SUMMARY:"Still Doing what he Loves after 20 Years!" (Offsite location)
DESCRIPTION:Joe Fugere – Founder / Owner\nTutta Bella This morning Joe Fugere will speak on Tutta Bella’s journey from one Tutta Bella Neapolitan Pizzaria restaurant to seven as well as a food production company with a total of 400 employees. Everyone will have a chance to enjoy an Italian breakfast! Our meeting will be offsite at the Tutta Bella Neapolitan Pizzeria’s newly renovated location at Crossroads Shopping Center\, 15600 NE 8th Street\, Bellevue.  \nAbout the Speaker\nJoe Fugere is the founder of Tutta Bella\, the Pacific Northwest’s first certified authentic Neapolitan pizzeria. Joe opened his first restaurant in 2004 and currently has seven locations in and around Seattle. The seventh location has just reopened in Bellevue at 156th Ave. NE and NE 8th after being used a food production location since shortly after Covid started. The food production for “Grab and Go” items has moved to South Seattle. The success of Joe’s business can be attributed to a passionate focus on building a meaningful business respected by employees\, customers and peers and he works tirelessly on creating shared value for these constituents. \nIn August 2010\, Joe had the honor of being selected to represent small business owners in a meeting with President Obama. One month later he was invited to the White House for the signing of the 2010 Small Business Lending Act\, at which time the President recognized Tutta Bella for its contribution to economic recovery. That same year\, Tutta Bella beat out 33\,000 of its peers nationally by being named “Independent Pizzeria of the Year” and received “Business of the Year” recognition by the Greater Seattle Business Association. \nTutta Bella restaurants have received recognition from every business chamber to which they belong. The company has been named “Best of” in multiple trade and culinary publications and the Harvard Business School recognized Tutta Bella as one of America’s 100 fastest growing “Inner City” businesses. The company aspires to nourish lives by sharing traditions\, authentic food\, and love. \nThank you\, John Martinka for securing this speaker!

SUMMARY:"Washington's Efforts to Create the Nation's First Commission of Boys and Men"
DESCRIPTION:Blair Daly and Valerie Tarico  – Grassroots Advocates & Writers\nWashington Initiative for Boys and Men (WIBM)\nA growing bipartisan group of state legislators have been trying for three years to get a bill passed establishing a Washington Commission of Boys and Men. Blair Daly and Valerie Tarico\, leaders in the grassroots movement backing this effort\, will present the case for a government commission tasked with improving the well-being of Washington’s boys\, male youth\, and men. They’ll describe barriers to success so far and ideas for succeeding with this groundbreaking legislative effort going forward. Males in Washington are more likely to be homeless\, to die by suicide\, to overdose on drugs\, to end up in youth detention and prisons\, to fail to complete high school\, to lack a parent of the same sex in their house when growing up\, to lack access to their children when they are parents\, to be seriously injured or killed while earning money\, and they are underrepresented in some professions of public importance\, like teaching\, social work\, and mental healthcare. \nAbout the Speaker\nBlair Daly is the founder of Washington Initiative for Boys and Men (WIBM)\, which does advocacy journalism and grassroots political organizing focused on boys and men’s issues. WIBM initiated the grassroots campaign urging the legislature to create a state commission focused on improving the well-being of Washington’s boys\, male youth\, and men. A total of 14 legislators sponsored the bill in 2024\, which was the bill’s third year of falling short of getting a public hearing. Among the sponsors of the commission on boys and men bill\, over half are women\, and there are equal numbers of Democrats and Republicans. Blair grew up in Bellevue and played baseball and jazz drums at Newport High School. He holds a Master of Public Administration degree from the University of Washington\, and for his day job he works on transportation programs for the City of Kirkland. \nValerie Tarico has a PhD in counseling psychology. She headed the Children’s Behavior and Learning Clinic at Seattle Children’s in Bellevue before opening a private practice focused on children and families and then transitioning to focus on writing and advocacy. She is a co-founder of the Progress Alliance of Washington and has served on nonprofit boards with a focus on broad\, durable prosperity and women’s health. It is through these roles that she has become increasingly concerned about the challenges facing young men and boys.

SUMMARY:"May Contain Tree Nuts": A Master Arborists Perspective on Arboriculture\, in General.
DESCRIPTION:John Huddleston – Board Certified Master Arborist\nSavATree\nJohn Huddleston\, Resident Rotarian and Board Certified Master Arborist will explain the science of Arboriculture\, as he practices it. He will provide tips for what tree owners can do themselves to promote a healthy landscape\, and what they should leave to professionals like his team at SavATree. \nAbout the Speaker\nJohn Huddleston is a recent transplant to the Pacific Northwest from the mile high mountain community of Idyllwild\, above Palm Springs. He has been a tree enthusiast since a young child\, climbing to the tops of cedars to sway in the wind with the birds and squirrels. As a self-identified Lorax\, he began his career slowing the spread of pine bark beetles in the San Bernardino National Forest and became a Certified Arborist in 2006. During the financial crisis in ’08\, John relocated to Marin County\, CA to take on the virulent spread of Sudden Oak Death. It was here that he was mentored by the two very first Certified Arborists\, Mike Green and Dave Anderson\, as well as noteworthy PhD\, Tom Smiley\, who literally wrote the books on Arboriculture. John became a Board Certified Master Arborist in 2015\, and a Registered Consulting Arborist in 2017\, joining the ranks of less than 100 professionals in North America to hold both of these high credentials simultaneously.\nJohn married the love of his life\, his lovely wife April who is also a Certified Arborist\, in 2018. Together\, they were highly engaged in the community of Idyllwild\, and chose to join Idyllwild Rotary Club in 2022. They have two amazing children\, Odin\, aged 4\, and Lili\, aged 1. Although they will always hold Idyllwild dear in their hearts\, a constant threat of wildfire and a longing for a greener world inspired them to move the clan to Washington in January 2024. John is now a trusted tree advisor and residential sales Arborist for SavATree – Puget Sound.
