Today's Rotary meeting was filled with Sunshine despite the purple clouds above and the threats of rain. Bill introduced the concept that 9 is the new midnight. Many begrudgingly agreed. Although our sergeant at arms was missing in action, fines were leveled for missing pins and lots of happy dollars were shared. Not a single sad dollar was volunteered.
Our speaker was Harry Jay Levin, Esq. of Levin Cyphers on the subject of Hot Topics for Business Owners, but the his presentation presented information relevant to both individuals and businesses alike. He remind us about the importance of 1) knowing your rights and employee handbooks in the context of the work environment and the handling of disputes in that context; 2) your rights in the context of consumer fraud, 3) important considerations in structuring an organization and how to protect the benefits by such structuring; and 4) being cautious when writing an e-mail.
Next week is the Installation and Scholarships Luncheon, so it will certainly be festive. Also a reminder that the Food and Wine and Golf Outings are just around the corner, so stay tuned for more details and ways to get involved.
Remember to read the entire COGS as the color of the day is hidden within.
The recent meeting was filled with energy and enthusiasm. Our current president Doug was celebrating his second to last meeting in office, while Steve was invite his own future impeachment. As always Bill presented his humor as Sunshine, but he also hinted at his musical talents suggesting we may soon be hearing his own rendition of the song "Day Oh" at a future meeting.
Out Sargent at Arms, Jay, sought to do his worst with fines, but he was confronted with by our active membership who remembers their pins and arrives on time. Nevertheless, Jay turned a little red when faced with the prospect of fining his father. Steve, however, volunteered to post the bail and paid the fine.
There were lots of Happy Dollars with reasons to be happy about. This included the passing of the COG's torch to Stuart, Jimmy's atrial fibrillation being under control, Mike having a speedy recovery, Steve's daughter taking a neurosurgery fellowship, the Red Bank 5k classic having lots of participants scheduled to run, Father's Day, etc. Lots of reasons to celebrate and be happy.
Our meeting was also filled with plenty of food for thought. Kim Rowe and Sarah Fischell of the Citizen's Climate Lobby did a presentation on what we can do about climate change. We all agree that this is a very important issue for discussion. Although debate may have been sparked about approaches, the discussion alone gives reason to inspire hope that our many different perspective may eventually find a resolution to make a better world for the future.
Don't forget the Food and Wine event as well as the Golf outing are just around the corner and we need your support, your energy and your enthusiasm.
El Jefe Doug rang the bell at 12:22 - followed by the, prayer (Bill Saloukas) and 4 way test.
The wisecracking Bill Saloukas ended his joke with 'you may not have a pit to hiss in'

SPEAKER: Bill Linderman introduced Rob Elfstrom , he is the creator of the TOVA water purification system. Tova’s Water Purification Station (WS25) operates as a stationary stand-alone unit. ​It is skid-mounted for either mobile or permanent installations and will produce up to 20,000 gallons of EPA/WHO-standard potable water per day. The unit is powered by its integrated solar panels. It also supports optional power sources such as wind turbine , battery, 2.5kw generator, and AC line voltage (50-60hz, 30-300v).
The WS25 is simple, tough and easy to maintain. There are no automatic valves, high-tech/high maintenance hardware, sensitive electronics or hydraulics. The unit is engineered for deployment and can be operation in less than 10 minutes. This unit simultaneous produces non-potable water for both agriculture and hygienic purposes such as drip irrigation, cattle washing/feeding, bathing, and laundry, etc.​
The WS25 is built for rough terrain overland travel, air-drop, and/or seaborne delivery. Engineered for long-term trouble-free service and little to no maintenance. The design objective satisfies the need for mobile water treatment plant that requires no hardware such as chemical, cartridge filters or other water purification products. A post-treatment, fully mechanical metered injection pump also ensures the integrity of previously compromised storage facilities when operated as an online chlorination.​
​The WS25 is designed to pump and purify water to EPA/WHO standards at a rate of 40 gpm, dependent upon TSS/turbidity levels. Each unit is equipped with 1 pump that will handle source water wells, bore holes, lakes, ponds, rivers, streams, agricultural ponds, and catch basins (both deep-set low GPM and high volume shallow-set). Existing water mains where water in not portable can be piped into and out of unit for purification. Pumping depth is a maximum of 300 ft (options of different pumps can be engineered to unit, i,e. 3 gpm to 60 gpm with possible depths of 1 meter to 183 meters. The unit produces drinking water free of organic, non-organic, biological and viral contamination under any and all power options. The WS25 design eliminates impurities from large sediment through to the point of bacteriological and virus removal at the UV stage.

Membership in the Arch Klumph Society is lifelong. Each member has the opportunity to have his or her portrait placed in the Arch Klumph Society Gallery, located on the 17th floor of Rotary International World Headquarters in Evanston, Illinois, USA. Portraits are etched on glass plaques to create a stunning display of our Foundation's most valued supporters. This photo is of Nick and Alma Michals.
