Meeting Notes
Guests tonight:  Mrs. Holla, prospective new member Lilly Lynch & our Speaker tonight Ruth Cronkwright, President of Camp Haccamo.
 
A moment of silence tonight to mourn the loss of past Irondequoit Rotarian, the Honorable Joseph T. Genier.  Joe was an active member of our club and continued to help out with our Pasta Dinner and other fundraisers even after he retired from Rotary.  Joe will be greatly missed by many members who were close friends.  See Obituary.
 
Lee Steinfeldt is heading up a committee to spruce up the Playhouse at Camp Haccamo.  See Lee if you can help out.  Things need to happen fast as Camp starts in July.
 
VP Lynn Wozniak has sent out emails asking people to RSVP for the upcoming Changeover Installation Dinner on June 23rd at Cobblestone Creek.  Please let Lynn know your intentions.
 
Lou DiPrima read a very nice note from the Sunset House for the spring cleaning done by our club.  
 
Raise A Glass event will now need volunteers for both June 12 & 13th.  See Dan Dwyer if you can help out.  
 
This year the Pasta Dinner will be on November 7th which will be after election day on November 2nd.  The previous Sunday is Halloween so that would not work.
 
The June 16th meeting will be for the High School Scholars who are recipients of our club's annual scholarships.  The students and their parents will attend our meeting and present their plans for the future.  The Business meeting originally scheduled for this date will be re-scheduled.
 
Our club is being offered hand sanitizer in bulk.  If anyone knows an organization in need of hand sanitizer, please see President Tom.  
 
 
 
 
Program Notes

President Tom Kosanke kicked off the Program by presenting Ruth Cronkwright with a check for $2600, our club's annual donation to Camp Haccamo.  Ruth is the current President of Camp Haccamo.  Dan Dwyer recently became Assistant Treasurer and is eyeing a promotion to Treasurer (or so Ruth hopes!).  13 Rochester area Rotary clubs are currently supporting Haccamo - down from previous years so our support is critical.  Ruth and the camp Board of Directors is following the strategic direction set previously with the help of our very own Dick Butler,   Dick was instrumental in bringing the non-profit support agency, Causewave, in to help with Camp Haccamo's direction.  Camp funds are being spent to hire help with donation development and public relations.  The goal is to limit use of the $2M+ Camp Haccamo Foundation money to only 4% withdrawal per year.  

 
The camp will be open to 200+ campers this year (youth and young adults with disabilities).  Many things are still up in the air regarding following Covid policy so all staff and campers are safe but things are moving forward in this area of uncertainty.  Camp this year is the first 2 weeks of July (earlier than previous years).  Ruth is actively seeking Rotarians and non-Rotarians to become members of the camp's Board of Directors.  Especially needed is a Vice-President and a Treasurer.  The board is a "working board" so please be sure if you join you will be active.  See Ruth or Dolly Kujawa if you are interested in a board position.
 
This Saturday is the Annual Car/Truck/Cycle Show which is a fundraiser for Camp Haccamo.  See the WEBSITE for details.
Contributions/Fines
All contributions tonight were made in honor of Joe Genier and will be donated to the Sunset House.
