ROTARY 2008/2009: MAKE DREAMS REAL 3 MMEESSSSAAGGEE FFRROOMM TTHHEE PPRREESS !! March was highlighted by the induction of three new members into the Club, and a visit by the District Governor and Assistant District Governor. Welcome to John Land, Lynne Genitti and Cari Lee Jones! I look forward to your full integra - tion into the Club, and the contributions that you will undoubtedly make in the community and to the Club. March also saw the winding down of our focus on community service organi - zation in preparation for the 2009-2010 budget. The month will end with the last Assembly for this fiscal year, and then we'll start preparing for our busy Spring/Summer events period and the transition to Doug Gerrard's leadership. The Bread & Honey Pancake Breakfast and Camp Enterprise are next on the horizon. We've satisfied most of our major financial pledges for the year. This includes the final payment of $20,000 to the Credit Valley Hospital in fulfillment of our $100,000 pledge and, most recently, our $3,000 payment to the Rotary Founda - tion. The latter was presented to the District Governor during his visit. Our pledge to Camp Enterprise has been paid, and our finances appear to be on target to leave the incoming leadership team with cash on hand. I encourage you all to look forward enthusiastically to participating in our Spring/Summer schedule of events because the community service is our ultimate reason for being together and the events allow us to enjoy each other's company after a hard Winter of mainly meetings, heckling and fines. I find that our Club is at its best when doing something. We're action-oriented! It's also a time when our spouses, kids, grandkids, nephews, nieces, friends, etc. get a better chance to participate in Rotary with us. I, myself, am ready to do something tangible in Streetsville, and my wife and kids are already asking about our next event. Please roll up your sleeves, start encouraging our event organiz - ers (Doug, Bob M, Scott, Arvind) with your readiness to work, and start recruiting more volunteers in waiting.

The ramifications of Rotary are beyond imagination. Nearly every phase of modern life is influenced and the outlook of mem - bers is broadened and through it all there is the benign fellowship which sweetens life. These are a few of the many reasons why rotarians value their membership. Paul Harris, My Road to Rotary

12 ROTARY 2008/2009: MAKE DREAMS REAL TTHHEE LLIIGGHHTTEERR SSIIDDEE

Yesterday, I was at my local Canadian Tire Store buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet, Sheriff, the Wonder Dog, and was in the checkout line when the woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had, an elephant? Since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that No, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again.

I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices, and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet, and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally com - plete, so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.)

Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her No, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's Butt, and a car hit us both. I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack, he was laughing so hard... Canadian Tire won't let me shop there anymore. Better watch what you ask retired people. They have all the time in the world to think of crazy things to say.
