"PAC” with Matt Cadman
A great leadership Team –Wenatchee President Don and RI president Ian Riseley!
THINK ABOUT IT! – The Object of Rotary – A refresher lest we forget why we are here.The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster: FIRST: The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service; SECOND: High ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society; THIRD: The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business, and community life; FOURTH: The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.[ABCs of Rotary page 3, and also linked from our Home page; see also related feature story in August Rotarian]
MATT CADMAN, Executive Director of the Numerica Performing Arts Center (PAC) in Wenatchee will be our program on July 27. He will be revealing the sneak preview of their very exciting upcoming 2017-18 season and Matt will introduce Jaime Donegan, director of the Numerica PAC’s Hot August Nights production of La Cage Aux Folles, which opens on Aug.3. As Executive Director for the PAC, he is responsible for pro-moting its mission from its long term vision to its day-to-day operations.Matt is active in the theatre, acting and directing for over 30 years in dozens of produc-tions in Seattle and Wenatchee. He will appear in the Hot August Nights production of La Cage Aux Folles this summer and in Mission Creek Players production of Glengarry Glen Ross in September.Retired from teaching in 2013 after 34 years, Matt left education to assume this position at the Numerica PAC. His final teaching position was at Eastmont High School, where he loved teaching History and English, and performing or directing the occasional play. Matt holds a Doctor of Education degree from the University of Washington in the area of curriculum reform.Matt was raised in Wenatchee and has probably attended more Rotary meetings than some of us, but his attendance was not voluntary. As his father, Ed, became more deeply involved in Rotary International, he loved to show-off his kids at meeting after meeting after meeting, even during his term as International President of RI in 1985. In 1990, Matt married the beautiful Camille--and they have one son, Colby, a sophomore at Gonzaga University
August 3 - District Governor Bill Jenkin (Prosser) will be with us for an all-club visit at our regular meeting place and time, followed by the eighth annual all-club potluck, 6 pm at Sunrise Circle Park. Last chance to sign up and get details at Rotary meeting this week. As the “flagship” club of the region, our club leadership encourages a GREAT turnout for these events. Let’s not allow the other clubs to outshine us! See our web site for details.

President Elect, Pete Van Well led the meeting for vacationing President Don Meyers. Head table: Sue Rose, Leonard Singhose, Angela Spies and Stacy Spurlock
In anticipation of the Apple Sox fellowship event on Monday, July 24th, Mike Kintner led the meeting in a rousing rendition of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame”. Pete read from his suggestion box, clearing up confusion about Tom McNair’s requirement to hold hands under the table during the meeting, why Pete doesn’t use an iron, encouraged all members to sign up for a committee and agreed with Carmen’s suggestion to end polio!

Angela Spies introduced Stacy Spurlock for her classification talk.
Stacy was born in 1971 and has lived in the Wenatchee all her life. Her mother was considered a “rolling stone” which meant that as a child, Stacy moved several times and attended up attending every school in the area. Eventually, Stacy earned her GED from WestSide High. She credits Mr. Skaliski for encouraging her to earn her GED. It was because of him that Stacy learned about giving back to her community and what it meant to be a Rotarian
Stacy met and married her husband at age 15. They have been married for 28 years and have 2 children and 2 dogs. Stacy began working at age 15. Her first full time job was at Skookum, packing cherries, working in the cherry sheds. Then moved into the service industry as a bar- tender for 11 years which was a lot of fun and a great way to meet new people. Her favorite drink to make is a “Duck Fart” (Pete nominated Stacy to be on the Fellowship Committee).
Stacy’s mother in law had a stroke at age 53. Stacy and her husband cared for her mother in law in their home until she passed 11 years later. She is grateful that her children had the benefit of a live-in grandmother. Stacy decided to make a life change and earned her Associate Degree in Accounting. She now works at Clifton, Larsen, Allen which she claims is the best place to work!
In her free time, Stacy enjoys camping, crocheting, computers and playing pool. She played on the Wenatchee Women’s Pool league, taking 5th place out of 100 of individuals.
President Elect Pete presented Stacy with a speaker’s gift of roasted coffee from Café’ Mela.
Several Brags were shared.

Board of Directors (BOD) - Thursday afternoon the club’s new officers and directors met for the first time of the Ro-tary year. Names & positions of the 14 members are listed on the web site home page. The agenda included such mat-ters as Firesides, dues-collection issues, bad debt, improving quality and cost of financial reports, Appleseed preparation and sponsorships, Foundation goals (after such a great year of fund-raising), satellite clubs and fellowship gatherings. A discussion on disposition of leftover WRF funds for the re-cent Haiti project was tabled pending availability of affected members. A dues discount for members under age 35 was reaffirmed until future consideration. The board discussed the newly developing multicultural satellite club and decided that attendance qualifies as a makeup meeting, just as with the on-going Friday fellowship gathering at Pybus Market.
