This Friday Tricia Roberts with the City of Overland Park and the Heart Safe Hand Only CPR will be teaching us hands only CPR. Most people who experience cardiac arrest at home, work, or in a public location die because they don't receive immediate CPR from someone on the scene. As a bystander, don't be afraid. Your actions can only help.
Dates still available are: November 20, 23 and December 2, 3, 4. All the dates are Monday through Friday. If you are able, please sign up to help!
Rotarians from across Johnson County are volunteering to collect coats to be distributed to children at Johnson County Christmas Bureau and school districts in Kansas City, and Kansas City, Missouri.

Rotary License Plates
The Leavenworth Rotary Club needs our help with the Rotary License Plate Project to get it off the drawing board and into production. The State requires a commitment from 500 Rotarians, or more specifically for 500 plates, prior to cutting the plate and beginning production.
What will it cost?
NO financial requirement from the Club.
Cost is $90.50 - a one time $50 tax-deductible royalty payment to The Rotary Foundation, plus State fees of $40.50, plus vehicle registration fees and taxes.
Summary - A GREAT way to promote Rotary and End Polio Now -- Support The Rotary Foundation -- Accomplish a FIRST in Kansas.
If you want to sign-up for the Rotary license plate, please let President Amy know at amyruo62@gmail.com The sign-up sheet will be at the meeting on Friday, November 20th.
