Rochester Rotary Welcomes
Our Newest Members 

The Rochester Rotary Club and Board of Directors would like to extend a warm welcome to our newest members. We had TWO new members join our Club in May.

Paul Guglielmo is On-Air Host at iHeartMedia and Owner of Guglielmo Sauce and was sponsored by Peter Sarratori and John Velekkakan.

B2B Connections Downtown Walking Tour

Join us for Career Day (Morning) at School #8
School 8 Logo
We're gearing up for another Career Day at School #8, and we're hoping that you can join us! This is probably the most visible, potentially well-attended event between Rotarians and School #8 students.  Won't you please consider joining us for this the event, scheduled for Friday, June 9th from 9 to 11 am at the school? Your participation would involve standing at a table (in a large room where many fellow friendly faces are also manning their own tables), sharing information about your profession/function/industry, answering questions, and lighting a spark of curiosity in these youngsters, approximately 160 of them from Grades 6-8.  
 
More than likely, most of the students will not know anything about the various professions represented by our Rotarians. That's the whole point of this annual event; we want to enlighten these students to the world of possibilities available to them. 
 
Also, please spread the word among your non-Rotary friends. We have love to include as many different professions at this event as possible. 
 
For more information or to sign up, contact Patty Phillips or Bill Keenan, or RSVP to Myrna at the Rotary office.
Community Service Teams
Veterans Outreach Center Flag Day Event

Join us on Flag Day, Wednesday, June 14th from 11am - 2pm for our next Community Service Teams project with the Veterans Outreach Center. We will be handing out flags downtown outside of the Home Leasing offices (hosted by Rotarian Jeff Jeenhouts). We will be stationed in the breezeway between Chase Tower and Clinton Square and will hand out flags during people's lunch hour.
 
If you are interested in volunteering or have any questions please email Jeff Leenhouts directly at jeff@homeleasing.net or call him at 727-0632.
Launch a Ball w/the Red Wings
& get a free game ticket 
We are excited to have been chosen again
this year as the charity that will benefit from the Red Wings "Launch a Ball" promotion.
The proceeds from this promotion will go to the Sunshine Campus.

All you have to do is sell tennis  balls before the game, as a volunteer, you'll get to enjoy the game for free. Plus, there will be fireworks after each game!  

We are still in need of volunteers for the following dates:

June 24th
July 22nd
August 26th
September 2nd

The Sunshine Camp is looking for a Nurse! 
We have a great opportunity for a Nurse this summer, the dates would be July 16th-21st and July 23rd-28th.

If you are interested or know of anyone who is contact Brandi Koch at brandi@rochesterrotary.org or apply online at www.sunshinecampus.org.
