The meeting is held in the Renaissance Room located on the 2nd floor. Rotary 14 meets in a hybrid format. Join us at The Cornhusker or on Zoom. https://bit.ly/rotary14zoom
Join us on April 21, 21-1pm in the Cornhusker Ballroom.
The event will take the place of our regular Tuesday meeting.
Since 1988, Lincoln Rotary Club 14 has been honoring Nebraskans who have distinguished themselves through service to other in keeping with ideals of Rotary International. These Nebraskans have shown honesty, integrity, and concerns for others through leadership and significant contributions to their profession and their communities.
Pat Birch and Pat Leach invite Rotarians and their friends to join them for a prairie walk on April 25 to support Rotary’s Global Polio Eradication Initiative. We'll celebrate the prairie in spring and Earth Day. Join us at the earth-shelter home of Pat Leach and Bill Oberg for short-and-easy walks through the prairie at their place just northwest of Lincoln. To sweeten the deal, Pat and Pat will provide home-baked cookies and coffee. Come to walk in nature or just enjoy the view and the cookies. Further details and a map will be sent following registration.
A $50 donation per person is requested. Checks should be made out to "Polio Plus" and turned in at the event.
At our April 14 meeting, Rotary 14 welcomed new member Kent Rogert (sponsored by Andrew Loudon). Be sure to give a warm Rotary welcome when you see him!

Congratulations to our latest recipient of the Rotary 14 High School Student Leadership Award. Janet Kovalenko from Standing Bear High School joined Rotary 14 on Tuesday, April 14 to accept this honor.
Every year, Rotary 14 invites a student from each local high school to present information to the club membership regarding the importance of community service at their school. To share the Rotary mission with area high school students and create an interest in the ideals of service. Committee members work with school administrators to identify a student leader to accept the award and work with those students to create a short presentation to be given at a regular club meeting.
These same students are encouraged to participate in the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards seminar held by Rotary District 5650 each spring. They are also made aware of the Club’s High School Scholarship criteria and encouraged to apply, if appropriate
If you were at President Randy Hawthorne's inaugural meeting, you heard that he's inviting each member of the club to the President's Table. These have been assigned randomly. Here are the upcoming dates:
