IN THIS ISSUE:

THIS WEEK

“Antibiotics: Friend or Foe” is the subject of Friday’s program. Chris Velicer from the UW Medical Center will discuss her research on increased risk of breast cancer with the use of antibiotics. The BBRC returns to its familiar haunts at the Glendale Country Club on Friday, with breakfast served at 7:00 a.m., followed by the weekly meeting and the program. Be prepared to contribute to Tsunami Relief. Rotary International has set up a special account called “Solidarity in South Asia.” If you want to see your contribution go to a Rotary-sponsored group, note that on the memo portion of your check. Make your check payable to the BBRC Foundation.

ADMIN CORNER

It’s our semi-annual check-up of the data you’ve provided to the club’s database. Do you have a new email? A new home or business address? Been a member of another Rotary Club before you joined the BBRC and didn’t tell us about that? (The time spent in that previous club counts toward your “Years in Rotary.”) How about letting us know about your children? Clubmate (our software program) only likes to have DD/MM/YYYY when adding family members to the database. An upgrade is easy. Just go to the Members Only section, put in your ID and Password (ask the computer to remember it for future visits), click on “Online Directory.” This will reveal the club’s directory for individual members. It is your responsibility to keep the information current. You can do so by scrolling down to the “Directory Information Form,” which asks you to fill in information that you wish upgraded. Remember to click on the “Submit” button when you’re finished and DON’T USE the ENTER key while moving around the form.

Thanks for helping us keep tabs on you. We only sell this information to various online health and financial firms WHOA! JUST KIDDING!

Invoc Friday Potpourri

JohnsonMixLewis It was Back-to-School Day as the BBRC conducted an off-site meeting at Sammamish High School. Glendale Country Club was closed during the first two weeks of January for renovation.

John Mix gave the invocation (see right). Dan Lewis found slim pickin’s for visiting Rotarians.

Dick Brown celebrated the Big-65 among some of his best friends Friday morning. Because Service Club singing had been banned in public schools, there was no song.

Lynne Gauthier put the club on notice that items to donate to TreeHouse will be collected this week (January 14th) at Glendale.

Jeff Cashman caught the TV news act of Rourke O’Brien, who rose to explain how he got on the CNN cable station. The local Comcast Cable company has begun running short local news stories emphasizing community programs. His Chess in Schools project was the subject last week. No Sergeant At Arms, No fine. Immunity granted.

Brian Evison was ill with the flu, but had he been there, he would have announced the impending District 5030 RI Centennial Celebration, Thursday, February 3, at the Washington Convention and Trade Center. So far, 47 BBRC members have signed up and more are welcome.

Membership Retention Committee met after Friday’s meeting to discuss strategy for increasing the club’s attendance percentage.
