Little Free Libraries Coming to Greece N.Y. 
The Greece Rotary Club extends an invitation to Greece residents and businesses to join them in promoting reading in our community. While supplies last, Greece Rotary will provide a premade book house to persons interested in becoming a Little Free Library steward. Book houses are handcrafted structures filled with donated books to share with neighbors of all ages.
 
The libraries are typically placed in easily accessible locations, front yards, parks or gardens. Users are encouraged to take a book and replace a book.
The Little Free Library is a non-profit organization that aims to inspire a love of reading, build community and spark creativity by fostering neighborhood book exchanges around the world.
 
More than a dozen Little Free Library book houses will be distributed throughout the town. 
The steward is responsible for painting, installing and maintaining the library for a minimum of three years. All libraries will be registered with the Little Free Library worldwide organization at the Rotary club’s expense.
 
For more information about becoming a registered library steward, please visit littlefreelibrary.org. The application for Greece stewardship can be found at greecerotary.org and submissions are appreciated by September 30th, 2018.
 
Completed applications can be mailed to Greece Rotary Club, P.O Box 16106, Rochester, New York 14616 or e-mailed to greecerotarylfl@gmail.com. Chosen recipients will be notified.  For other questions, call 585-723-6161.

Thank-You Odyssey Interact Students 
The Odyssey Interact Club was recognized at the recent club meeting for their tireless work over the year, along with the School's Advisor - Carla Miller - They literally did a project a month, from raking Greece Senior Citizens yards in the fall, to helping out at our Pasta Dinner to helping out at the Greece Ecum.

Chief Phelan & Sheriff Baxter's Opioid Crisis Awareness Crusade 
Greece Police Chief Patrick Phelan & Monroe County Sheriff Todd Baxter recently spoke at a The Greece Rotary meeting and enlightened the club on the Opioid Crisis/War he and other Police and the Medical Professionals are waging across our towns and country.
Per Sheriff Baxter's presentation: 
"We are losing this battle"
"We as a community need to start talking openly about this epidemic and remove the stigma and stereotypes. We need to feel a sense of urgency, urgency like this epidemic is in every one of our houses, our schools, our workplaces, our churches, because it is here and growing every day. "
The Average Opioid Death is 45 years old !!! not 22 years like most people think - The County of Monroe has initiated a Opioid Task Force to combine police/medical and social services agencies to work together sharing information and evidence to assist the victims and families of this killer in our Towns and Neighborhoods.
