Chad Harr's Climb for ShelterBox

Chase Harr, an ambitious mountain climber, joined us last Thursday. He told us of his journey to climb all 67 mountains in New England over 4000’ to raise money for ShelterBox. ShelterBox provides shelter and emergency relief to families forced to flee their homes around the world. It is a cause that Rotary has long supported. He is not quite halfway through climbing the peaks with several weeks left to go. He will be achieving 18 of the remaining peaks in short order as they are located close to each other. A very ambitious undertaking for a good cause!

Dr. Chip Teel's Research

This coming Thursday we will welcome Dr. Chip Teel from the Boothbay Region Health Center. Dr Teel will describe work he has done in the area of reversing cognitive decline. This is an important field of research and we will be among the first to hear his results.

New Member Induction

We will also be inducting two new members – Mike Mallen and Karen Prichard. Mike and Karen have already been active in club activities and we look forward to their formal induction!

Hybrid Meeting

With the weather once again looking rainy for this Thursday (remnants of Hurricane Ida), we will likely be unable to use the deck for social time. We will therefore have appetizers and Turpentine inside, where we encourage several feet of social distance when eating or drinking and masking when not. We will also conduct the meeting via Zoom beginning at 6:30 when the program begins. Either way, please plan to attend!
