MV Rotary To Air TV Show To Help People Get Hired!

The MV Rotary is sponsoring and creating a television show to help people who are unemployed find work.

The show will be manned by people who are unemployed and will feature experts in the job hunting process giving valuable tips on the challenges that the unemployed face. The show will also give individuals who are unemployed the opportunity to give a 30 second free commercial about themselves in the hopes that an employer will find them and hire them.

The show will be taped locally and will be shared with cable stations throughout the area. There will be two half hour shows each month that will be aired several times throughout the month. For more information contact mvrotary@gmail.com.

Blogging Rotaries Together...One Rotarian's Goal!

MV Rotarian Dan LeBlanc has been visiting Rotaries in the Merrimack Valley area of Massachusetts to promote the idea of creating and linking Rotary Club Blogs together.


Dan's goal is to have all the Blogs linked together for two reasons. First of all, anyone who is researching Rotaries in this area can easily serf from one to the other. And secondly, all the Rotaries in the area can easily keep up with the happenings of each other

Why Blogs instead of Web pages? According to Dan, because Blogs are much more flexible than Web Pages. Articles, photos, power point presentations and more can be easily and quickly added. to the Blog. Plus all members can contribute to the Blog whereas only a few people contribute to the Web page.

So far three Rotaries have created Blogs: Merrimack Valley. Westford and Bedford. Dan has more presentations to come in the upcoming weeks.

Rotarians Hear About The Advantages Of Real Estate Investments


MV Rotarians learned about in investing in Real Estate from Nick Aalerud a local Investment Specialist and a licensed Realtor.
Nick said that now is a good time to invest in real estate because of all the foreclosures that are out there. He said that each day 8000 homes are foreclosed on . So the opportunities are there now

According to Nick, real estate investments are secure investments; they supplement your income; they build capital and long term wealth; they provide cash flow and there are tax advantages to such investments.

Nick said that: 'Success comes to those who take action."

Living the Good Life!




Where in the world are Carl and Wendy? In Aspen of course! Don't worry, they'll be back when the snow melts. Looks like they're having a great time.
