This Friday's speaker is Scott Leckman, End Polio Now Coordinator, a general surgeon and a member of the Rotary Club of Salt Lake City. In 2020, he was one of some 50 Rotarians worldwide to be recognized with the Regional Service Award for a Polio-Free World.

This special award is given by the Trustees of The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International for significant active personal support of Rotary’s greatest “service above self” project, the final and forever eradication of polio.

Join us at noon at Kristall's Restaurant in Leavenworth.

Congratulations to Leavenworth Rotary Club member Bill Bruders, and his wife Laura, on this recognition!

Their story is rooted in history, built with heart, and focused on growing a legacy for the next generation.

Meet Laura Bruders Torres and Bill Bruders of Neu Flessenow Cellars, finalists for Entrepreneur of the Year at the 25th Annual Innovator Awards!

Inspired by their family's journey from Flessenow, Germany, in 1882, Laura and Bill have transformed generations of family history into something uniquely their own: a small-batch winery nestled in the Leavenworth area.

They are dedicated to hands-on winemaking, sustainable practices, and genuine hospitality. Their business brings together family heritage and a strong sense of community.

Their entrepreneurial spirit goes beyond the winery. They bring people together and recently organized a H***y Tonk fundraiser to support young innovator Elliot Tiegel and his OhmLife concept. This shows their commitment to investing in the next generation.

Because great entrepreneurs don't just build businesses. They help others grow, too.

Congratulations to Laura and Bill!

The Entrepreneur of the Year Award is proudly presented by Key Methods.

Join us November 3 at the Wenatchee Convention Center as we celebrate 25 years of innovation and the people making a difference across North Central Washington!

Our speaker this Friday is Julie Banken, who describes herself as a garden ecologist. Julie will answer a common question asked in the Master Gardener Plant Clinic and explain how it relates to the work Rotary does in its pollinator gardens around District 5060.

She is a certified bug lady with master’s degrees in both entomology and education who loves the insects as much as the plants in her yard. Julie has made it her mission to inspire others to feel the same. She has taught science in the classroom and outdoors, and is glad for the opportunity to continue teaching as both a Master Gardener and a Xerces Society Ambassador.

Julie is also a member of the Sunrise Rotary Club in Wenatchee and is on the district's Rotary Youth Exchange committee.

Visitors are always welcome! Rotary meets every Friday at noon at Kristall's Restaurant.

This week's speaker is Joe Aponik, a licensed physical therapist, board certified as a specialist in orthopedic rehabilitation, working at Cascade Medical Center. One of the more enjoyable ways Joe has merged profession, family and community has been through coaching youth sports and providing sports medicine consultation to teams, students and coaches at Cascade School District.

Visitors are always welcome at our meetings, every Friday at noon, at Kristall's Restaurant. Come meet some really nice people and see what Rotary is about!

In Colombia, women coffee farmers are cultivating more than coffee.

Through a Rotary-supported project, 36 women farmers strengthened their skills and learned new farming practices to improve crop quality, diversify their crops, and increase their incomes. Together, they’ve already planted more than 46,000 coffee saplings, bringing new life to underused land.

The results? Greater economic opportunities for families, more resilient communities, and lasting change rooted in local leadership.

This is what happens when people come together, share knowledge, and invest in solutions that can grow for generations.

Feeling inspired? The Service Project Center has everything you need: https://on.rotary.org/4cMnfJ8
