Stories
Congressional Gold Medal
Dr. Mark Mosier, a local dentist and pilot,  provided the program last Wednesday on his family members who were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. This medal is the highest award available to civilians, and is for those who have performed an outstanding  deed or act of service in the national interest of the United States.
 
 
Mark's father and grandparents were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for their service and leadership during WWII while serving the the Civil Air Patrol in Herington, Kansas. In 1941, Congress approved using civilian aircraft and volunteers to help protect the mainland. Services included search and rescue, anti-submarine patrol and warfare,  intelligence gathering, and training and education.
 
 
Mark's father, who got his pilot's license when he was just 16, joined his parents in the Civil Air Patrol and trained troops and collected intelligence data. His grandfather was head of the large  Herington CAP unit, and his grandmother was head of intelligence and developed a navigational instruction classroom teaching system.
 
The discovery of Mark's father and grandparents roles in the war became apparent when documents and photos describing their service were found in a safe, which survived a building that had burned down in 2019. The documents were eventually handed over to the Civil Air Patrol, and the trio's accomplishments were rewarded with the Congressional Gold Medal.
 
 
 
Dave's Song
Dave Rittenhouse led us in the Junior Birdmen song. This was an national organization which started in the 1930's for boys and girls interested in aviation and model plane building, and was founded by the Heart newspaper organization.
Prayer and Pledge
Doug Whinnery led us in the prayer and pledge.
 
Rotary News you can Use

Families in Rotary:
 
Please keep Gena Daniel's husband Jim in your prayers, as he is still in the hospital.
Help needed for back to school supplies
Woody Lockhart told us about the Croc Center's program to help kids in need with their Back to School supplies. The Croc has information on the individual kids and a list of supplies that each one needs. Pick up a little school bus card at the Croc, which has the information.
 
 
Paul Harris award
 
Gerald Irion was presented his Paul Harris +6.
Congrats!
Wine is Fine
 
 
 
 
 
Leslie Rambin was wearing her Rotary pin when her name was called, so she won a bottle of wine.
