Rotarian STAN MITHOEFER, Director of Real Estate, Purdue Research Foundation, will provide an "Update On The Purdue
Research Park." STAN will be introduced by SCOTT RUMBLE, Program Coordinator for the month of August. To check out the home page of the Purdue Research Park, 
President DAN introduced District Governor Charles "Chuck" Bragg (DG Bragg), Rotary International District 6560, who made a
presentation to the Club as a part of his official Club visit. Prior to this, DG Bragg had met for approximately one hour with Club Officers and Directors reviewing, in a very positive manner, aspects
of the various Club committee activities and Officer functions. DG Bragg, in opening his presentation, recognized: (1) Three Past District Governors in attendance - BILL HATFIELD- 1998-99; JOHN
MCKEE - 1960-61; and HAROLD TAYLOR - 1975-76; (2) Past Presidents of the Club; and (3) John Rockey, Assistant Governor, who has supervision
responsibilities for the Frankfort, Lafayette, Lebanon, and Zionsville Rotary Clubs. He then called attention to Rotary International President Frank J. Devlyn's banner,
this banner is to be a prominent part of all of his Club visits, which stressed President Devlyn's Rotary year theme - Create Awareness - Take Action. DG Bragg
noted that: (1) A Rotarian's vocation/profession/classification is what Rotary is all about; (2) Rotarians are members of the oldest and most prestigious service Club in
the world; and (3) Rotarian's goal should be to show the worthiness of each profession - let everyone know. He challenged the Club to: (1) Increase membership
by 5%, increasing membership is one of President Devlyn's goals; (2) Deal with the equity problem in your business/profession; (3) Develop a community awareness
regarding drugs, disabilities, literacy, at-risk of adults and children, environmental issues, and the problem of world population. In closing DG Bragg requested Club
membership monetary support for the following: (1) $100.00 per member, envelopes will be made available, to The Rotary International Foundation to support the Group
Student Exchange, Ambassadorial, and matching grants programs; (2) $5.00 per member for the "Gift of Life" program (bring children from foreign countries to Riley
and St. Vincent Hospitals for life saving surgery); (3) $5.00 each for "PolioPlus" (eliminate polio worldwide by 2005); and (4) $10.00 per member for "Sight On
Wheels" program (cataract surgery in INDIA where $100.00 will provide cataract surgery for three individuals).
