From humble beginnings in the Philippines, Rotary's effort to eradicate polio has had great impact across the globe.  Club Polio Chair Russ Sommerfeld shares more about this important work.

Seward Rotary Club and Seward Kiwanis Club joined forces this year for the annual “Family Day at the Museum” on Sunday, September 8 at the Seward County Historical Society Museum in Goehner.  Seward Rotary, which has hosted the event for years, invited the Kiwanians to co-sponsor the event in response to Rotary International's encouragement to join with other service clubs in a community effort the week of September 8th.  As usual, Family Day featured free admission, train rides, and an ice cream social served by members of the two clubs.  Thanks to everyone who attended and contributed to the event's success!

There's a lot already in the works for our Club's 100th Anniversary Year and the excitement is building.  Wouldn't it be great to capitalize on it by growing our Club? 

 

According to one survey of Rotarians, 85% joined their current club because someone invited them.  So who do you know that would make a great Rotarian?  Now that you've thought of them, invite them to join you at one of our weekly meetings - perhaps Gov. Pillen's visit on August 28th - and introduce them to your fellow Rotarians.  After that, well, you joined, didn't you?
