Iraq history recalled for
Rotary Club
By Barbara Gartman
Monitor Staff Writer
GUN BARREL CITYIraqi history and the Muslim religion are
not easily understood by most Americans and those of the Christian
faith.
Rotarian Dale Molander was the keynote speaker at the weekly Rotary Club
of Cedar Creek Lake.
Molander gave a brief history of Iraq from its beginning in the 1920s
as Britain drew up lines that defined the countrys borders to the
religious lines that have separated its people for many hundreds of
years.
He listed the neighboring countries: Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Kuwait and
Iran along with a short description of their styles of government.
In other business, club president Barbara Turner announced:
Rotarians will be volunteering as bell ringers for the Salvation Army
Saturday, Dec. 2.
the food committee members have been chosen. Members include Bruce
Easley, Russell Marshall, Ronnie Davis and Colleen Hinckley.
The committee will try to choose a varied menu for the weekly luncheon.
October attendance was 77 percent. Turner said those who have missed a
meeting still have time to attend another rotary meeting or to make it
up on the Internet.
there will be no Rotary meeting Friday, Nov. 24, the day after
Thanksgiving.
the first book give-away for Eustace Primary School is scheduled for
9:30 a.m. Friday, Nov. 17.
