She characterized Rotarians as a group dedicated to making a difference. She demonstrated how a single person committed to making something happen - CAN! In addition to describing her Hearts of The World project Potenza talked about Constitution Park and the We The People Project. After 4.5 years in the approval process, it will be constructed on 6 acres in conjunction with the Independence National Historical Park, Liberty Bell Pavilion, Gateway Visitor Center, and Independence Park Institute. There will be 50 walls, feet high, one for each state, which will incorporate rock indiginous to each state. The building will incorporate construction materials from the steel and debris of the World Trade Center. Potenza is sending This American Heart T-shirts to each Congressman and Representative. In addition to her planned talk, the presence of the Seegmillers and their presentation prompted her to recount the loss of her own son to a drunk driver. The driver was convicted of 2nd degree murder. Potenza visited him in prison every week for 6 years. Now that man is on a campaign to educate youth in the prevention of such tragedies.

It was full (144 golfers) and the weather was fantastic. A tremendous amount of hard work went into making this a success and the club thanks the golf committee for an event that added about $20,000 to our Community opportunity fund. A good dinner at the Hilton. More on this later from Tux Tuxhorn Watch this spot for news on the Culinary Classic Celebrating Food and Wine MAY 30 Meeting Notes President Steve Olsen presiding. Among our visiting Rotarians and guests were Kent and Joan Seegmiller, who thanked the Santa Rosa Sunrise Rotary Club for continuing the memorial recognition of Joan s son Michael Scott De- Shields via the continuation and enhancement of our scholarship program. The scholarships are in character with Michael s vibrant, active, hardworking attitude towards life (see the bulletin from two weeks ago for this year s winners). The scholarship was founded in 1986, the first year of our Rotary club after Michael s untimely death. Brian Rondon s Father passed away and Steve Olsen s Father-in-law passed away during this past week. Our condolences to the families. There were several last minute Golf announcements, but those don t mean anything now. RECOGNITION Dale Zumfelde said he appreciates the club holding a birthday celebration for him at the Hilton Hotel just after our golf tournament. Denise Gilseth was born on Mothers Day and her Mother is continually reminded of the event via its date and the BBQ. She caught a 17- pound salmon!! making several other rotarians envious. Nancy Aita offered up $5 for her great weekend bed and breakfast experience in Yountville, which she purchased at the Wine and Wheels auction (along with a LOT of other stuff). Steve Davis acquired a brand new Audi A6 to keep his boxter company. Russ Lockner was all over the map (isn t he always) and he was traveling too: Colorado, Salt Lake City, Michigan (ever been to Detroit?), St. Louis, Phoenix and, you guessed it - Montana. Keith Taylor met his son in Mesa, Arizona after the latter completed his bicycle ride from San Diego to Florida!! The bus he More Recognition was riding from Florida, broke down 45 miles out of Mesa, so he just got his bike off the bus and road into town to meet his Dad. Jon Stark had a great time at the Jazz Festival in Sacramento. Mike Downey was recognized for the new Summit Bank building on Bicentenniel. Larry Martin paid for the recovery of his car keys. What do these two have in common? ANNOUNCEMENTS Call Jon Stark to help nominate 2 High School Juniors for the upcoming RYLA Leadership camp in JUNE. Saturday, August 10th Stargazing at the Robert Ferguson Observatory at Sugarloaf Ridge State Park. Call or accost Peter to sign up ( ). Potluck dinner, optional camping (MISTIX PARK). Use the Internet to reserve!! John Dolinsek Remembers REMEMBER.. When the worst thing you could do at school was smoke in the bathrooms, flunk a test or chew gum. When a 57 Chevy was everyone s dream car to cruise, peel out, lay rubber and watch drag races, and people went steady and girls wore a class ring with an inch of wrapped dental floss or yarn coated with pastel frost nail polish so it would fit her finger. And no one asked where the car keys were cause they were always in the car, in the ignition, and the doors were never locked. And playing baseball with no adults to help kids with the rules of the game. Back then, baseball was not a psychological group learning experience it was a game. Remember when stuff from the store came without safety caps and hermetic seals cause no one had yet tried to poison a perfect stranger. When being sent to the principal s office was nothing compared to the fate that awaited a misbehaving student at home?

Club Service Merle Hayes... Community Service Steve Worthen... Major Events Ross Jones...Club Activities Eve Nighswonger...Vocational Service OF EVENTS Rotary Youth Leadership Awards Leadership Camp June 16-June 21, 2002 Westminster Woods Rotary International Convention June 23-26, Barcelona, Spain Board Meeting Monday, July 8, 5:30 pm Steve Worthen s Office Special Board Meeting w/ District Governor Wednesday, July 24, time TBA Steve Worthen s Office Stargazing at Ferguson Observatory Saturday, August 10 - see inside Interact Student Orientation August Elsie Allen High School June 13, 2002 Jerry Dodrill - Photography Publisher : Steve Worthen THIS WEEK S PROGRAM My experiences, both at home and abroad, have provided an expansive array of opportunities to photograph the world. A deep desire for travel and climbing has led to exotic destinations around the globe in search of remote alpine peaks and foreign cultures. Photography perfectly accommodates my need to create art while evocatively sharing my journeys to the edge of reality. Through my experience-based images I hope to communicate my respect and connection to the natural world. I seek graphic, elemental compositions, which portray the simplistic order, balance, and rhythm of life. My goal is to inspire others to be personally interactive with their environment and experience the invigoration and freedom of the wilderness. Jerry Dodrill has been documenting his adventures with a camera since the early 1980's. When he began rock climbing near his home in Central Texas in the late '80's, the camera became a standard piece of his equipment. A trip to Yosemite in 1990 opened his eyes and changed his life forever. Within a year his family had moved to the Golden State and a lifelong commitment to adventure was formed. A well-rounded base of experience in all disciplines of climbing have attributed to his photographic success on the biggest walls in Yosemite and many tall peaks around the world. His excursions have led to Argentina, Bolivia, China, France, Greece, Italy, Kyrgyzstan, Mexico, Micronesia, Switzerland, and throughout North America. Jerry studied photography and fine art at Pacific Union College ( ) and received several rewards for outstanding achievement. His well-respected work has been exhibited in many prominent venues including the Ansel Adams Gallery in Yosemite Valley. His images and writing have appeared in The North Face catalog, Outside, Elevation, Rock & Ice, Fitness Runner, Vanity Fair, and others. He lives in Sebastopol, CA and teaches photography at Pacific Union College while continuing his stock, assignment, and fine art photography business. PROGRAM CHAIRPERSON FOR MAY IS STEVE WORTHEN Last Week in Review: Honorable Arnold D. Rosenfield Judge Rosenfield did a great job describing the concept and practice of Restorative Justice. In the conventional system, once the cases get to court, the attention is all on the perpetrators and once they are in Juvenile Hall, they sit on their butts and learn about crime. Restorative Justice is not a program - it s an idea. It brings balance to the way we look at juvenile crime: 1 What is the harm caused to the community, 2 Who caused it, How can the offender make it right with the victim/s. Judge Rosenfield provided some examples of the concept in practice. The process includes a family group conference which includes the victim, extended family, the perpetrator and family, police, probation officers, can be over 30 people. Understanding the impact of the crime enhances the probability the person will not commit another crime. Several members have commented that it is unnecessary to repeat the details of a presentation they have seen. There is much more on Restorative Justice on the internet. It s a great idea.

See more on his website and the Art at the Source website: The Santa Rosa Sunrise Weekly Bulletin Several comments, complaints, suggestions have been passed on to Linda Hauck (past and next bulletin editor) and I to make the bulletin better. They include: (1) decrease the file size to make it easier to download, by decreasing resolution of photos and eliminating the last 2 pages of the bulletin, (2) Eliminate the discussion of last week s speaker as it just repeats what everyone already heard, and (3) Eliminate the sponsor requirement as mailing costs have been decreased. Pass further comments on to Jim Moir. President s Message "Although it is said that faith can move mountains, experience shows that dynamite works better."
