This Week's Meeting 7/30
We will again be having our Thursday weekly meeting outside under the pavilion in Van Horne Park in Rocky Hill at 7:30AM (access via the light at Benjamin Blvd by the Burger King on Route 206).  Food and drink will not be provided but feel free to bring your own food and drinks if you prefer.  Masks and social distancing will be required.  We will also send out a Zoom link to the membership and try to patch people in so that all can participate.  If the forecast calls for heavy rain, we will move the meeting strictly to Zoom (an email will go out the night before).   Our speaker for this week will be Kevin Wortham from Minding Our Business which focuses on developing entrepreneurship in the youth of Trenton.
Installation Dinner
Kevin Lynch has proclaimed Save The Date for this year's Installation Dinner!!!  That date is Thursday Sept 17th from 6:30PM to 8:30PM at Cherry Valley County Club (please note it will be held outside).  Details to follow.
Flags For Heroes
The Flags For Heroes display at Montgomery High School will be held this year from Sept 1st thru Sept 13th.   To sponsor a hero, please see the website (www.montgomeryrotary.org) for complete details.  For any questions, please contact Josh Turner.
Bikes For The World
We are still planning on doing a Bikes For The World collection some time in late September or October.  In the meantime, we occasionally get opportunities to pick up bikes ahead of the collection date but need a place to store them.  For example, there are 50 to 60 bikes at a bike shop just over the river in Newtown, PA that we can take if we had a place to hold them.  If you have some sort of covered storage that we can use until the collection date, please contact Zoltan Nagy.
Virtual Magic Show
Our friends at the Rotary Club of Robbinsville Hamilton are holding a virtual magic show fundraiser on July 29th at 7PM.  For more information and ticket info, please visit www.MercersGotMagic.com  
President's Message: Ideas
At our weekly meeting last Thursday, we held a brainstorming session to come up with some new fundraising ideas for this Rotary year in addition to our Flags For Heroes project.  As I mentioned last week, the pandemic wiped out all our major fundraising events.  This year we are dipping into the funds held in our Foundation investment accounts to fund our Giving Budget but we want to mitigate the need to have to do this again next year if the Run With Rotary doesn’t happen next Spring.
