"The oldest continuously operating club in the world south of the Tropic of Cancer"
Dear fellow Rotarians,
Last Tuesday we held our annual meeting to elect our board for next year. We discussed several issues important to our club. Next Tuesday we will have a presential meeting with Ballet Concierto. I am sure that it will be very special. Please come and enjoy it.
I wish all a happy Thanksgiving and Holidays.
I will continue to contact as many members as I can but please feel free to call me, send me a message or an email with your comments. My phone is 787-649-9426 and my email is ajcolorado@msn.com.
See you next Tuesday.
My very best to you all, and may God Bless,
Tito

San Juan Rotarians and their guests enjoyed a special treat when Ballet Concierto's Executive Director, Sandra Almodovar Filiberti, gave a fact-filled resume of the Ballet's dedication to childhood education and performance. This is the Ballet's 40th Anniversary Year - a special time for them. Artistic Director, Victor Gili Mendez and two dancers, Camila Rosado and Dalliany Rivera were also present. The young dancers were able to cover AFDA's limited "stage" with two graceful performances. Donations to the Ballet are most welcomed by Mail: Ballet Concierto de Puerto Rico, PO Box 41265, San Juan, PR 00940-1265, or Tel: 787-724-7032.
Many thanks to fellow Rotarian, Lance Brilliantine, who arranged for our program.

Dear fellow Rotarians,
The Rotary Club of San Juan has the honor of hosting Resident Commissioner Rep. Jenniffer Gonzalez as our Speaker on October 13, 2020. We “ring the bell” at 12:30 PM and introduce the Speaker at 12:45PM.
Her presentation will be focused on Economic Development and Healthcare. Given the importance of these issues and our Speaker’s unquestionable expertise to address them, the club has made the decision to open the meeting to all District 7000 Rotarians who would like to join us. Our meetings are held in English and for the time being, totally virtual. All those who want to join us please use the ZOOM link provided in this email
Cordially,
Franklin Earle,
President
CONGRATULATIONS to JOSE "PEPITO" RIVERO OLMEDO, who was honored by District 7000 for his outstanding efforts as Editor of San Juan Rotary's e-Garita. The weekly newsletter delivers the Rotary message and our Club activities to members and island fellow Rotarians.
In her presentation Attorney Calero she cover macro events from 2000 to the present, including investment, consumption, employment and unemployment tendencies. The challenges we face in these time, as well as the delays in recuperation funds will also be covered. But I think most of us will be most interested in Covid 19 impact, and the executive orders and their impact on consumer patterns, and their short term impact.
DISTRICT GOVERNOR Juanita Valentin Morris presented Rotary International's 100 YEARS OF MEMBERSHIP certificate to Club President Pepito. in recognition of San Juan Rotary's century of the Object of Rotary, Service Above Self.
