Led by former Seattle 4 Rotarian, David George Brooke, a.k.a. That Gratitude Guy, this presentation is an entertaining, enlightening, and empowering talk that provides tools and techniques to blunt some of the worldwide pandemic effects.

We can't wait to see you there!
We hope to see you at our next monthly Happy Hour on October 15, with guest hosts from the Seattle City Rotaract. We'll have lots of time for breakout rooms, trivia, and more!

District 5030 Workshop: Enhancing Your Online Presence
Making a great virtual impression with your image and voice is essential for connecting with your audience. Is your virtual image an accurate reflection of your real self? Does it enhance or detract from who you are? How can you be more effective as a virtual presenter, facilitator, or leader?
In this 90-minute workshop, you’ll learn tips to apply immediately that will help you master your virtual image and increase connection at Rotary meetings and at work. Join us for this lively session with Virtual Image Master (and Toastmaster) Rebecca P. Murray who will give you a proven 5-point image and audio checklist to ensure you shine in every virtual scenario. This event is open to all District 5030 Rotarians. Click the link below to register.
PLEASE NOTE: This session is limited to 100 Rotarians. So register right away!
Volunteers Needed at the Rotary Boys and Girls Club
The Seattle Rotary Boys & Girls Club, under the leadership of Patrick Carter, has taken on the role of full-day academic support and childcare for the Seattle Public Schools. This means they need to ensure students are online and learning with their respective classrooms. What problem does online learning present? Without human touch and guidance, the students are having their share of struggles. Some of them still can’t read or are having problems with basic math. Unlike the kids who can stay at home, they don’t have a parent or guardian to step in and help them when they run into problems.
Seattle Rotary Boys & Girls Club needs volunteers to come down and help. The time slots 8:30 – 11:30 and 12:30 – 2:30 are available and all COVID-19 procedures are being followed. No reported cases have been identified during the past six months of operation at the club. Volunteers will need to complete a simple background check and follow the guidelines.
Learn more about the Rotary Boys & Girls Club ontheir website.
