Healdsburg's Community Calendar & Resource

Welcome
to the Rotary Club of Healdsburg website. I am pleased
to bring visitors and members together with this
Internet resource.
"Rotary Shares" is the theme of Rotary for this
2007/2008 year. And the focus of the Rotary Club
of Healdsburg will be on exciting new local Healdsburg
projects as well as on three ongoing International
projects in Africa and Mexico.
Healdsburg is located an hour's drive north of the
Golden Gate Bridge in "The Heart of Sonoma County
Wine Country." The Rotary Club of Healdsburg is
#386 of over 32,000 volunteer Rotary clubs with
over 1.2 million men and women in 168 countries
whose membership is dedicated to "Service above
Self." We donate our expertise, time, and money
to help make our community and the world a better
place to live.
This year we are embarking on an outreach program
with Healdsburg High School that will expose students
to over 50 professional and vocational career opportunities.
The members of our Club will host a number of "Career
Days" and "Workshops" with all grades of students
at HHS starting this Fall semester. We will also
offer mentoring and job shadowing to all interested
students. We are very excited about this no-cost
way of sharing our extensive and varied career experiences
with the youth of Healdsburg.
We have currently raised over $150,000 in our drive
to establish a Scholarship Endowment Fund, and have
a goal of raising an additional $250,000 over the
next five years. Through our scholarship program,
14 Healdsburg High School graduates have received
scholarships from Healdsburg Rotary in 2007.
In our elementary schools, our members will be providing
books and reading to children. This is a wonderful
and fulfilling way to reach out to the very young
in our community.
Our Annual Crab Feed at the Villa Chanticleer in
Healdsburg raised over $65,000, of which we will
give back 100% to the community for various worthwhile
projects. Some of these projects involved financial
support of the Teen Center at the Boys & Girls Club,
partnered with Healdsburg 4H Club in an art mural
project, and partnered with the City of Healdsburg
to help clean up Foss Creek, and rebuild the Gazebo
in the Plaza.
Our support of Rotary International projects includes
financial involvement in The Hope Corp, micro lending
in Kenya, Safe Blood Africa and health and sanitation
projects in Pina Tepa, Mexico. Rotary Club of Healdsburg
has made a difference over the years with these
visionary projects. for further details, go to Rotary
International's website: http://www.rotary.org
Thank you for visiting our Website. I hope you will
also visit our club meeting on a Monday when you
are in our area, to enjoy the fellowship of Rotary.
We meet at 12 noon, enjoy a catered lunch and listen
to interesting and informative guest speakers each
week.

Rotary Club of Healdsburg, 2007-2008
