Our returning members will get to tell us all about how they spent their summer vacation — their exotic travels, their days on the vineyard, their new grandkids and of all the wonderful new things that have been happening in their lives. But that’s not all, we also get to tell them how we spent our summer. For us this has been a very exciting summer. We had a chance to hear classification talks from some of our members and of course enjoy some really great speakers. We are the face of Rotary, and though we know that our organization is 1.2 million members strong and stretches across 163 countries, never forget that one of the faces that makes up that 1.2 million members belongs to you. With each classification talk we learn something about our members that make up Rotary. On last week I had the opportunity to share a little about myself and my role not Service Above Self just as the Principal of the Westcoast School but as a Psychologist. In this role, I work with individuals that have physi cal limitations, helping them to adjust and cope with the emotional challenges that life may throw their direction. Baseball is not the only place where curveballs are thrown, life has a way of throwing each of us a few curveballs and for some it will even throw in a few sliders. It may be an unexpected illness, a sudden job change, the death of a spouse. As a psychologist its my role to help individuals make since of these changes and adjust to the new circumstances that life throws their direction. 2 Key Notes Members Corner HAPPY FALL Y ALL.
