When the well’s dry, we know the worth of water.
~ Benjamin Franklin
Our lunch meeting this week brought home the importance of clean water in our lives. Dr. Kenny Fink provided a timely update about the Red Hill Water Crisis. Fellow RCOH member Dr. Chris Puttock shared information about a new partnership between Rotary and the UN to work with local communities and partners to protect, restore and sustain freshwater ecosystems.

Come prepared with your questions!
February is going to be a great month with some exciting ways to engage with your fellow Rotarians and give back to the community! We will be trying out a new concept at our lunch meeting next week.
Former Governor Neil Abercrombie will be our guest. We will be hosting a
Conversation with Neil Abercrombie. Instead of a formal presentation, this is a great opportunity to come ask questions and engage in dialogue with this influential leader in our community.
Connect with new and old friends!
We have Paul Harris week with some fabulous hosts. Paul Harris week is a throwback to the foundations of Rotary when meetings rotated between members’ offices to facilitate fellowship. The concept behind Paul Harris week is to celebrate our members’ vocations and provide an opportunity for members to deepen their relationships with each other. Instead of meeting at the OCC, we meet at each other's homes, businesses or in the community.
Make a difference...and new friends!
RAT Pack is getting us ready for the big RYSE service project.
Reese Liggett is recruiting 2-8 volunteers who can pitch in Mondays, Thursdays or Saturdays to do initial site prep. Work starts at 8:30am. Stay as long as you can. Learn to use cool tools you never dreamed of and be proud of it! These projects are a great way to serve the community and deepen friendships with fellow Rotarians.
