Once again, I take computer in hand to give you the very best in Red Bank Rotary information. I know what a joy it is for most of you to read these tidbits of knowledge that I pass out, so I won’t hold you in suspense any longer.
The EVENING started off with the Prez ringing the broken bell. I started the singing and luckily found a reasonable note with which to start. Chuck added the prayer and we 4-wayed. Ken gave us the new Rotary slogan, “Rotary, Making a Difference”. Ken’s lovely wife told the group that Ken had given her the theme pin, set in diamonds. Boy, doe he ever have a line, if he can get away with that.
All I remember about dinner was that it consisted of some type of chicken, and the bread pudding was for desert. I’m sure there was something else, but those two were the only things that stuck in my mind.
Our guests included as mentioned, Ken’s wife, Shannon, Chris Z’s wife and two visiting satellite Rotarians form the Asbury Club, Jackie Boruch and Diana More from the Freehold club. Chris Ryan also introduced Eric Anderson from, some said the Red Bank Club, but not many of us knew him. Many of us gave happy $$$, but I’m just too slow to get them all down on paper. I remember that Darren gave a dollar, because he was voted, in his PETS class, as most likely to be impeached.
Upcoming events include a Golf Meeting on 3-9 at Jay’s office. March 16th is the Lombardi Dinner, and April 20th is Career Day. Addie is having trouble getting matches for Career Day so we need to step up for that. April 22nd is RLI in West Orange, and April 24th is the Food & Wine. May 5th 6th and 7th is the Multi-District Conference in Gettysburg, and finally, June 10th to the 14th is the RI Convention in Atlanta. If you ever thought about attending an RI Convention, and I will tell you they are great, this Atlanta convention is the one to go to. Give it some thought. Oh, by the way, there is a Board or Bored meeting next week at 11:00 before the meeting.
The Satellite members gave us a rundown on what they were doing. One meeting a month is to plan the project and the second meeting is to work on the project. They have worked with the Tinton Falls Rotary, and the Asbury Rotary on various projects and will continue to work with any of the clubs in the county.
What a surprise, the $25 50-50 was not won by Lou. No, Ken’s wife, Shannon won the 50-50. Does that seem strange to anyone else?

Before I completely forget what happened at Rotary last week, I thought I might try to write the Cogs. Fortunately, I found my notes, without which, it would be a very, very short presentation.
Teddie played “God Bless America”, and we then pledged and 4-wayed. Chuck was superb but long in returning thanks and we were off the lunch. Lunch consisted of sliced steak with teriyaki sauce, mashed potatoes, and veggies. Barbara was in heaven with the molten chocolate cake for desert. Joe Greca brought along a guest, Jim Nobel, a web designer who has been with us before. Jim, come back anytime, you are most welcome. Two Rotarians were celebrating anniversaries, Warren for 30 years in Rotary and Chris Z. for 1 year. Congratulations to Warren and Chris. Let’s keep Warren in our thoughts, as he is again going through problems with his leg. I believe that he is in, or is shortly going to rehab after surgery. Doc was fined for no pin, and Rob for being late. That was it for the fines.
Happy $$$$$. Chuck started off for a “Happy Valentine”. Barbara gave for her new grandson gaining weight. He is now up to 6 pounds. Teddie gave money for her great, great grandchild, and Chris Z gave for his son turning 17. Our insurance agent, Chris Ryan, gave for all the 17-year-old boys that will be getting their license. Addie gave money for her Vocational Service Award, and brought it in to show everyone. Nice job Addie.
Remember, Darren, PETS is the 24th and 25th of this month. You can’t afford to miss this. Actually, Harriet, Bill, Chuck, Ken and I, along with Darren will be going down on Thursday and enjoying the annual Horton S Hickerson appreciation dinner at Ruth’s Chris. March 16th is the Lombardi Dinner at the Sheraton, and tickets are $55. April 20th is Career Day for our Club, and we need volunteers to take some of the interested students. April 22nd is the RLI in West Orange, and on April 24th, we have our Food and Wine. May 5th ,6th, and 7th is the Multi District Conference in Gettysburg. This is the first time we are joining other districts for a conference, and it should be fun. Go online to register. Remember, it’s fun, I’ll be there.
Our program for the meeting was the Association of the United States Army, (AUSA). Col Ret, Samuel Fuoco, the president of the Monmouth Chapter was the speaker. The Monmouth chapter consists of some 36 corporate members, and 650 individual members. Last year the chapter was selected as the best of all of the 119 chapters worldwide. Their goal is to serve soldiers and their families. They do this by raising money, public awareness, and education. Their main focus for them seems to be the “Fisher Houses” similar to Ronald McDonald Houses, where service families can stay when the soldier, or a family member is hospitalized. There are 72 of these homes.
Robin was our lucky 50-50 winner, and she said she took away $30.
Darren, don’t forget PETS this coming weekend. It’s important for you, and the Club.
