THIS WEEK'S MEETING...
Please welcome Kecia Williams, the new director of Livingston County 911 Central Dispayvh, who will give us an update about improvements to the system, just a stone's throw away from our meeting.
When should you call 9-1-1? When should you NOT call 9-1-1? Did you know they have a non-emergency number you can call if you're not sure? Write this number down and add it to your contacts as 9-1-1 NON-emergency number. (517) 546-9111
Ms. Williams has more than three decades' experience in 911 centers and most recently was the dispatch manager for the 911 Communications Center with the West Bloomfield Police Department and has a bachelor of science degree from Eastern Michigan Center in Technology Management.
Ask her about her service in the military. To her left of the screen shot is Deputy Chief Curt Lawson with the West Bloomfield Police Department as they appeared a year ago on the CCTV15 program.
It's fall, y'all and Jim Gilmore wants your money to fund our annual Pobuda Scholarships through a Fantasy Football competition. The details follow.
We are getting the teams and owners signed up for this annual fundraiser that is in its umpteenth year now (you'll have to ask Diane McCormick exactly how many as she has the travelling trophy).
The object is to have a little fun with fantasy football while raising some money for our Club's Scholarship fund named after our third President, Don Pobuda.
Here is how it works...
Each player (team owner) kicks in $40 for their team. $25 goes to the Livingston Sunrise Rotary Foundation for the Pobuda Scholarship Fund and $15 is set aside for prizes and trophy engraving at the end of the season.
You can be as active as you choose in changing players, using the waiver wire, trades, etc. We have had winners who have very little (or no) activity at all as well as those who seem to know alot about the NFL. We use Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football platform which is fairly easy to learn and navigate. Choosing your team name is a fun exercise and we've had a few extremely creative names (ie. WooWoo's Rumble, Locos Rotarian and Tacklin' Fuel) and others not so creative (ie. Sara's Team). We usually award prizes for First (less the engraving cost) Second and Third.
Tom Archer and I are the Commissioners and our decisions are final...no appeals.
So, if you are interested, let me know by email and include the email you want to use for your league communications. If you were a participant last year, you can keep your team name and if you are new, we'll assign you a team or ask you create a new one. If you were a participant last year and you do not want to play this year, let me know so we can assign your tream to someone else.[Do it now. Pre-season games start now through the end of August, but they don't count!]
Your money is due prior to the AutoDraft, which will be held automatically Saturday, September 3 prior to the first game...no money, we re-assign your team. Please pay in cash paper-clipped to a Post-it with your name on it or check for $25 made to the LSRF and $15 cash (also paper-clipped). Please DO NOT give me a check for $40 made out to LSRF or made out to me... [Got it. Give $15 cash to Jim, write a check to LSR Foundation for $25.]
Don't miss your chance to play and support the Pobuda Scholarship!
