Stories
Aircraft Carriers and Feats of Engineering
Rotarian Rich Muller (left) and LNR club president Dirk Dahlke.
 
Thank you to long-time club member Rich Muller for an engaging presentation on the engineering that goes into aircraft carriers. Rich spoke on the intricacies of landing an F-14 fighter jet on a warship runway, and how the invention of the angled flight deck made the process safer. If the landing was aborted for some reason, the angled runway would force the pilot to turn the fighter jet to the right, thereby avoiding turning back toward and crashing into the ship. Who knew the guy who tells the corniest jokes was such a font of knowledge when it came to our country's naval fleet?
A Gavel for Bill Lawrence
 
LNR club president Dirk Dahlke (above right) presented past president Bill Lawrence with his official commemorative gavel, honoring his service to the club. Bill had the formidable task of leading the Lewisville Noon Rotary during the year of COVID shut downs, including the advent of virtual club meetings via Zoom. His fellow Rotarians are grateful for his service to the club and to our community at large!
Paul Harris Point Match Program is Back!
Want to move to a new level as Paul Harris Fellow? Now's your time to jump on the fast track! From September 1 - December 31, 2021, for each dollar you give ($250 - $500) through the Rotary Foundation to the Annual Program Fund "share," District 5790 will match that with points. A total contribution of $500 plus 500 bonus points qualifies you to become a Paul Harris Fellow, or move up to another level if you are already a member.
 
The program is offered only once a year, so don't miss this opportunity to grow our foundation! For more information, contact Steve Cox at stevec@door.net.
MISSED A MEETING?
If you want credit for a make-up, contact LNR Membership chair Terry Russell to let him know when and where you attended another Rotary club meeting, or the date and service activity that you participated in to count as a make up. You have two weeks before and two weeks after a missed meeting to make up for your absence. Make-ups are a great way to meet Rotarians from other clubs and become more engaged with the outreach activities we do in the local community!
