Winter and Spring Meeting Speakers
 
I am pleased to say that our winter speaking schedule is full, and spring is nearly so.  We have a solid line-up of interesting and informative speakers committed through April 20th, and three more through May 11 currently pending.  In other words, only six dates remain open in the current club year, all of them in May and June.  
 
This spring every meeting will feature someone new and relevant, beginning on January 5th with Be Settled, the “tiny home” project that aims to solve the sticky issue of homelessness.  On the 12th, an update from Amborella House, the recently opened shelter for victims of human trafficking.  On January 19 we hear about local efforts to prepare youth for productive futures through apprentice and manufacturing ready programs.  And on January 26th an intriguing look at the life of a Navy Seal.
 
That’s not all.  Ramsey County Attorney, John Choi, will speak to us about human trafficking from a law-enforcement perspective.  We have Paul Gardner from the Minnesota Clean Water Council, Jill Funck from H.B. Fuller, Katrina Lund from woman-owned non-profit recycler, Eureka Recycling, well-known writer and performer, Greta Grosch, and many others, all contributing to AH-S Rotary Club life.
 
There are half a dozen slots left to fill in the current club year and another whole twelve months to come in 2021-22.   So, if you know of someone interesting and informative, by all means consult the AHSRC Speaker Signup sheet or call me at 651-246-7056.  Or just pick a few dates and commit to finding our speakers for those dates.  Together, we can make every meeting a great meeting.
