Health Care Reform


Chelsea H. Hester from the Winchester's Latest Rotary Club came to visit this morning to let us know about all the changes in the Health Care business. Her presentation entitled: "How Health Care Reform Affects Businesses and Individuals" is very helpful as new laws impact all of our business sectors. Thank you Chelsea!

Search and Rescue in Haiti

Jennifer McKay was our featured program speaker. She had an amazing program about her time in Haiti as part of the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Urban Search and Rescue Team. Jennifer and her search and recover dog Rogue were a big hit. She shared some very interesting rescue stories her team made in Haiti after the earthquake.

Rogue knows how to listen.




Thank you Jennifer and Rogue for a great program and all you do to help others.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU - HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

The Rotary Club of Frederick County celebrates birthdays that make everyone feel like a kid again.
President Elect and Sergant-at-Arms Kitty Zuckerman dishes out the hats and glasses for birthday celebrations - all as part of her effort to raise schlorship funds for Sherando High School students. Then the club joins in with a version of "Happy Birthday" that is quite unique. If you want the good version it costs. All the proceeds go directly to the schlorship fund.

Marietta Walls is crowned for her birthday.

The Four-Way Test

In 1932, Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor created The Four-Way Test, a code of ethics adopted by Rotary 11 years later. The test, which has been translated into more than 100 languages, asks the following questions:

Of the things we think, say or do

Is it the TRUTH?

Is it FAIR to all concerned?

Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?

Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
