    Rotary Club of Red Hook, New York Weekly Bulletin SERVICE ABOVE SELF November 19, 2019 http://www.redhookrotaryclub.org/ www.facebook.com/RedHookRotaryClub Carl Dowden photographed the Interact Club at Red Hook High School in the process of making pies as a fundraiser for their Shelter Box project (left photo). The photo on the right features Fred Cartier, Deborah Jones Barrow (WAMC), Dave Wright The meeting at Cancun’s started at 7:30 am with Dave Wright, VP, serving as the chair. Following the pledge, four-way test, and a blessing by Mike Shafer, we shared breakfast. Then Linda and Carl gave a glowing report on the pie baking by our Interact club, noting that over 40 pies were prepared by the teams. There were more boys than girls in the kitchen and the club left the space immaculate. Linda noted that the apples were given by Kenny Migliorelli – Granny Smiths and Macouns. Fred introduced Deborah Barrow, of WAMC, to the group. Deborah has had a residence in Red Hook since 1983 and has been a fulltime resident since 2011. When she became a fulltime resident she began fundraising for WAMC. She emphasized the increasing importance of radio, particularly public radio, in disseminating the news. Noting that 1800 newspapers have closed in recent years. She said that WAMC now covers a huge swatch of the area from Mount Kisco to Plattsburg and from Cooperstown to Mid-Massachusetts. Keeping up with new technologies, they also have developed live streams for computer access, podcasts of special interest and numerous other outlets. Personally, Deborah has developed a number of new sponsors, including Hummingbird Jewellers and Nuvance Health Insurance.
