Oor Rotary Mobile Health Clinic Bus on a Crowley cargo ship bound for Haiti! How Cool!
The Rotary Club of South Jacksonville extends deep gratitude and thanks to Crowley Maritime, especially to Dick Dooley and LaSonya Hill for helping with the cost-free shipment of our bus to Zanmi Lasante in Haiti. Our bus sailed as cargo on April 5 and arrived into Port-Au-Prince, Haiti on April 10. The bold Rotary logo is proudly visible on the bus thanks to Rebecca Walden of First Coast Signs Jacksonville who donated all Zanmi Lasante and Rotary logos.
Save the Date... April 28, 2015 - We need You!
There is always a need for blood, and only volunteer
donors can fulfill that need for patients in our community. Nationwide,
someone needs blood every 2 to 3 seconds, and most of us will need blood at
some point in our lifetime.

Rotary Minute
Week 41. Rotary Minute for week beginning
April 13,
2015.
The Weekly Minute – turns out it’s more than a minute! Last week I attended the first anniversary meeting of our newest club in the District, the Rotary Club of Interlachen and Lakes Area. It was a good meeting and a celebration to a good start for this emerging club – almost 25 members strong. The Interlachen and Lakes Area club is one of many clubs with a Minutarian who routinely reads the Weekly Minute to club members during the meeting. So I got to listen to one of my Weekly Minutes. As most or you already know, it took that Minutarian bit longer than a minute to read it in full. So calling it the Weekly Minute is a tad misleading. Oh well, I just want all Rotarians in District 6970 to know what’s happening and why everyone should be proud to be part of one the best Rotary Districts in the world. And if that takes more than a minute – so be it – you’re worth it.
Event Reminders:
May 8-10: District Conference and Assembly at the Flagler College campus. Mark your calendar for a weekend of interesting, informative and inspirational sessions, and a lot of fun Rotary fellowship.
June 18-21: Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) will take place again this year on the University of North Florida’s campus. Each club should sponsor at least one, and preferably two, aspiring high school leaders to attend this life changing event.
June 26-28: Zone 34 Regional Seminar at the Hyatt Hotel in Jacksonville, Florida. All District and Club leaders are encouraged to attend. Look for more details soon on our District website.
For more on these and all other events in District 6970, please go to www.rotary6970.org.
