EREY Update -- Making Progress! Thanks to your generosity, we've raised over $10,500 in donations to the Rotary Foundation. So far, 80% of our members have made a commitment with only 10 yet to reply. Our goal is for everyone to make at least a small contribution (at least $25) so we can achieve “Every Rotarian Every Year” Club status. The money supports worthwhile Rotary projects worldwide and allows our club to qualify for District grants for our own local projects. Our generous March donors: Wally Bergstrom Matt Brehmer Dave Mader Kathy Mahoney Aaron Olson Scott Peterson Andy Sabatke Scott Schanhofer Aaron Sensenig John Skyrms Doug Welter Donate online here: www.rotary.org/donate or bring a check payable to “Rotary Foundation” to a club meeting by the end of May. New donors and those signing up for Rotary Direct receive 100 Paul Harris bonus points from Dana Kohlmeyer!

Neenah Rotary introduced a corporate membership program in July of 2014. This program allows up to four members of a Neenah business to be active Rotarians within the club. One of the members must be a member of the senior executive team, we encourage the others to be from different sectors of the company. All corporate members are allowed, and encouraged, to be as active as possible but are allowed to share the attendance requirement. A brochure is being developed to allow Rotarians to introduce the concept to area businesses but if any Rotarians know of good businesses to contact about the program, they are encouraged to make a proposal to Lisa Werner and the Membership Committee for consideration and contact. Our current Corporate Members, and longtime Neenah Rotary supporters, include Westgor Funeral Home and FNB Fox Valley.

(Neenah, Wis.) – For more than 20 years, the Neenah Rotary Club has recognized students, community leaders and club members who have demonstrated service to others and our community. The Club recently presented its community and club service awards during its annual Changing of the Guard dinner at the Best Western Premier Bridgewood Resort Hotel.
Lucas Unruh, a recent graduate of St. Mary’s Central High School and Lauren VanderMause and Ethan Weinaug, both recent graduates of Neenah High School were presented with the Service Above Self Youth Award. This award is presented annually to graduating high school seniors who have clearly demonstrated Service Above Self in their lives. Individuals are nominated by their respective schools and then selected after a paper review and oral interview by Neenah Rotarians. Youth award winners receive a $1,500 scholarship to be used for their future education.
Jan Williams was honored with the Service Above Self Adult award. This award is presented to a Neenah-area adult, who is not a member of the Club, and who best represents the idea of community action. Nominees are chosen on the basis of their outstanding community service and other activities which help the community and those who live in it. Williams has provided countless hours of leadership and commitment to the Neenah High School Basketball Booster Club and Future Neenah’s 3-on-3 Streetball event.
The Jack R. Grist Club Service Award recognizes a Neenah Rotary Club member who epitomizes service and whose values reflect the ideals of Rotary International. Raymond Smith was presented with the award for his years of service and commitment.
Founded in 1925, the Neenah Rotary Club is a service organization of about 100 business and professional men and women united in fellowship world-wide who conduct local and international humanitarian projects, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations and work towards understanding and peace. The club meets weekly on Thursday at Noon at the Holiday Inn Neenah Riverwalk. To learn more, visit www.neenahrotary.org.

Four members of the Neenah Rotary Club were recently recognized with
a Paul Harris Fellowship. Rotarians Mike Dillon, Bob Karrmann and Dale
Youngquist each earned their first Paul Harris Fellowship. Rotarian Bob Golz earned his second fellowship.
Paul Harris was born in Racine, Wisconsin and founded Rotary International
in 1905 in Chicago. Individuals who have
contributed more than $1000 to Annual Program Fund, the Polio Plus Fund or the
Humanitarian Grants Program of the Rotary Foundation are recognized as Paul
Harris Fellows.
Additionally, individual Rotary clubs may from time to time honor
individuals as Paul Harris Fellows. These honorees are individuals who meet
high professional and personal standards set forth by Paul Harris. Paul Harris
recognition is not limited to Rotarians.
Multiple-time Paul Harris Fellows are recognized as they continue
to contribute. Additionally, Paul Harris Fellows receive recognition points
which they may contribute towards the recognition of other members as Paul
Harris Fellows.
Founded in 1925, the
Neenah Rotary Club is a service organization of about 100 business and

What a wonderful season for us to Reach Out to Embrace Humanity. We are blessed that Neenah Rotary has touched many lives in our community and around the world.
Recently I had the honor to represent Neenah Rotary at Fox Valley Technology College and presented six scholarships to some very worthy students. Not only did the recipients express their gratitude that afternoon, but their thank you letters confirmed their appreciation.
An uplifting surprise came when I received a personal phone call from the father of one of the recipients sharing how much this scholarship meant to his son and their family. This student’s mother had passed away a few years ago and the father is working to carry out the mother’s wish for their son to receive an education. Our scholarship is making that wish come true.
Christmas miracle, yes, it is for this student and for all the students that Rotarians help to make their dreams come true. We give a life time gift. I ask that you look into your hearts this coming year and continue to give of your time, talents and financial gifts so others in our community will enjoy a blessed holiday.
I hope you all enjoyed the blessings of the holidays with your family and friends and wish you much happiness in the new year.
