Rotary’s influence,
Dolly’s Imagination Library puts books into the hands of children
Posted on March 9, 2012
By David Dotson, president of the Dollywood Foundation

The wonderful partnership between Dolly Parton and Rotary International
continues to flourish in communities both large and small all across the
 USA, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
Although every community approaches the program in its own way,
 one thing impresses me much more than dollars raised or even time invested
–and this is the enormous influence Rotarians exert in their communities.
On many occasions, we have witnessed how Rotarians use their influence to leverage
 support from both the public and private sector.
Rotarians bring instant credibility to the table and consequently,
local, state and provincial governments are eager to join forces with Rotary
 and Dolly to bring the Imagination Library to their children.
 Likewise many Rotary clubs have been successful in teaming up with United Way
to launch the program in their communities.
Influence is an earned commodity and we are fortunate that the decades of good will
 and great work of Rotary now benefits the children of the Imagination Library

On a Lighter note

This should make you laugh

Working on the road
A fellow stopped at a rural gas station and, after filling his tank,
 he paid the bill and bought a soft drink.
 He stood by his car to drink his cola and he watched a couple of men working along the roadside
. One man would dig a hole two or three feet deep and then move on.
 The other man came along behind and filled in the hole.
 While one was digging a new hole, the other was about 25 feet behind filling in the old
. The men worked right past the fellow with the soft drink
 and went on down the road.
 "I can't stand this," said the man tossing the can in a trash container
 and heading down the road toward the men.
"Hold it, hold it," he said to the men.
 "Can you tell me what's going on here with this digging?"
"Well, we work for the county government, " one of the men said.
"But one of you is digging a hole and the other is filling it up.
You're not accomplishing anything.
 Aren't you wasting the county's money?"
"You don't understand, mister,"
 one of the men said, leaning on his shovel and wiping his brow
. "Normally there's three of us--me, Rodney and Mike.
I dig the hole, Rodney sticks in the tree and Mike here puts the dirt back."
"Yea," piped up Mike.
 "Now just because Rodney's sick, that don't mean we can't work, does it?"

  3. With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of
    plagorism or copyright infringement? My website has a
    lot of completely unique content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any methods to help prevent content from being stolen? I'd definitely appreciate it.

  5. Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren't loading properly. I'm not sure why but I think its
    a linking issue. I've tried it in two different web browsers and both show the same outcome.
