Dalyn Novak's kids, Camille & Cole, had a great morning at the poultry show at the Platte Co. Fair this past week. They won Champion Egg Layer Breed & Reserve Champion Egg Layer Breed. Our other two hens received first in their breeds with ‘Best in Breed’ and ‘Best Variety.’ There was no rooster crowing contest this year so Roo still holds the ‘Noisiest Rooster in Platte Co.’ since 2021.
 
 
 
Rotary Fact of the Week!
 
50 Things Every Rotarian Should Know about Rotary 
by Steve Garret, District Governor 1994-95, District 5300

#2 - The Official Rotary Flag
An official flag was formally adopted by Rotary International at the 1929 Convention in Dallas, Texas. The Rotary flag consists of a white field with the official wheel emblem emblazoned in gold in the center of the field. The four depressed spaces on the rim of the Rotary wheel are colored royal blue. The words "Rotary" and "International" printed at the top and bottom depressions on the wheel rim are also gold. The shaft in the hub and the key way of the wheel are white.

The first official Rotary flag reportedly was flown in Kansas City Missouri, in January 1915. In 1922, a small Rotary flag was carried over the South Pole by Admiral Richard Byrd, a member of the Winchester, Virginia Rotary Club. Four years later, the admiral carried a Rotary flag in his expedition to the North Pole.
Some Rotary clubs use the official Rotary flag as a banner at club meetings. In these instances it is appropriate to print the words "Rotary Club" above the wheel symbol, and the name of the city, state or nation below the emblem.

The Rotary flag is always prominently displayed at the World Headquarters as well as at all conventions and official events of Rotary International.
