The Woodbury Lunch and Breakfast Clubs have united for the purpose of raising funds to provide one ShelterBox for Haitian Earthquake Relief . A ShelterBox cost $1,000.00 delivered to the recipient. This is an unfunded challenge that we’ve accepted. Pres Jim and the members present at Tuesday's lunch meeting agreed to solicit the membership to raise our $500.00 share. The membership recommended that a $25 per member will reach our $500.00 goal

| Rotary Factoid |
| Through International Service programs such as World Community Service, Rotarians became citizens of the world. This concept was considered progressive when the RI Board of Directors first adopted it in 1949 with the statement "Attributes of a World-Minded Rotarian."
World War II was over, and Rotary played an important role in the formation of the United Nations and UNESCO. The Board urged all Rotarians to influence their own governments to adopt policies that would lead to "international understanding and goodwill toward all peoples."

| Business Note of the Day |
|
The Delaware River is the longest un-dammed river east of the Mississippi, extending 330 miles from the confluence of its East and West branches at Hancock, N.Y. to the mouth of the Delaware Bay where it meets the Atlantic Ocean. The river is fed by 216 tributaries, the largest being the Schuylkill and Lehigh Rivers in Pennsylvania. In all, the basin contains 13,539 square miles. Included in the total area number is the 782 square-mile Delaware Bay, which lies roughly half in New Jersey and half in Delaware.
New York City gets approximately half its water from three large reservoirs located on tributaries to the Delaware. The Delaware Bay is only a gas tank away for about 23 percent of the people living in the U.S.
