September is New Generations Month
-----------
This year, the Interact program
marks its 50th anniversary.
The first
Interact club was chartered 5 November 1962 at Melbourne High School, Florida,
USA,
a few months after the program was approved by the Rotary International
Board of Directors.
The club and its 39 charter members were sponsored by the
Rotary Club of Melbourne.
Interact’s
name is a combination of “international” and “action.”
Interact clubs are
sponsored by Rotary clubs, which provide support and guidance,
but they are
self-governing and self-supporting.
Interact is open to young men and women,
ages 12-18.
The following are a few historic facts and
firsts:
- On 14 January 1963, the Interact Club of St. Peter’s High School
- became the first Interact club outside the United States
- . It was sponsored by the Rotary Club of Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, India.
- The first club in Africa was chartered 20 September 1963 at H.H. Aga Khan High School, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Mombasa, Kenya.
- The Interact program grew to 290 clubs in 25 countries
- and geographical areas within its first year.
- In January 2010, the RI Board of Directors lowered the minimum age from 14 to 12.
- In 2011, there were 13,500 Interact clubs in 138 countries and geographical areas.
and new Interact Certificates of Organization will feature a
50th anniversary logo.

some Good Advice
watch it all
There's a guy with a Doberman
Pincher and a guy with a Chihuahua. The guy with the Doberman Pincher says
to the guy with the Chihuahua, "Let's go over to that restaurant and get
something to eat."
The guy with the Chihuahua
says, "We can't go in there. We've got dogs with us."
The guy with the Doberman
Pincher says, "Just follow my lead."
They walk over to the
restaurant. The guy with the Doberman Pincher puts on a pair of dark
glasses and he starts to walk in. A guy at the door says, "Sorry mac,
no pets allowed."
The guy with the Doberman
Pincher says, "You don't understand. This is my seeing-eye dog."
The guy at the door says,
"A Doberman Pincher?"
He says, "Yes, they're
using them now, they're very good."
The guy at the door says,
"Come on in."
The guy with the Chihuahua
figures "what the hell," so he puts on a pair of dark glasses and
starts to walk in.
The guy at the door says,
"Sorry pal, no pets allowed."
The guy with the Chihuahua
says, "You don't understand. This is my seeing-eye dog."
The guy at the door says,
"A Chihuahua?"
He says, "You mean they
gave me a Chihuahua?"

A gushy reporter told
Phil Mickelson, “You are spectacular, your name is synonymous with the game of
golf. You really know your way around the course. What’s your secret?”
Mickelson replied, “The holes are numbered.”
