ROLLS.    A SHOT OF PART OF THE CLUB SHOWS MEMBERS  EATING DINNER AFTER THE LONGER THAN USUAL TABLE PRAYER BY PASTOR ERIC ELKIN.    THEN PATTI HAMILTON OF JACKSON COUNTY HOSPICE GAVE THE PROGRAM TELLING EVERYTHING WE NEEDED AND WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT HOSPICE.  HOSPICE IS BEING USED MORE AND MORE AND WITH GOOD REASON.    CONTACT HER OR STOP AT THE HOSPICE OFFICE ON 611 WEST QUARRY STREET, ACROSS THE STREET SOUTH OF THE HOSPITAL.    ON THE OTHER SIDE,  NORTH OF THE HOSPITAL, HOSPICE OWNS THE FORMER PARK ALONG THE RIVER AND THE HOPE IS TO BUILD THE HOSPICE OFFICE AND PATIENT BUILDING THERE.   THIS WILL MEAN A MAJOR FUND RAISING DRIVE.
PASTOR ELKIN ANNOUNCED TO THE CLUB THAT HE WILL BE LEAVING HIS
POSITION OF DIRECTOR OF CAMP SHALOM NORTHWEST OF MAQUOKETA ON THE CAVES ROAD.    HE SAID HE HAS DECIDED THAT A CHANGE FOR HIM AND
THE CAMP WOULD BE GOOD AT THIS TIME.    HE AWAITS A CALL TO GO BACK TO BEING A CHURCH PASTOR (HOPEFULLY IN HIS HOME STATE OF MINNESOTA) AND HIS BOARD HAS STARTED ADVERTISING TO FILL HIS POSITION.   HE EXPECTS THIS TO TAKE TWO OR THREE MONTHS AND WILL  REMAIN IN HIS POSITION UNTIL THEN.      HE SAT ACROSS FROM ME AND I LEARNED SOME INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE CAMP.    WHEN HE
STARTED THERE IN 2001, IT SERVED 450 KIDS THAT YEAR.    LAST YEAR,
1200 ATTENDED THE CAMP.   IT'S ANNUAL BUDGET IN 2001 WAS $90,000 AND NOW IS $600,000.      THEN IT HAS 105 ACRES, NOW 322 ACRES.   THERE WERE 10 BUILDINGS WHEN HE JOINED THE CAMP (AT THAT TIME RUN BY ST. PAUL'S LUTHERAN  CHURCH IN DAVENPORT) AND TODAY THERE ARE 22.    WHEN HE STARTED THE SUMMER STAFF NUMBERED 10.  THIS PAST SUMMER, THE STAFF TOTALED 45.    IT IS NOW NOT CHURCH AFFILIATED BUT RUN AS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT BUSINESS.    CAMPING IS OPEN TO ANYONE.    PASTOR
ERIC IS A FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE MAQUOKETA ROTARY CLUB.     WE
WILL MISS HIM!    WE WILL NEED TO REPLACE HIM!  HAVE YOU CONSIDERED
JOINING  ROTARY IF NOT ALREADY A MEMBER?
