik all said it was a great experience. They all learned more about their leadership skills and how to use those skills. When they arrived at RYLA they did not know what to expect. The “high energy” level of the RYLA leaders got them excited right away.
One speaker who made a big impression on the students was a young woman who suffered a traumatic brain injury in high school a few years ago. RYLA students and their parent pictured with Past President Tim Lynch and Linda Greenblatt. (photos by Rev. Fred Cartier) |

fred retiremnet Our own Rev. Fred Cartier was the speaker this week. He gave an interesting talk about planning for retirement. Not so much from a financial standpoint, but from an emotional standpoint. He said one day you are going to leave your job...what are you going to do the next day?Fred suggested starting now to think about and plan what you will do when you retire. Making a daily schedule for yourself and then be sure to do at least two things from that schedule. Something that may help you decide what you may want to do in retirement Fred heard at a seminar about retirement. The speaker asked everyone in the audience to write down in one brief sentence “who you are without making reference to your job or your family”. Fred referenced statistics about how people’s health deteriorates after they retire if they have nothing to do. Many die in a short period of time as well. So start now thinking about what you will do after you retire. Go to the library and read books; take advantage of education programs that are offered for retirees like those offered at Bard College; expand a hobby; whatever, just make a plan to do something! |

October 17th Rotary Meeting.JPG) Our speaker this week was Robert Shoemaker, CEO of Professional Computer Associates (PCA). He was accompanied by his firm’s Marketing Director, Theresa Mulkins. Bob provided us with a crash course in Phishing 101. In summary, we need to be cautious about all emails because looks can be deceiving. Bob shared some hints: 1) If the message in the email sounds too good to be true, it probably is. 2) Look at the email address of the sender; if it is not from the business or person supposedly sending you the email do not open. 3) If the email contains a "link" to a webpage, hover your mouse pointer over the link and the actual address will appear, don't click it if it doesn't look correct. 4) If the subject line contains RE: and it is not coming from someone you have been communicating with, don't open the email. 5) Last but not least, when creating passwords make sure they are easy to remember and don't contain any personal information.

August 22, 2017 Club Meeting Our guest speaker this week was our very own Rob Latimer who recently vacationed with his family in the small village of Hopkins in Belize. Rob wanted to attend a local Rotary club meeting only to learn they take the Summer off. He did however make a connection with Wendy Miller a local resident & Real Estate broker who is looking to start a club in Hopkins. Wendy’s Father was a Rotarian and this is what inspired her to start a local club. Rob spent a couple of hours sharing with her all the great work Rotary International does as well as the great work our own local rotary chapter performs here in Red Hook. He learned the village has no potable water, and the local park was a rotary sponsored project with a club from Canada. We are discussing ideas on how we might be able to act as a “mentoring” club with the Hopkins club and perhaps even with help with sponsoring an Aquabox (approx. $300.) to provide a water filtration system to the village. To learn more about Rotary International and how we’re an ambassador for Aquabox visit http://www.aquabox.org/As Rotary is dedicated to permanently ending polio, another unique Rotary connection was made when Rob visited a local market in San Ignacio where he fell in love with a painting. He learned the artist, Oscar Ulin, suffers with polio and can't use his hands so he paints with his mouth. See Oscar’s story at: https://www.facebook.com/LowerDover/videos/1416850208347352/ In photo: Rob Latimer and President Tim Lynch (photo by Rev. Fred Cartier) Rob further reports: " The park built in Hopkins through a combined effort between the Rotary Club of Dangriga and a club from Canada has fallen into disrepair. Also, without any lighting, parents won't allow kids to play there after sunset.  The newly formed satellite club of Hopkins is going to raise the money needed to repair the park and add lighting, bringing the park up to safety standards and creating a village-center focal point for children to play and socialize. Artist Oscar Ulin has limited use of his hands due to polio, and paints at the San Ignacio market using his mouth to hold the brush. I will have one of his works back from the framer shortly. Four generations of Latimers (twelve of us from 71 down to 1 year old) made the trip to Hopkins. Meeting the founders of the newly-forming Hopkins Rotary Club was a highlight of the trip. I look forward to exploring the possibilities for partnering with this new satellite club, as soon as they have their approval from RI." |

Rotary Welcomes Our District & Assistant GovernorWelcome Rotary District 7210 District Governor Jim Damiani District Governor Jim made his official visit to our club today. He was introduced by Region 3 Assistant Governor Rose Shaffer. District Governor Jim commented on the beauty of our new meeting location, which is a former church with beautiful stained glass windows. He thanked us for being Rotarians. Rotary helps the vulnerable, voiceless people of the world. When DG Jim first joined Rotary we were embarking on a project called Polio Plus. At that time there were 7,000 new cases of polio each week. There have been 35 new cases so far this year or about 1 per week. Bill Gates addressed Rotarians at the recent International Convention in Atlanta, GA. He said about $1.5 billion is needed to complete eradication of polio in the world. He pledged $400 million from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. DG Jim said that by the end of the convention $1.2 billion had been received in pledges. That leaves $300 million for Rotary to raise. Rotary International President Ian Riseley has asked every Rotary Club to hold a special event to raise money for Polio Plus and to raise public awareness of Polio. DG Jim told us that RI President Ian Riseley is very concerned about the environment. He is concerned about climate change around the world. RI President Ian has asked every Rotarian to plant a tree.  |

ryla
Our guest speakers were two of the three Red Hook High School sophomores (soon to be juniors) who attended the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards conference at the end of June. Syr, Katelin and Colin attended the conference. Colin was on vacation this week and unfortunately could not be with us this morning. Syr and Katelin both said it was a great experience attending RYLA. Both girls mentioned that they did not get placed in the activity group of their choice which made them feel uneasy and out of their comfort zone. Katelin wanted to be in the engineering group, but was placed in the skit/comedy group. Syr wanted to be in the graduation planning group, but was placed in the chorus. They learned the importance of working together on a team or in a group. They learned members of the team or group have different personalities and play different roles, but every member is important to the team as a whole. Both felt it was a growth experience for them.

RI Theme
New RI Theme Announced!
Rotary’s founder, Paul Harris, believed that serving humanity is “the most worthwhile thing a person can do,” RI President-elect John F. Germ said, and that being a part of Rotary is a “great opportunity” to make that happen. Germ unveiled the 2016-17 presidential theme, Rotary Serving Humanity, to incoming district governors on 18 January at the International Assembly in San Diego, California, USA. “I believe everyone recognizes the opportunity to serve Rotary for what it truly is: not a small opportunity, but a great one; an opportunity of a lifetime to change the world for the better, forever through Rotary’s service to humanity,” said Germ. Rotary members around the globe are serving humanity by providing clean water to underdeveloped communities, promoting peace in conflict areas, and strengthening communities through basic education and literacy. But none more important than our work to eradicate polio worldwide, he said. After a historic year in which transmission of the wild poliovirus was stopped in Nigeria and all of Africa, Germ said we are closer than ever to ending polio. “We are at a crossroads in Rotary,” he added. “We are looking ahead at a year that may one day be known as the greatest year in Rotary’s history: the year that sees the world’s last case of polio.” Last year’s milestones leave just two countries, Afghanistan and Pakistan, where the virus still circulates. Polio would be only the second human disease ever to be eradicated. When that moment arrives, it’s “tremendously important” that Rotary is ready for it, said Germ. “We need to be sure that we are recognized for that success, and leverage that success into more partnerships, greater growth, and even more ambitious service in the decades to come.” Germ, a member of the Rotary Club of Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA, encouraged attendees to return to their clubs and communities and spread the word about Rotary’s role in the fight for a polio-free world. “People who want to do good will see that Rotary is a place where they can change the world. Every Rotary club needs to be ready to give them that opportunity,” Germ said. Enhancing Rotary’s image isn’t the only way to boost membership. “We need clubs that are flexible, so our service will be more attractive to younger members, recent retirees, and working people.” He added: “We need more willing hands, more caring hearts, and more bright minds to move our work forward.”

Bud on RI Foundation.JPG) Our speaker this week was our own Bernard H. "Bud" Weaver, Jr.,Previously it was mentioned that there is a change to Rotary's Every Rotarian Every Year. It was thought that every Rotarian would have to become a sustaining member (donate at least $100 per year) for our club to meet this goal. Bud contacted a representative at the RI Foundation and they were not aware of this new requirement. Bud is looking into this further and will let us know. Bud reported that according to Rotary International records donations from our club members is quite low to date. Bud encouraged our members to begin making your donations to the Foundation now rather than waiting until June 2016. If you donate $10 to $20 per month you will easily become a sustaining member of the Foundation by the end of this Rotary year. Some club members are very close to obtaining their first Paul Harris Fellowship and others are close to moving to the next level. Contact Bud to find out your level on contributions. Every member is supposed to go to rotary.org/myrotary;to view their profile and learn about Rotary. You can also make a donation to the Rotary Foundation from your MyRotary account. It is easy to set up your account. You need your Rotary member number that can be found on the mailing label of The Rotarian magazine. |

Abby in Italy - 1We've heard from out outbound exchange student Abby Romm. Here is her first report of her adventures in Italy:
Ciao Jonah!
Italy is beyond amazing. All my expectations were blown out of the water in the best way possible. My host family is so nice and I'm getting along so well with them, especially my sister.
 The 1st photo is from the day I arrived, and we took a break from driving to take a picture. I was so tired because I didn't get any sleep on the plane but I was too excited to sleep in the car.
 2nd: Me with my host dog Toby! I finally have a dog.
 3rd: I biked into town with my host mom and she took this picture. Representing Red Hook!
4th: Taken yesterday on my first Rotary weekend with my district!  5th: At the sea in Sarzana with my district. The water was an incredible blue.
 6th: Pizza!
 7th: A shot of Cuneo from my Italian nonna's house.
 8th: Gelato! My personal favorites are cioccolato e nocciola- chocolate and hazelnut.
Sincerely,
Abby |

Natilie Jackson
Our speaker this week: Susan Goodman Goldstein brought us an excellent speaker (not that our other speakers are not excellent as well), Natalie Jackson, PhD. Natalie came to this area to work for the polling group at Marist College. In May, Natalie left Marist and started working for the Huffington Post in their polling division (formerly Pollster.com). Natalie is a Senior Data Scientist. Her work currently involves collecting polling results from the various polling companies for a particular political race, analyzing the results and summarizing the results in a chart to give an overview of all the polling data. She spoke about the many factors that need to be considered when conducting a poll. When analyzing poll results you need to know who was polled; what questions were asked, and how many people were polled. Our members asked Natalie many questions, which is a sign of a job well done! Susan distributed a flyer to the members present, a copy of which can be found here: https://clubrunner.blob.core.windows.net/00000002251/en-us/files/homepage/running-for-glenn-goldstein-part-1/Fred team 1.pdf and https://clubrunner.blob.core.windows.net/00000002251/en-us/files/homepage/running-for-glenn-goldstein-part-2/Fred team 2.pdf relating to Natalie Jackson running in the NYC Marathon November 2. Natalie is running to raise funds for Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, in memory of Glenn Goldstein. When you read Natalie’s story of her friendship with Glenn, you remember the great person we lost. |

New Rotary Theme for 2014 - 2015
RI President-elect Gary C.K. Huang chose Light Up Rotary as his theme for 2014-15. Huang was inspired by the teachings of Chinese philosopher Confucius who said: "It is better to light a single candle, than to sit and curse the darkness."
"There are so many problems in the world, so many people who need help. Many people say, 'There's nothing I can do.' So they sit there doing nothing. Meanwhile everything stays dark," Huang told the 537 district governors and their spouses and partners who are attending the 2014 International Assembly in San Diego, California. "The Rotary way is the Confucius way. The Rotary way is to light a candle. I light one, you light one, 1.2 million Rotarians light one. Together, we light up the world," said Huang, who is a member of the Rotary Club of Taipei in Taiwan.

It is with deep and genuine regret and sorrow that we note the passing of our senior member and past-president, The Reverend Fred Cartier.
Our guest speaker this week was Emily Sachar, Publisher and Editor of “The Red Hook Daily Catch.” She first informed us that her Grandfather was a Rotarian! Emily spoke of her background prior to establishing the Red Hook Daily Catch and the goal for her publication – to be a legitimate and high quality newspaper. She is striving to get at least one “Fresh Story” published daily in the newsletter format. When The Red Hook Daily Catch first started there were a little more than 100 readers – as of 9/21 there are over 1,380 subscribers. Red Hook is no longer a “news desert.” We then had a discussion about how the paper has developed and what we would like to see developed in the future. The Red Hook Daily Catch will always be a non-partisan newspaper and Emily is actively training her staff (including two young journalists in training) how to edit the words or handle details that can be interpreted as partisan.
Red Hook Rotary continues to distribute masks as part of Rotary's Million Mask Challenge. Here Rotarian Linda Greenblatt donates masks to the Red Hook Central Schools. The masks were accepted, with thanks, by School Superintendent Janet Warden.
Speaker host, President-elect Jennifer Van Voorhis, welcomed Raymond Iaia, Esq., of McCabe and Colman. Raymond is a litigator for the firm, specializing is personal injury cases. He was a compelling speaker and led off his talk by telling us the details of the suit against McDonalds by a Canadian woman scalded by their coffee. The example illustrated that we often don’t know all of the details of high-profile cases. He was correct! Mr. Iaia is happy to be a Red Hook resident. His wife owns Half Moon books in Tivoli.

There was no formal program, just good conversation, good food, and good company. Photos above of the event taken by Fred Cartier. Fifteen Rotarians attended. Including spouses we were a group of 17!.JPG)

Our guest speajker this week was Juliet Harrison who gave us a history of the artist gallery and other exhibits that she has founded and then set free in Red Hook. Her first endeavor was in Tivoli. There she set up the Tivoli Artist Coop, with the generosity of Martin Clarke the owner of the building who offered a low rent to help the enterprise get started. She then spent some time working with the Red Hook Chamber of Commerce – headed at the time by Ed Pruit – promoting writers, theater and Dance. A little later, she worked with a group of artists to create a can opener at the FireHouse in Red Hook. CAN is an anagram for Cooperative Artists Network. These efforts included activities with the schools and identified some special world renowned artists in the community including, Brice Marden, Travis Louis, Lisa Donnelly and author Carol Goodman. More recently, seeing the large number of unrented buildings in Red Hook’s center (following the Real Estate downturn nationwide) the Red Hook Can group shifted strategies by putting Pop Up Galleries in the unrented spaces, drawing attention to the spaces and in many instances resulting in permanent businesses taking over the space. She is a real friend to Red Hook. Shown in the photo are club president Barry Ramage, speaker host Susan Ezrati and 
Our guest speaker this week, Marc Molinaro, was introduced as “soccer coach”, youngest mayor in America, gubernatorial candidate, assemblyman and now Dutchess County Executive. Marc reviewed his seven years in office, noting some of his proudest achievements. He noted that the county’s fiscal position is much improved its bond rating is the highest in the state, The county’s improved economic status has been led by strong growth in tourism. The county has undertaken new initiatives in natural resource protection, protecting over 3000 acres of farmland. Bridges are being refurbished through.out the county, and mental health services have been substantially increased and improved. .JPG)
