Stories
This week at Rotary - guest speaker Ron Williams
 
 
Ron Williams is one of our best-known Pottstown educational leaders and community activists, not just locally but also regionally and nationally. His heritage is that of a Native American northern plains background.
 
Ron is the original sponsor and caretaker of the Pottstown Lenni-Lenape Burial Ground memorial; founder and organizer of the Pow Wow on Manatawny; benefactor and fundraiser for the Pine Ridge Native American Reservation in Wanblee, SD; recent recipient of the Valley Forge Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) Community Service Award; and many more. Ron has also served on the Pottstown School Board.
 
Ron will discuss his many activities, the causes nearest to his heart, and some of the historical and modern experiences of Native Americans.
 
Please come, learn, and love.
 
Please note - we are planning to continue with a hybrid meeting format.  For hybrid meetings we are aiming for a minimum of 20 in-person attendees in order to support the meeting logistics.  For those comfortable to attend in person, masking and social distancing rules will be followed although relaxed if you are vaccinated.  Registration is required for in-person attendance so that we can plan meals. Register here if you have not done so.

Thanks to everyone who participated!
 
Hear more of the details on Wednesday night at the meeting.

Hoagie Sale to promote Halloween Parade
 
The Pottstown Halloween parade has been scheduled for this Saturday, October 23rd at 12 PM.
Once again, Rotary will support the event, so we are conducting the Ice House hoagie ticket fundraiser to help cover the costs. 
 
Tickets are $8 each and are valid from September 1st through November 30th.
 
This fundraiser is really a win-win-win. Rotary raises the funds to help the tradition of the parade to continue.
You get a great deal because hoagies are normally $ 9.95 if you buy them directly from Ice House and we are supporting a local business.
What's not to like about all of that goodness?!
 
Please contact Lauren McCloskey or Rick Gray to get your tickets.
 
Have a wonderful day!
Lauren McCloskey
