Tony Watson will share some websites and information on an app at our meeting on January 21.
Before Cammy gave us information on new procedures at Meals on Wheels, President Don asked her to share her vocational / classification talk, so she did that. Even club members who gave a program get a library book donated in their name.
I presented a program about my work as a volunteer pilot for Angel Flight South Central on December 10th. I talked about why there is such an organization, how missions are posted and accepted, and the actual flight planning for these missions. Angel Flight pilots pay for their aircraft expenses as well as fuel out of their own pocket. It does take effort to maintain the structure for screening patients and other compassion flight uses, as well as maintain waivers and communication, so those staffers are paid, just like most non-profits.
Many of us enjoyed supporting The Salvation Army's Christmas efforts by Ringing The Bell on December 7th at Kroger. We staffed the kettle from 10 a.m. to about 6. The kettle and other equipment were a bit late in arriving, but we still went to work getting folks to drop in a little cash.
Don Ellis and others took a few pictures, and I'll continue a few below.
Alyssa Johnson introduced us to herself and her vocation on December 3rd. She is Principal of a K-8 campus of International Leadership of Texas, a charter school.
Gracen Hawley presented her vocational / classification talk on November 19th. We learned something about the care industry she is part of as co-owner and full operator of Midtowne Health and Rehab.
Midlothian Police Department's Chaplain, Larry Acheley, spoke to us on November 12th. His subject was the Resiliency Program for First Responders.
Our newest member at the time, Tom Hawbaker, spoke to us on November 5th, giving his classification talk.
We had a fifth Tuesday social event at Pinnacle Bank on October 29th, hosted by President Don Ellis. Costumes were optional, and here are those who dressed up. 3 for Oktoberfest, 3 for Halloween. Sondra, Chester, David, Pat, Laura and Don. David won the drawing for "best costume."
Our RYLA Campers made an enthusiastic presentation at our meeting on June 25th at Beef 'O' Brady's. Addison, Jorja, Jackson, Shelly and Zoe told us all about their experiences and had a presentation as well as a slide show and even a QuickTime movie.
