Great Extractions:Rod Cordes recruited Art Harrington as a new Sarge. He extracted $5 from Jane Anne Shimizu to retrieve her jacket and auctioned off a vintage "Duck Race" T-shirt for $10. Sarge charged fines for not flying a flag, not serving as a youth exchange host, not helping with Rotaract, not working the Snack Shack, and not serving as a club officer.

Speaker at 5/30 Meeting:Linda Ojo, Tribal Culture Research Director, spoke on the history of the Yavapai Prescott Indian Tribe. From prehistoric times to the early 1860s, the Yavapai Tribe lived within the 9 million acres of central and western Arizona. A 75-acre Yavapai-Prescott Reservation was established in 1935 from land transferred from Fort Whipple and later increased by 1,320 acres. The Yavapai-Prescott Tribe was the first Arizona Tribe to receive a state Gaming Compact and they also secured their water rights through federal legislation passed in 1994. Beginning in 1980, the Prescott Resort, Bucky’s Casino, and the Frontier Village Shopping Center were developed and established.

Rod gave a big shout out to AJ for initiating the Club Runner newsletter. JaneAnne is still perplexed on the rearrangement of the podium and screen, however. A big welcome to incoming president Neal. We reminded him our meetings are held on Wednesdays. Anyway it was a lot of fun and if you missed it you missed out on some great comradery and great food!
President's Corner
A.J. Sheridan
Good Monday Fellow Sunupians,
I am sure that Neal will join me in extending a very special thank you to our "esteemed Rotarian colleagues" who were able to attend the De-Installation and subsequent Installation Party on Wednesday, June 6. It was a great night, of fun, friendship, great food and welcome libations! Quite the Wing-Ding really!
I thank all our members for the opportunity to have served you as your "Wicked Good Prez!"
Just have 3 more meetings and 1 BOD meeting! I think we will make it!
I extend my best wishes to Neal as he takes up the reins in July! I know that he will be a great president!
