Not only did we miss those of you who were unable to attend Rotary last Tuesday, but you missed a fantastic program on the Uganda Nursing Program. Past District Governor
Jerry Hall,
accompanied by his lovely wife
Tasha, shared so much information through slides, video and his own experience. The Uganda Nursing Program is one of the premier nursing programs in Uganda (and probably beyond). Did you know they have computer tablets that sync with the interactive whiteboards? In other words, the instructor can enter things on the whiteboard and it will transfer into the students’ tablets. WOW! That is sophisticated.
Thanks to
Don Fultz’s help with the original vision of the Uganda Hospital. We owe a lot to him for how far this program has come. Also, did you know that
Jerry Hall was also past Rotary International Vice-President and Director?
Bob Kline presented Pat Swope with her Paul Harris plus 1 pin. Congratulations,
Pat!
Christina Van Horn shared of her upcoming move to New Hampshire to be close to her mother and family. We will miss you and hope you have a safe and wonderful drive cross country with no weather challenges.
This coming Tuesday Eleanor Kenitzer will be our guest speaker. Not only is she a Past President of Nevada City Rotary Club, Eleanor also directed the Cornish Christmas Choir. I am sure we are in for a treat!
