 Karen Bridgeman - Sharing information with the Club

Looks like a great way to spend a beautiful spring day in Oak Ridge, TN.

As you all know, Courtney Henry's husband, Brian, was seriously injured in a car accident several weeks ago and is undergoing rehabilitation in the Atlanta area at the Shepherd Center. 

Courtney is making many trips to and from Georgia to be with him.  Several of you have asked what can we do to help her during this time.  If any of you wish to send her a note of encouragement and / or wish to give money, Nancy Donsbach will gladly ensure that she receives the notes and Nancy plans to buy gas cards for her to use as she makes these trips.

Check out Brian Henry's Caring Bridge Site. 

 Nashville / Cumberland River Disaster Relief

We have not been able to find if there is a centralized disaster recovery for local Rotary clubs and the victims of the Cumberland River floods in the Nashville area. I have not been able to find any information on the local club websites nor the District #6760's website. However, we have been told that the local Red Cross and Salavation Army are collecting non-perishable foods, any type of cleaning products (including brooms and mops),  plus there is a need for baby items such as diapers and formula. We will update the club if we hear of any specific efforts that are planned by the Nashville area clubs."
