Good morning O'Fallon! This morning we were joined by Dr. Tron Young, Principal at Fulton Junior High and author of Be the Thermostat, not the Thermometer. Tron reminded us that we remember those in our lives that have made a memory for us, not just an award winner. A thermometer reports the temperature, but a thermostat sets the temperature, it brings the environment back to a set condition, so set the condition you want with three principles.

1. Pay attention to the temperature, pay attention to the people
2. Choose your response. We can't control other things, but we can control ourselves
3. Leave the environment better than you found it. It doesn't have to be a grand gesture, just one degree at a time.

Remember, your kids, his students, are O'Fallon's future!

Wednesday morning we were joined by Mellissa Tutterow, Director of Development, at The Violence Prevention Center (VPC), Southwestern Illinois. The VPC is partnering for prevention. One in three women experience intimate partner violence and many victims wish they knew there was a stranger they could call to avoid judgment and embarrassment.

The VPC operates a local hotline and answers 30 calls a day. In addition to the hotline, they have Emergency Shelter, Rapid Rehousing, Counseling, Legal Advocacy, and Community Education. You can support a victim by listening and referring them to resources. Hotline: 618-235-0892, Website: vpcswi.org. ’fallonil

Good morning O'Fallon! We had a great start to the day with Carrier Hruby, District 90 Superintendent, and our newest Rotarian, Mario Franco. Welcome, Mario! It's great to welcome new friends into our club to help support our community.

Carrie always gives a great update, and this was no different. She highlighted what's happened over the last decade and what is to come. District 90s tax rate has decreased from 3.1668 to 2.8839, and they have improved their financial profile, allowing lower bond costs. All the schools have dramatically improved security, keeping students and teachers safe. Additionally, District 90 is working with McKendree University on a path to develop certified teachers. Carrie also provided much more information than posted here.

Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and great attitude with us.

Good morning. We normally have a key speaker but this morning we switched to a business meeting. This meant we had not one, but several great speakers. Martha Eggers started us off with a little history of Labor Day, preparing us for the holiday and a day for our club to put out flags all over O'Fallon. Next, Mike Nowobilski updated us on our latest work in Malawi and how we can help over the next year. Then we invited up Jim and Karen Sparkle. They are providing beds for kids all over the Metro East through Sleep in Heavenly Peace and have a workday on Sep 12th to build 75 more beds. Finally, we inducted our newest member, Rich Lemieux.

This was a very busy and informative business meeting. It's always great to hear from old friends and welcome new ones!

We skipped our normal Sunrise meeting and opted for Sunrise @ Sunset at Syberg’s O’Fallon. We have a few folks out of town finishing up their summer, but it was a lively group tonight with plenty of stories. Every social event we learn more about our members, neighbors and community, what a great group of people. ’fallonil

Good morning O'Fallon! We had a very informative presentation this morning by Dr. Jessica Weis with Family Eye Care of O'Fallon. Dr. Weis focused on dry eye and macular degeneration, discussing symptoms, causes, and several treatment advances now available.

Treatments for dry eyes include specific wavelengths of visible light and radio frequencies. These can reduce inflammation and bacterial load, improve oil gland function, and support healing. Treatment for macular degeneration includes vitamins and, if needed, injections. New developments and improvements are reducing the number and interval of injections and light therapy that can help slow progression of the disease. If you have any vision issues, see your eye doctor. Family Eye Care of O'Fallon can be found at https://ofallonfec.com. ’fallonil
