Hello Nevada City Rotarians,

Thank you to Robin for her craft talk on Thursday evening at our social. From the tech world to leading eco tours in Yellowstone and South America, she had many exciting stories to share.
 
This week we have our own Nevada City Chief of Police Dan Foss and an officer giving us a recap of the Peace Officers Standards Training (POST). Our Club has been helping to fund this professional development. By the way, we had a great turnout of our members supporting Dan and his department at National Night Out last week. A great time was had serving hot dogs and even participating in the color run!
 
Rotarian At Work” T-shirts are being ordered, so please be sure that you get your name on the clipboard if you need one. If you are a new club member your T-shirt is free! Veteran club members can order a new one for a small price. 
 
This weekend our Youth Committee, led by Louise Johnson, held their first meeting of the year – I’m hoping that we will have a quick update on their what they are working on.
 
See the info below for our plans for the 5th Thursday of August supporting our NU freshman football team. We’d love to have a big turnout – bring the family!
 
Be sure to RSVP for Thursday’s meeting. Choose your meal, pay in advance if you wish, and be sure to finish and submit the reservation form. If you’re bringing a guest or prospective member, please be responsible to RSVP and order their meal choice for them. The menu for this week follows this article. 
 
See you Thursday,
Karen
 
Co-President Karen
Karen, Cathy and Doug
 
P.S. Needed: Host family for our RYE student Milton from Sweden. A three-month stay in a home of a Rotarian or non-Rotarian; can be a couple, an individual, or family. Contact Lindy Beatie or let me know. Doug & I had an RYE student stay with us 5 years ago or so and it was a great experience!
 
Needed: Male mentors for Rotary Eighth Grade Leadership (REGL) experience for the weekend of September 15-17 or 22-24 at Grizzly Creek Ranch in Portola. Another outstanding experience helping 8th graders to know themselves better. See Louise.

Colors Galore at National Night Out
Our local law enforcement agencies know how to throw a fabulous community party! Chief Dan and Nevada City Police Department (NCPD) fired up their awesome new grill and recruited Nevada City Rotarians to assist with cooking and distributing all sorts of goodies to kids and friends. Cathy had baked and baked cookies that were served up along with over 500 hot dogs provided by Nevada City Police! Plus NCPD’s cardboard police cars and mini handcuffs were big hitters as was Nevada City’s newest officer K-9 Ruby, a young bloodhound.
 
Crowds of locals joined in the merriment that came to a climax with the Kids Color Fun Run! Cathy and Robin joined in the fun run of the Colors on behalf of Nevada City Police and Nevada City Rotary. Kids of all ages ran the course throughout Memorial Park while officers and community partners shot out canisters and threw buckets of brightly color chalk on anyone around! Then a waterhose from a fire truck doused the runners! 
 
Nevada City Rotary is proud to partner with Nevada City Police Department (NCPD). Check out the fun photos at National Night Out!
