Farewell to Tomas from the Czech
Republic
Club members gathered at the home of
Thom and Brenda Weiss on Sunday August 3 for a
cookout and birthday cake, to say farewell to
Tomas, our exchange student from the Czech
Republic from a couple of years ago. Tomas visited
Madison for a month and stayed with the Weisses.
Tomas had offered to do chores for club members
and did some gardening with Helen Baldwin on
Monday July 21and cooked an Asian dinner and a
pie with Eng and Bill Braun on Sunday, July 27.
Club members were invited.
Tomas had spoken to the club on July 28
when he showed slides of Prague, where he has
started at Medical School, right out of high school.
In the Czech Republic, he has joined Rotex, for
former outbounds and also Roteract which supports
an orphanage. and where they will start teaching
English.
Youth Protection Background Checks
A background check is needed if you expect
to sign up to drive our next exchange student to
school. Rhea Myer, the club’s youth protection
officer, must send in our annual request for
background checks for those who anticipate having
one-on-one contact with children as a part of their
Rotary year. This renewal background check is
required each year by District rules and we choose
to do it as of the end of July. The club has budgeted
for the cost, which probably remains at $11.50 per
head. Unless you contact Rhea, he will send in the
continuing list of people to renew their
authorization:
Paint-a-thon August 2
Breakfast Rotary teamed up with the After
Hours Rotary for the August 2 Paint-a-thon, a
program of Project Home. Brenda Weiss
coordinated the project where volunteers from both
clubs painted the exterior home of a family on
Toban Drive. Hallman Lindsay Paint Company
provided the paint and the Manna Café provided
lunch for the painters. Project Home paints 8 to 12
homes in Dane County every year.
Our greatest glory is not in never falling,
but in rising every time we fall. – Confucius
