Last week, Lindsay Toussant Brown stopped by Rotary seeking thoughts and opinions about ways to help grow the city of Council Bluffs. Everyone was able to add insight whether they were born and raised in CB or if they moved here just a few years ago.

If you'd like to stay up-to-date on all of the plans, follow Celebrate Council Bluffs, Iowa and share with your neighbors.

Rotarian Craig Showers did his best Paul McCartney/John Lennon impersonation and pleaded for "Help" with upcoming Rotary meetings, encouraging all Rotarians to volunteer a shift as greeter, thought & song or clipper.

Help Craig get his feet back on the ground. Sign up here: https://portal.clubrunner.ca/6088/Event/weekly-meetings-26-27

Thank you to Lenli Corbett Kountz from Saving Grace Perishable Food Rescue for stopping by yesterday and talking about how to eliminate food waste and help get nutritious, healthy food to people who need it.

We learned that 30% of food that is produced gets thrown away, but with some thought and intervention, that resource can be directed to people who can benefit. Not to mention, eliminating food waste is great for the planet, so it's a win-win-win! (There's probably a few other wins in there too.)

How wonderful is it that there are organizations who find solutions to problems in our community! Find out more: https://www.savinggracefoodrescue.org/

Keith Jones from Edward Jones dropped some poignant insight last week during our Thought & Song segment of our weekly meeting. Realizing that we only have so many opportunities -- so many First Days of School, so many Christmas mornings, so many Father's/Mother's Days -- means that it's important to savor each one and live every moment like it the precious resource it is.

If you haven't been to a Rotary meeting lately, you're missing out on connection and conversation. If you've NEVER been to a Rotary meeting, you should check us out. Send us a DM for more information about what we're all about.

Thank you so much to Richard Warner for stopping by Rotary yesterday and giving us some history from the last 200 years of Council Bluffs in honor of the 250th Anniversary of the United States. We are lucky to have a historian who digs in to the fascinating stories that make our city such a layered and beautiful place to live.
