With the rising concern over the spread of H1N1 flu, our greeters will give you a warm welcome as you enter our meeting room each Tuesday, but they will not be shaking hands with you. Your club’s Board of Directors is making this change out of concern for everyone’s best interests. ~ President Rich Herzberg

BRC Rotary Foundation Annual Fund
by Kathy Korth
Your annual gift to the Rotary Foundation is your gift to the world. Here is our Rotary Foundation story of the week from Bellevue Rotarian Sarah Langton:
- My GSE experience to Sri Lanka in 1992 changed my life and world view forever. The Foundation brings the world together by promoting peace, goodwill and understanding through the Group Study Exchange program. It made me a Rotarian for life!
Please help Bellevue Rotary meet the goal of 100% member participation in the 2009-2010 Rotary Foundation Annual Fund Drive by contributing whatever amount you can. CLICK HERE to make your contribution online with a credit card or have your donation billed through your BRC account.

A BIG thanks to all of you who have signed up for the annual Salvation Army Bell Ringing! For those of you who haven’t yet signed up, there are still shifts available, so CLICK HERE NOW to select your shift. Take a break from the hustle and bustle of the holiday season and take part in the spirit of the season by giving and helping those less fortunate. Bell Ringing is December 5 and 6, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. each day, outside of Nordstrom in Bellevue Square. Shifts are one hour each, with two people or one family/group per shift, please.
NOTE: For all Bell Ringers, please mark your calendars for a Salvation Army Bell Ringing Orientation on Thursday, November 19, 8:30 a.m. – 9:30 a.m. at the Eastside Salvation Army, 911 164th Avenue NE, Bellevue. Okay, so some of you are thinking: it’s just ringing a bell, what more do you need to know than that? Well, it’s a bit more than standing by the kettle — and we actually don’t ring a bell because of noise ordinance. The orientation covers what to do with the kettle at the beginning and ending of the day, answering questions by donors and security issues (yes, sad to say, some people do try to steal the kettle.) The orientation will also include a brief tour of the Salvation Army offices. Please contact Liz Swanson (Ph 425.761.6721) regarding whether or not you can attend the November 19 orientation so the Salvation Army can plan accordingly.
