Dart Koedyker passed away on Tuesday morning in Florida, Dart was President of the Rotary Club of Crown Point 2003-2004.
It was during Dart's presidency that our Roatan Library project took root and continues to thrive, and in fact, is about to grow and move to a new home.
Dart was an active member of our club until his retirement. Since then he has been an Honorary Member – and it truly was an honor to have him as a member! He continued to actively attend our meetings right up through this year anytime he was home.
He was an amazing carpenter as well, guiding us through many Christmas in Septembers/Rebuilding Together projects.
We will miss him greatly!

This week you'll receive your letter from the Imagination Library Committee. We are starting our Community-wide campaign with our club. We want to achieve 100% participation from our club before we expand the campaign to the entire community. Remember for under 30/year we can provide a book each month delivered directly to a child aged from birth to 5! What a great investment in our community's future!!
Below is a letter I received from Marian Buchko, the principle at MacArthur School, Crown Point:
Dear Katherine,
Attached is a picture of “some” of the MacArthur students and parents that are part of the Imagination Library program. The students are holding some of the actual books they have received thanks to the Rotary. On behalf of MacArthur School thank you so much for this life changing project. To put books in the hands of students that wouldn’t otherwise have them is such a blessing.
Have a Great Day.
Marian

ORGANIZATIONS SUPPORT IMAGINATION LIBRARY PROJECT
CROWN POINT — Two local organizations have come together in support of a community based literacy project. The Crown Point Rotary Club and the Crown Point Community Foundation contributed $2,500 each allowing 200 children to participate in the Dolly Parton Imagination Library project. With additional support from Crown Point Rotary, 300 children are now enrolled!
The Dolly Parton Imagination Library is a literacy based program. Every month, participating children will receive an age appropriate book, delivered directly to their home, until they reach the age of 5. This program is FREE to the families – because of the generosity of both the Crown Point Rotary Club and the Crown Point Community Foundation.
“This is a new program for our organizations”, said Katherine Chariton, President of Crown Point Rotary. “CP Rotary is an active community organization supporting projects like: Shoes for Kids, Rotarian Library and Rebuilding Together of NWI. This program will interact directly with young families. We were happy to spearhead this project.”
The Crown Point Community Foundation is involved with financial support for the project as well as serving on the committee as project participant. Mary Nielsen, President of the CPCF, believes literacy is a huge factor in preparing children for kindergarten. “In the past several years, the CPCF has focused much attention on literacy projects. It takes only $25.70 a year to provide one child a book each month. We are hopeful more donors will get involved. Our goal is to reach families with children under five.”
The Foundation and Rotary are partnering with the Crown Point Community Schools to identify the first 300 families. Mary Ann Chapko, Principal of Eisenhower Elementary, is helping to coordinate the project. Other members of the team are: Brad Belush, Bette Oesterle and Sue Riester.
For more information on the Imagination Library Project or to sponsor a child, please contact Crown Point Rotary at 219.663.0110. You can make an online gift at: www.theCPCF.org search for the Crown Point Rotary Fund and donate now.

  The Rotary Club of Lowell is hosting the Harlem Ambassadors on Monday, Oct 17,2016 at Lowell High School 7PM. The club is helping raise money for the IWIN Foundation which is a women's cancer group in Indiana. In addition they will also will be raising money for our Rotary high school scholarships given to civic minded students.
President Jesse Forrester says " the club has a separate fund setup to help buy tickets for students who can't afford to go, so even if you can't go, you may want to just chip in a few bucks - that works great too. :)"

Kassie Gre  ep, a Crown Point High School freshman, scrapes paint off a house on Harrison Street before the Crown Point Rotary team paints the house as part of the Rebuilding Together 2016 one-day project.
Rebuilding Together of South Lake County was in Lowell on Sept. 17. This group is made up of public minded individuals, business, unions and corporations to be able to reach out and help low income people, those who are physically challenged, and vets who are homeowners to get necessary repair or maintenance work done on their houses to maintain the quality of life, and security for all the household members. The applicants have to furnish information documenting the total household income. This group was at one time part of the well known National group called Christmas in September.
This organization of energy-filled people serves just four communities, one each year. This year was Lowell's turn. In future years it will be Merrillville, Cedar Lake, Crown Point and then back to Lowell.
Ten houses were selected in Lowell this year. There was a great deal of difference in what was needed being done at each home. Cost estimates ranged from just $500 in one place to over $2,000 in another.

Imagination Library Impacting Children's Lives

 What a great start we've had for this Rotary year!
Your participation is appreciated more than you can imagine!
I’ve designated September as Crown Point Rotary’s Imagination Library Month!
As the school children get ready to go back to school I’d like us to focus on those children who won’t enter the school system for another 1-5 years! In particular those children who don’t have all the gifts of time and family available to help them prepare for life’s journey.
Rotary International’s service partnership with The Dollywood Foundation’s Dolly Parton Imagination Library provides opportunities to collaborate in support of basic education by fostering a lifelong love of reading and learning from an early age. Through this partnership, children receive access to age-appropriate reading materials to help establish a strong educational foundation early in life.
Crown Point Rotary joined in on this effort a year and a half ago. With Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library we have committed to providing a book a month for up to 300 children in our community for the next 5 years. We are only able to do this because of our partnership with Rotary District 6540, Crown Point Community Foundation, and you!
While 300 children is quite a few, there are over 750 families within our own community that are in need! The need is obviously bigger than our club can take on alone. We are launching an internal initiative this month and our goal is to get 100% participation from our members.
After our internal initiative, with the help of Crown Point Community Schools Corp, we will be rolling the initiative out to the community. The ultimate goal is to set up an Endowment for the community to provide books to all pre-school children in need for years to come.
A fund has been established with the Crown Point Community Foundation, the Crown Point Rotary Foundation Fund, all donations to this fund will be tax deductible.

We successfully launched our Imagination Library Literacy Project and have registered 200 children birth to 5 years old of low income families in the program!
The Imagination Library, fosters a love of reading among preschool children by providing them with a free high quality, age-appropriate book every month from birth to the age of five. The program supports early childhood literacy and a life long love of reading by creating excitement about books. The program insures that every child will have access to books, regardless of their family’s income.

Our Centenial Project is Complete! Our trailhead clock tower project has been in the making for 5 years as a celebration of Rotary's 100th birthday. We're thrilled to see this collaborative project come to fruition. What a beauty it is!
 
The Erie Lackawanna (EL) Trail represents the longest contiguous trail in Northwest Indiana, running 17-miles from Crown Point north to Hammond. This trail passes through wetlands and open space on an unusually wide, paved corridor. The EL is a popular thoroughfare that lends green space to an urban landscape on this rail-trail with connections to five neighboring communities. At the southern end in Crown Point, the EL starts at Summit Street, just west of Main Street, or State Road 55. The trailhead is brand new as of the summer of 2014 and features a 20-car parking lot, bathrooms, a drinking fountain and a seating plaza, complete with a large shelter replicating an old train depot.

Have you wondered how you can give back, have a more meaningful connection to your community and make lifelong friends with others with a giving spirit?
Our club is continuously looking to grow our membership with other community minded leaders. Our weekly meetings are held on Wednesdays at 12:10pm at Youche Country Club in Crown Point. You are welcome to to join us as a guest at our weekly meetings to determine if our club may be a good fit for you.
About Rotary... We volunteer (Jack Barber's Shoes for Kids, Roatán Library & Scholarships, Brews, Blues & BBQ, Rebuilding Together, Hope Tree, Service Projects, Literacy Initiatives, etc.) but we also build meaningful relationships with community leaders, provide leadership development, and other personal and professional benefits such as hearing regularly from great speakers.
A good Rotarian will attend as many of our meetings as possible. When traveling you may pick up a "make up" from another club. Attendance is important but it doesn't have to be at your home club!
Our members pay quarterly dues. Our dues include lunch, district and international dues as well as a contribution to Rotary International.
Rotary International is by far the largest service club in the world with 1.2 million Rotarians, 32,000 clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas. It is interesting and fun, when traveling, to attend a local club's meeting. Rotarians and their guests are always welcome at any meeting anywhere in the world. It's neat to hear about other clubs projects and how they raise money to fund them.
Who are Rotary's members? The movers and shakers in our communities. Our club gives you an opportunity to join leaders to take action on important issues affecting our community, our nation, and the world. We also have a lot of fun — whether we’re socializing or working together on service projects. Members of our Rotary club connect at weekly meetings and learn from business experts, political and civic leaders, and entrepreneurs, who help us stay informed on topics that are relevant to our community. Together, we are make great things happen. We have a structure that focuses on action and positive results.

There's a special feeling you get when you fill a need, solve a problem or simply make life better for someone else. You feel it when you give money to a cause you believe in, take food to a sick neighbor or help a friend in need. Here's your chance to identify volunteer opportunities and become an integral part of cultural change by giving back in your own community.

We received a message from a gentleman in Florida (thank you Jerry Flaherty!) who inquired on a dollar bill he had come across that was signed by ~40 Rotarians and stamped with the Crown Point Rotary emblem. Some of our long time members informed us that when a soldier was home on leave during WWII the club would have them to lunch. The bill was signed by everyone. It was a good luck charm as the club was always with them. Our club is rich with tradition!
