The Bike Kitchen

Posted on Aug 03, 2021

Our program was provided by Art Schwaller of the Bike Kitchen. We learned about the various ways that the Bike Kitchen supports our community as a non-profit organization. People are taught how to fix their own bikes by using the tools and resources at the Bike Kitchen. They also donate a substantial number of bikes to youth in our community and are always taking bike donations. Andrea Hamre will be making a proposal to our Club for supporting a new project that donates helmets to the Bike Kitchen. Thanks for the great idea, John Patterson!

District Governor Mike Mayott

Posted on Aug 03, 2021

We were honored to have Montana Rotary District Governor Mike Mayott attend our Club meeting. Mike spoke about initiatives from Rotary International, encouraged more members to donate, spoke about the Rotary Foundation, and inspired us to grow more members.

Youth Dynamics

Posted on Jul 27, 2021

Our program was provided by Youth Dynamics. We learned about Montana youth in foster care, how foster parents are screened by Youth Dynamics, and the various treatment and support services that are offered to foster care youth by the program.

El Salvador Water Project

We listened to John Taylor, a visiting Rotarian from West Virginia, share information about an international Rotary water project in El Salvador. If anyone is interested in donating to his project, you may make a check payable to Rotary Club of Shepherdstown and send it by mail to that club at P.O. Box 603, Shepherdstown, WV 25443 with a note that funds are intended for the "El Salvador Water Supply Project" or you can send your donation electronically using PayPal at https://isc.shepardstownrotary.org/donate/ You can also find the project on MatchingGrants.org under the Global Grant listing and click on the link to "pledge" support directly through the Rotary grant website.

Gallatin County Treatment Court

Posted on Jul 20, 2021

The Honorable Judge John Brown spoke to our Club about the history and current status of Gallatin County Treatment Court. We learned that Treatment Court relies heavily on evidence-based research regarding drug court best practices. Andrea Lower, Treatment Court Coordinator, provided Rotarians with brochures describing the timeline of Treatment Court, number of applicants, and graduation rates. It was inspiring to hear how they are working to change lives!

We're excited about all that our RYLA participants learned about leadership, Rotary, and all so much more during the 2021 RYLA conference. Each year, Bozeman Noon Rotary Club sponsors a number of students to attend the conference. Congratulations for selection this year! We can't wait to see what comes next.

June 29, 2021 Lunchueon will be our annual GAVEL LUNCHEON, held at "The Springs" during our regular meeting time.

This luncheon, which will focus on the installation of the 2021-2022 Board and President Kristy Buckley, is also a chance to look back at the last Rotary Year and to eagerly look forward to what's in store for us in the 2021-2022 Rotary Year. A special guest will be Sandy Carlson, current District Governor who will help install Kristy. Plan now to attend!

Bozeman Noon Rotary Club remains one of the celebrated 'singing clubs', meaning we start meetings by joining together in fellowship through a wide variety of song. One to commit to memory is below. Join us at today's Gavel Luncheon to sing along!

"Montana" Lyrics

Tell me of that Treasure State

Story always new,

Tell of its beauties grand

And its hearts so true.

Mountains of sunset fire

The land I love the best

Let me grasp the hand of one

From out the golden West

CHORUS

Montana, Montana, Glory of the West

Of all the states from coast to coast, You're easily the best

Montana, Montana, Where skies are always blue

M-O-N-T-A-N-A, Montana I love you.

VERSE 2

Each country has its flow'r;

Each one plays a part,

Each bloom brings a longing hope

To some lonely heart.

Bitterroot to me is dear

Growing in my land

Sing then that glorious air

The one I understand.
