Link Six | | | | The Rotary Club of San Jose held its weekly meeting at the San Jose’s Rotary Summit Center.
The greeting line in the Joe Leavitt Room was staffed by the Debunking Committee chaired by Carl Cilker and today led by all-round good person, Brian Adams. The Committee sees that our retiring President receives a memorable send-off. I happen to however to overhear Jerry Silva’s take on the matter as Jerry explained to a Red-Badger that “it is a very respectful salute to our out-going chief.” Jerry can gloss anything.
President Mike presided over the Club’s 4934th meeting. We joined with Ray Silva and the piano of Professor Terry Kane in singing America the Beautiful.
Our “Wisdom for the Day” came from Jay Ross. The words do speak wisely and it seemed that others might like a copy of what he said. “On June 13, my parents will celebrate 59 years of marriage. | | Parents Helping Parents
As a parent-directed, community-based organization, PHP's mission was developed in response to the need in our community for information, training, and support services for families who have children with special needs and the professionals who serve them.

It has been twenty years since the last case was reported in the Americas. While India seems on track again for 2013 to achieve zero polio cases, frantic efforts are underway in the other polio-endemic countries. Let us all rededicate ourselves to the cause and keep fighting to eradicate Polio from the face of the earth. You can download Rotary International's "End Polio Now" bimonthly newsletter by Clicking On This Link. It was updated April 2013. The bottom line is this: As long as polio threatens even one child anywhere in the world, all children – wherever they live – remain at risk. You can track the progress on the internet of Polio eradication at this link. There is a Rotary International Link here. | |  If you need information included in the web pages, want to comment or need something done on the web page, please contact the webmaster by clicking on this link: Email SJ Rotary Webmaster Please do not contact the Rotary Office about the web pages.
