This Friday's Meeting...
Meet our exchange students, Alma and Ana! Alma is from Gussago, a village near Brescia, Italy.  She has some very diverse interests, including tennis and hip hop, and she has traveled extensively.  Ana is from Ramnicu Valcea, a small city in Romania. Her school is a four minute walk from home. She says she is talkative and loves hanging out with her Interact Club friends.  Meeting our exchange students is always a highlight. The Lenexa Rotary Club is proud to sponsor these amazing individuals! 
News From Last Week
District Grants
Great news! The Lenexa Club applied for two District grants and was awarded them both! The first was a $1,000 grant for Johnson County Christmas Bureau, and the other grant was $906 for the District-level Stop Hunger Now packaging event, which will be held in conjunction with the annual district conference next May. Stay tuned! 
Volunteers Needed for the Lenexa Fire Safety Trailer in October
October is Fire Prevention Month, and the Lenexa Fire Department Safety Trailer is on the move! They will be visiting seven Lenexa elementary schools between October 4-18, and we will again be providing behind-the-scenes support services.  We are creating two volunteer shifts – 9:00-11:30am and 11:30am-2:00pm – during which one (1) Rotary volunteer is needed (so 14 volunteer slots total for us to fill.)  As in the past, you are more than welcome to work more than one shift! Contact Ashley Sherard (asherard@lenexa.org) for information on how to become a volunteer with the Fire Safety Trailer and what volunteer shifts are still available. 
Rotarian Magazines Piling Up? 
Bring your old Rotarian magazines to a meeting, and we will donate them to the students of the Shawnee Mission Interact Club! 
Follow Zach on his travels in Denmark
Zach Ziegenhorn is our outbound student.  His parents are also the host of our exchange student from Italy, Almi.  Zach's mom tells me he is having an awesome time in Denmark!!  His e-mail address is zacharyziegenhorn@yahoo.com and you can also follow his blog as a great way to keep connected – "hopefully he will keep writing on it!!"  The blog is at https://zchzg.wordpress.com/ and if you “follow” you will get an e-mail every time he posts a new entry.  As Zach's sponsoring club, we have a duty to support him during his adventure.  I sincerely hope you will periodically check in and let him know Rotarians back home are interested and proud of what this year will mean to the rest of his life.
