What an extremely informative presentation from CDR Higgins of the US Coast Guard. He let us know some very interesting facts about deployment, budgets, cooperation among different jurisdictions, and the types of incidents that they are involved in policing. I myself was not aware of all that they must handle particularly in winter months keeping water ways open. The level of cross agency cooperation and in some cases international cooperation seems at a proactive state. I of course wanted to know some casual facts like what are they smuggling, But hey we ran out of time!  It was nice the Coast Guard John Braund (Thank you John) sang at Don & Mary Alhart's wedding and Bob & Nancy Witmer's wedding always a Rotary connection in some way.

On Thursday night I had the pleasure of attending the B2B Seabreeze event what a fantastic turnout for this event. Congratulations to Andrew Brady and Terry Kelley for organizing such a great event.  A HUGE Thank you to New Member Mike Mantione for arranging to have Rob Norris talk with us about the Park and the really special, special facts that make it such a jewel to our community. The gift bags and food were above and beyond! This location was a great site and perfect for a company picnic. I am excited about the carnival let's light up Camp!

 Rochester Rotarians are the best source of qualified new members--bringing their business colleagues and friends into the club each year. This past year we saw more than 35 new members join Rochester Rotary!

We need your help to achieve our goal for this year. Do you have a business associate or a friend who might benefit from Rochester Rotary through excellent speakers on a variety of topics at the Tuesday Noon Lunch Meeting, business networking meeting with other business leaders or service opportunities such as those at School # 8 and the Sunshine Campus?

Your Membership Committee is undertaking a special campaign for new members-PLUS ONE! We are asking each member to identify and engage one new member! Bring your potential new member to a luncheon or to an upcoming event. Membership Co-Chairs Mary Lewis Consler and Scott Rasmussen are happy to assist you, as are all Membership Committee members.

The proposal process is easy:

• Simply complete a short Membership Proposal Card, which can be found on the Rochester Rotary website under "Club Committees," and submit the card to the Rotary office.
• A Membership Committee member will meet with your candidate to discuss Rochester Rotary and to learn more about the candidate.
• The Membership Committee member will share information with the committee and make a recommendation for Board approval.

Currently Rochester Rotary is looking for new members in these areas:

• Advertising & Public Relations
• Architecture & Engineering
• Business Owners
