NEXT MEETING: October 7, 2016

District Governor Fred Collignon

This Friday Rotary District Governor Fred Collignon will be our speaker. A retired professor of City and Regional Planning at UC Berkeley, Fred has received numerous community service awards and entry to the Order of the Golden Bear by the campus students.

Off campus, Fred has served on a wide array of local, metropolitan, state and national commissions and task forces. He was elected to two terms as a Berkeley City Councilmember and has served a total of six years at different times on the City of Berkeley Planning Commission, including two terms as Commission President.

In his retirement, Fred is serving as our District Governor and, happily, will be bringing his years of experience as a teacher, planner and active Rotarian to our club this Friday. Don’t miss it.

Our previously scheduled speaker, Steve Lack, will visit us in the coming months.

LAST WEEK’S MEETING

We regret that last Friday’s scribe was not present for the meeting. So we have no notes to present to you.

Our speaker Dr. Padilla cancelled the morning of, so for the program we had members in turn reminisce about interesting experiences they had visiting foreign Rotary clubs, including in Russia, Mexico, Japan, and Spain. It was actually a pretty great meeting
