LOCATION:
HYBRID MEETING - Country Club of York and Virtual Meeting on zoom.com
PROGRAM:
We've all seen videos of people being stopped on the street and asked things about our country that should be common knowledge. The history of America is an amazing story but all too unfamiliar. Our speaker will be Randolph G. Russell who will talk about connecting with history and how that makes us better citizens and also enriches our lives. Russell's informative and entertaining presentations have been enjoyed by more than a hundred Rotary clubs from Orlando to Kansas City to Las Vegas.
In addition to his expertise in history, Russell is an accomplished musician who has performed in many European countries and throughout the United States. His presentation will include a surprise at the end.
He is the author ofAmerican History In No Time, a quick and easy way for anyone to learn the basics – in just a few hours. Copies will be available for purchase (cash only) at the meeting.

YOUTH EXCHANGE NEWS!
The Youth Exchange Committee is please to announce that the Youth Exchange program is gearing up for the new academic year 2022-2023. Although they are not hosting students this year (2021-2022), they are looking for students who are interested in spending a year overseas next year. Here are three ways you can help the Youth Exchange Committee: 1) If you know any high school sophomores or juniors (or their parents) let them know about the Rotary Youth Exchange program and that there is an informational meeting for students and parents by zoom on Saturday, September 25at 9:00 a.m. 2) Send YE Committee Chair Walt Tilley the names and contact information of any high school sophomores or juniors who are interested in learning more about our exchange program, and Walt will send a Zoom link for the information meeting. 3) Volunteer to help the YE committee. The work this year is light because they are not hosting students, so it is a great time to learn about the exchange program and get involved! Thank you!
