Club Meeting of March 12

The meeting was called to order by club president, Nick Wladyczak. Guests were recognized. Our guests included our speakers as well as Rich Mueller from the Barberton Herald and Jim Sawin from the Lake Anna YMCA. Nick reminded club members of the upcoming District 6630 -4 Way Test Speech Contest and our local test to be held on March 26. We will have contestants from Manchester High School. The other upcoming event will be the Scholarship Awards and 4 Cities Compact Recognition Breakfast to be held on Friday, May 15 at 7:30am at the Summa Barberton Hospital Cafeteria.

Treasurer Vic Meyers asked club members to support the Library Levy- #9 on the May ballot by going to the website, getting a yard sign.

Happy Dollars and 50/50 were collected.

Our speakers were Nancy and Julianne from Steele Academy. I had asked Brenda for background on how she found out about this need. The following is her reply: They called our administrative assistant in the Community Impact department of United Way of Summit County and asked if there were any organizations that would be willing to help Lily get a bike for Christmas. When she asked me, I thought that was right up our ( Rotary Club of Barberton) alley, since our framework is children with special needs. So I brought it to the club/board and asked if we would help out.
