Aloha!
Congratulations to Char Mansfield and Jim McKeon who were inducted as our club's newest members on Monday, March 8th. Char was also elected as Club Service / Club Administration Committee Chair to fill the vacancy with the leave of absence of Colin Hanlon.
A new member orientation was held on March 8th. Two new members are proposed for induction on March 29th. If any club members have any prospective candidates who will be attending meetings in March, please contact me at rbarreras@hawaiiantel.net Membership Committee Chair Randy Echito will return from vacation on March 29th.
We are currently seeking our Title Sponsor for the annual Michael H. Lyons II Golf Tournament. New member applicant, Phyllis Davis, is actively volunteering to help our club with raising tournament sponsorships. She will give an update on Monday. The Golf Tourney Committee will not meet on Monday. It will meet again on March 22nd following our club meeting.
Mahalo to Randol Leach for chairing the meeting in my absence on Monday! I am on a business trip off-island.
Yours In Rotary Service, Rita

This Week's Program
GROWING OUR OWN TEACHERS
(GOOT)
PROGRAM

Lis Richardson, Past-President of the Rotary Club of Kihei-Wailea, is the project chairperson for the "Bricks for Teachers" Program.
The project supports scholarships for local student teachers to help them complete their education through a program called "Growing Our Own Teachers" (GOOT).
In January 2009, nine local student teachers received $3500 each to complete their education. Funds were raised from donations and laser-engraved brick sales which are proudly on display at Kamaole Beach Park III. In January 2010, three teachers from the next cohort received $2000 scholarships. It appears that there will be nine more teachers in next year's group.
Lis and club member colleague, Susan Bradford, and several teachers will join us at our club meeting to share information about the GOOT Program. Orders can be placed at www.RCKW.org. Follow the link to the Bricks for Teachers order form. For more information, you can call Lis Richardson at 344-5777.
