Rotary Club of Peoria North:
 
Happy New Year! I hope this message finds you well! I wanted to take a moment to extend my heartfelt thanks for your invaluable participation in the Rotary Rose Parade Float Committee Ambassador program this past year. Your dedication and financial contribution made it possible for there to be a float and for Rotary International’s presence to be seen by over fifty million people in the United States and televised in 210 countries and territories.
 
I am thrilled to share that this year’s float was honored with the Volunteer Award! This achievement reflects the commitment and passion of everyone involved, and your efforts played a crucial role in making this happen.
 
Thank you once again for your support, enthusiasm, and teamwork. I look forward to seeing what we can accomplish together in the future!
 
Rotarily,
 
Dwight Perry
Ambassador Program Chair
 
The Peoria North Rotary Club held its annual Fashion Show and Luncheon Nov. 22 at Briarwood Country Club in Sun City West.
 
Over 100 attendees enjoyed the latest fashions presented by Callee Rose and modeled by Rotarians and friends. In addition to the fashions, a number of door prizes were won by several lucky attendees!
 
President-elect Darlene Eger and Treasurer Sharon Jarnagin served as the emcees for the event, while Calee Rose took to the stage to describe the fashions worn by the models. Those in attendance were invited to browse and shop for clothing before and after the show, as Callee Rose brought along hundreds of additional pieces of clothing and accessories not modeled during the show.
The Rotary Club of Peoria North helped to make Thanksgiving more joyful for several low-income families in Peoria. The club donated 16 turkeys to the food pantry at Alta Loma Elementary School, a Title 1 school in south Peoria. The turkeys were provided by the school to low-income families in time for Thanksgiving. Past President Vernon Bridges, right, presented the turkeys to staff members at the school.
Three members of the Peoria North Rotary Club have completed all three Rotary Leadership Institute courses and have officially graduated from the Rotary program.
 
President John Calhoun, President-Elect Darlene Eger and President-Nominee Margaret Fried completed their third course and received their RLI diplomas at the RLI program conducted Nov. 16.
 
The Rotary Leadership Institute teaches Rotary basics and provides a better understanding of the Object of Rotary, The Rotary Foundation, Rotary grants and more.
Members of the Peoria North Rotary Club recently gathered to prepare dictionaries that will be distributed to third-grade students throughout the Peoria Unified School District.
 
The club has been distributing dictionaries to the Peoria Unified School District for more than 10 years. This year club members will distribute the books to 24 elementary schools in the PUSD.
 
Members met Oct. 26 at Erik Hayes's office to prepare the books. The Rotary Four-Way Test stickers are placed in every dictionary.
Peoria North Rotary Club marked World Polio Day during its Oct. 23 meeting by hearing updates on Rotary's efforts to eradicate polio worldwide and raising funds for Rotary's End Polio Now.
 
Past District Governor Bret McKeand provided an update on Rotary's efforts to end polio and noted the wild polio virus exists now in only two countries: Pakistan and Afghanistan. Rotary, however, is not slowing down its efforts nor celebrating any victories and will continue its vigorous fight until polio is completely eradicated.
 
Club members and guests attending the meeting made generous contributions to End Polio Now. All contributions are matched 2 to 1 by the Gates Foundation, so the net contribution is significant.
 
A total of $720 was raised by the sale of Iron Lung Lager, a beer created especially for District 5495 as a means to raise funds for End Polio Now. In addition, all Happy Bucks generated during the meeting are also being donated to End Polio Now.
