Last week (July 22nd) our speaker was Mark Strauss who will discuss his latest production.
 
The film is called “The Funeral Photographer,” and is written and produced by Mark Strauss, along with a team of passionate creatives who are working on the project including local and regional actors who have been in productions such as Chicago Fire. Award-winning Chicago film Director Ashley Thompson directs the short film.

According to the motion picture website IDMB the storyline takes place, “When Julie steps into a funeral home for what appears to be an ordinary photography job, it will transform what we think we know about love, loss, and remembrance.”
 
On July 15th Suzy Vance presented the Strive Program stories featuring the 2017 Strive Class.  See below for details of the meeting.

Join the Strive Program
July 15th we had our first meeting to learn about the STRIVE Program, geared to students who are the first generation to seek formal education beyond high school. A video of former students sharing what they learned and how they benefited from the STRIVE program was shown. Other students who have graduated from college and moved out into the "real world" will be with us later in August. Learn what a difference this program. Can make in a high school student's life...with just one meeting a month with a mentor in a group...all together...can make! Sign up today by submitting your application for a criminal background check. You'll be in good company with other Rotarians.
