    Internationally, the Club participates in Rotary International’s End Polio Now campaign. Since launching this landmark program in 1985, Rotary International’s 33,000 local Clubs have donated more than $800 million to the cause of polio eradication world-wide.

    The Rotary Club of Sedona’s latest community project is the “Imagination Library”, a program started by entertainer Dolly Parton, which provides free, age appropriate books to preschool children. The Club introduced this project in 2012 and to date 48% of Sedona’s eligible pre-school children receive a free book monthly until their fifth birthday.

    The Rotary Club of Sedona meets every Tuesday noon at the Barking Frog Grille. The club’s mission is to enhance community through service, teamwork and friendship.

    What Would I Change?
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    What would I change if I could? You and I both know I can’t, but it’s a fun exercise anyway. I would have been less of a know-it-all on my spiritual journey. It seems to be a side-effect of the path. Spiritual folks develop an all-knowing buffer to protect against their inevitable surrender to the unknown, but understanding that now didn’t make it gentler on me or those I loved, let alone those that I deemed not capable of getting it 😉 Yeah … I’d have dropped the spiritual snob act. I’d have recognized that spiritual radicals are only different on the outside from radical right Christians, and that the surface doesn’t really matter as much as I thought. We are all doing our couldn’t be otherwise things, playing our perfect roles. I’d have learned to bow down humbly before my fellow man, regardless of whether I agreed with him or not. We’re all in this together and not one of us will get out alive. Read more→
