Important Information from the Club
Possible Service Projects
Do we as a club, or some of our members, follow the lead of lots of other Rotarians around the world and start doing some service projects in our community?
 
Please read the email from Cathy Hinchman, a former member now living in Sugarland, about what her club is doing in response to COVID-19.
 
Please contact your President, Nancy Paulson or any Board member if you would like to serve your community - one of these ideas or make a suggestion. There may be some funds available for projects this Rotary year.
 
There are funds available through district and Rotary International for these types of projects. Jeff Coleman, President next year, is working on getting Grant trained and Board approval for projects next year.

Census 2020
For the first time, you can choose to respond online, by phone, or by mail. Respond today. The census helps shape many different aspects of your community. Everyone is counted. Download A Sample Form. Everyone Is Counted. Your Privacy Matters.
 
The 2020 Census counts every person living in the United States and five U.S. territories. In mid-March, homes across the country began receiving invitations to complete the 2020 Census. Once the invitation arrives, you should respond for your home in one of three ways: online, by phone, or by mail. When you respond to the census, you'll tell the Census Bureau where you live as of April 1, 2020.
 
Less than 25% of Aransas County residents have responded. Can we help increase that percentage? Who can we encourage to respond? Let's do our part.

The Rotary Four-Way Test

Of the Things We Think, Say or Do:

With a South Texas addition

  1. Is it the Truth?
  2. Is it Fair to All Concerned?
  3. Will it Build Goodwill and Better Friendships?
  4. Will it be Beneficial to All Concerned?
  5. Will it be fun?
Our 1.2 million-member organization started with the vision of one man—Paul P. Harris. The Chicago attorney formed one of the world’s first service organizations, the Rotary Club of Chicago, on 23 February 1905 as a place where professionals with diverse backgrounds could exchange ideas and form meaningful, lifelong friendships. Rotary’s name came from the group’s early practice of rotating meetings among the offices of each member.
