Tales from Trivia

The FIRST District 5500 Trivia Competition

Who loves to play Trivia? Last Friday evening, District Governor Diane Ventura-Goodyear and hubby Gordon Goodyear hosted the first District Trivia Games. Here's how you get the winner's edge on your Trivia team: be sure Chris Millar is on your team! Chris is definitely the King of Trivia. Barbara Barr also played, but it took her until the lightening round to really start scoring!

The Inside Story on the BIGHORN FIRE!

Adam Jarrold, The Bighorn Fire

At our August 6th meeting, we got the inside story on the Bighorn fire from Adam Jarrold of the Golder Ranch Fire District. Adam is a Captain and currently assigned as the Public Information Officer/Public Educator with the Golder Ranch Fire District. He has been with the District for 17 years, starting as a firefighter/paramedic and worked his way through the ranks until promotion to Captain in 2013.

We Made The Front Page!

Ringing In The New Year With Joe Guyton!

Our club made the front page of the SaddleBag Notes! 2020 has been good for our pubic image as we’ve been on the front page twice so far this year! In February we’re the headline article for the front page of the other paper, the SaddleBrooke Progress!

The Rotary/Toastmasters Connection

Rotary and Toastmasters have announced an alliance. The Rotary International Learning Center is incorporating a curriculum from Toastmasters with courses intended to help Rotarians become better communicators.

District 5500 wants to reach out to Toastmasters to help expand awareness of the mission and accomplishments of Rotary. Understanding each other better will come from Rotarians visiting Toastmaster clubs and by Toastmasters being invited to attend Rotary Club meetings.

PDG Ellie Patterson and District Governor Diane Ventura-Goodyear have embarked on a proactive project to make these interchanges happen.

They have asked District 5500 Rotarian Daniel Stringham, who has experience in Toastmasters and Rotary, to coordinate the interchanges. He began the project with a presentation about Toastmasters to The Rotary Club of Saddlebrooke.

If you have an interest in learning more about Toastmasters or to invite Daniel to your club for a presentation, contact him at barba_rosa77@yahoo.com or cell phone: 520-260-1095.

"Life's Silver Linings"

Marchelle L. Sellers
Spoke on "Life's Silver Linings"

Marchelle L. Sellers is the founder of the Pasadena Ronald McDonald House, a home away from home for families of children going through medical treatment nearby. Marchelle served as their Executive Director until 2008, and the house has now served over 16,000 families since opening. Marchelle and Dan Watson were in the same Rotary Club in Pasadena. Many thanks to Dan Watson for helping us arrange to have Marchelle as a speaker.
