May 17 Meeting - REACTMay 17 Kendall Bachiks REACT ![]() Check out this REACT Video: https://vimeo.com/481471916/ MEET THE BACHIKS Our entry into the world of neuro-recovery is not all that unique, but where we’ve taken things is anything but traditional! Kendell, born and raised in Dallas, was fueled by a life defined by progress. Working in the financial sector as an auditor for KPMG, her life was derailed in a moments time. It was October 31, 2009. A seemingly inconsequential decision to ride with friends that Halloween ended up being a choice that changed the course of her life forever. She was in a car accident. The speed and intensity of fishtailing left to right, over and over, snapped Kendell’s neck – instantly paralyzing her. Ryan, born and raised in Waco, was fueled by a life of sports. Just as he finished several collegiate strength and conditioning internships with universities like Baylor and Missouri, Kendell had placed an job opportunity on the National Strength & Conditioning Association’s website for a coach capable of taking on the delicate challenge of caring for people overcoming traumatic conditions while pushing them beyond what they believe is their limit. Ryan was eager to prove himself and relocated to Dallas for the job. Instantly he found himself in awe of the willpower it takes to overcome conditions like a spinal cord injury, brain injury, stroke, MS and the many other neurological diagnoses his clients face . Everyday, the Bachik’s commit themselves to serving others through improved movement. Together, their team continues to push the realm of what’s possible in neuro-recovery. Utilizing experience, knowledge and the brain’s ability to dictate movement, Bachik Methods has created a system of training that propels client’s well beyond what many say is possible. Physical and emotional recovery do not occur independently. They are so closely intertwined that unless we address both, you will not achieve what you are capable of! We are committed to improving every person that trusts our family in their recovery. You will FEEL our passion. Our team will take you where you cannot take yourself! |

AMRC Supports the new Metrocrest Services HeadquartersAddison Midday Rotary Club (AMRC) has pledged $15,000 over the next 3 three years for the new Metrocrest Services Headquarters. At our December 14 meeting, AMRC presented Tracy Eubanks, CEO of Metrocrest Services with our first-year donation. The check for $7,500 exceeds our annual pledge of $5,000 and comes from money raised through our Flag Lease Program and North Texas Giving Day and individual donations made to the Addison Midday Rotary Foundation. Your support of our Flag Lease Program supports Metrocrest Services. METROCREST SERVICES is developing their new headquarters at 1835 Walnut Avenue. For this multi-million dollar project, Rotary Clubs in the area served by Metrocrest Services, have been approached by Metrocrest Services with a request to help with a financial donation. In return, a prominent part of the new building will bear the Rotary name. Each club can pledge what is reasonable for them, based on the financial situation and possibilities.

Rotary Monthly Theme - December![]() December is Disease Prevention and Treatment Month Rotary is dedicated to fighting and preventing disease. Disease Prevention and Treatment is one of Rotary’s Six Area of Focus. Disease and illness results in pain and injury. Prolonged severe illness may result in loss of employment and income. It affects families. It affects quality of life. Rotary and Rotarians are committed to helping people to live healthy lives. Our signature project in this area is Polio Eradication. But polio is not the only disease or aspect of healthy living on which Rotarians have expended energies. |

October 12 Meeting - Artificial IntelligenceOctober 12 Professor Jan Wolber, PhD Product Leader Digital with GE Healthcare Artificial Intelligence ![]() From Wikipedia: Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, as opposed to the natural intelligence displayed by animals including humans. Leading AI textbooks define the field as the study of "intelligent agents": any system that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of achieving its goals. Some popular accounts use the term "artificial intelligence" to describe machines that mimic "cognitive" functions that humans associate with the human mind, such as "learning" and "problem solving", however this definition is rejected by major AI researchers. Jan is the brother of Club President Ben Wolber. He lives in England and will join us via Zoom. |

Editor Apologizes - Wolber not WoblerI apologize for continually spelling Ben's last name wrong. I am a very poor speller and have about a dozen excuses as to why I can not spell, including I inherited the ability from my father. I read using the 'look-see' method. I look at a word, recognize letter combinations and move on. I do not sound out each syllable. I am a member of the Grand Prairie Friends of East-Central Illinois. Grand Prairie Friends East-Central Illinois. One of their properties, which is an area I used to camp and hunt, is Warbler Ridge. Last April I spent an afternoon planting trees in the river bottoms of Warbler Ridge. I have been looking at 'Wolber' and reading 'Warbler'. Hopefully by writing this apologize I will remember the correct spelling. ![]() |

May 25 Meeting - North Texas Tollway AuthorityMay 25 Michael Rey, the Media Relations Manager North Texas Tollway Authority; Future Expansion ![]() The future Dallas North Tollway (DNT) Phase 4 project will extend the tollway 13.7 miles north of US 380. When this extension is complete, it will provide a direct link between downtown Dallas and growing areas in Collin, Denton and Grayson counties. The project is currently in the planning and design phase. The NTTA Board of Directors chose an alignment for the Phase 4 extension that straddles the Collin-Denton county line from FM 428 in Collin County to the Grayson County line. The county alignment provides a greater economic development benefit for most of the region, requires less right of way and follows an existing county road system. Initially, there was an additional section identified as part of this extension. It was referred to as Phase 5A and would have extended the DNT from the Grayson County line to FM 121 in Grayson County. |

April 6 Meeting - Jay MaymiApril 6 Jay Maymi CEO Survive to Thrive Taking you from Surviving to Thriving! ![]() There is an advantage to growing up in a humble setting with meager means. The reality of your circumstances can either pummel you into mediocrity or extract from you a burning desire to excel and rise above. My story is one of the latter. For the last three decades my hunger to rise above has yielded an impressive array of accomplishments. From multiple successful businesses to bodybuilding championships, radio, TV, stage, and print work to authoring 9 books; from an entire Sales and Personal Development series to speaking in front of many diverse audiences on different topics; all have uniquely qualified me to offer valuable knowledge, instruction, inspiration, and impact to those seeking to develop a higher and greater expression of themselves. ![]() |

RYLead News![]() AMRC received this Thank You note from Chloe Keggen. Chloe was one of our selected campers for Camp RYLA 2020 and she successfully completed our virtual camp RYLead yesterday. Her cabin won the coveted Camp Cup which is a camp long competition with many elements. Another of our campers, Kevin Utz, was awarded a $1,000 scholarship yesterday for his exceptional work throughout RYLead. Only five scholarships were awarded from the 70 students who completed all six modules of RYLead. The scholarships were provided by the RYLA 5810 Foundation. Dear Mr. Duffy, Early last year, I reached out to you in hopes of getting involved with RYLA. A few emails and an interview later, I found myself excited for the opportunity to join the RYLead family. I want to thank you for this opportunity and these lessons that I’ve learned in each module. We just concluded our last module, and we reflected on the past few months. My cabin, Cabin 9 *cough cough the winning cabin cough*, shared how we feel at home in the RYLA family. Thank you for inviting me to be a part of that. I hope to continue being involved with RYLA 5810, and I am so excited for what the future holds. Thank you again. Sincerely, Chloe Keggen |

August 11 Meeting - Jeff DunnAugust 11 Jeff Dunn, Dallas Attorney and Historian History and Memory at the Alamo and San Jacinto Battleground ![]() Jeff Dunn will not dwell on the facts of these events, but instead will focus on what happened to these sites after 1836, how and when the state acquired the sites, and the controversies that followed concerning how to present these sites to the public. From Wikipedia: “The Battle of San Jacinto, fought on April 21, 1836, in present-day Houston, Texas, was the decisive battle of the Texas Revolution. Led by General Samuel Houston, the Texan Army engaged and defeated General Antonio López de Santa Ann’s Mexican army in a fight that lasted just 18 minutes. A detailed, first-hand account of the battle was written by General Houston from the headquarters of the Texan Army, San Jacinto, on April 25, 1836. Numerous secondary analyses and interpretations have followed.” ![]() |

Barbara Johnson grew up in the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia where her father was an international business man. She attended Stanford University and studied economics and International Relations. "Growing up in developing countries, I experienced around me a lot of poverty and need, and was really struck by the inequalities in the world. While we lived comfortably in homes with air conditioning, furnishings and ample food, families and individuals were living in squalor…..even sometimes in cardboard boxes. It had a lasting effect on me." After relocating to Dallas 30 years ago, she first stayed home raising my children while working part time on a tax and accounting business at home. About 10 years ago she volunteered at a nonprofit where she eventually got hired. Her nonprofit career had begun! |

AMRC Donates to Education Plus NicaraguaClub President Jerry is pleased to report the Addison Midday Rotary Club raised $2,400 for Education Plus Nicaragua, a charity he worked with on his Rotary trip to Nicaragua. From Education Plus web site: ![]() https://eduplusnicaragua.org/contact/ Education Plus Today In June 2014, our community center Casa de los Sueños (CDLS) opened to the joy of nearly 200 children and their parents. Here we provide food, education, and activities in order to eliminate malnutrition, instill core values, and give them the resources they need to rise above their impoverished circumstances. We offer our children a safe haven that keeps them off the streets, and exciting opportunities that keep them into education. In a country with the highest primary school dropout rate in Central America, our students believe that going to university is within their reach. Not only that, the children arrive to our program overjoyed to be there. Instead of hunger, what these children – the “forgotten children” – now have, is hope. |

Flag Schedule for 4th of July![]() We can break into smaller routes if needed. We can try Caravans. Ben and Virginia have volunteered to drive behind Al, and put the flags in Al's van at the storage unit and put out the flags in Addison East. Al will never get out of the van. Ivan and Wanda have volunteered to drive another route - someone is needed to put out the flags. Dean volunteered to drive one weekend. Phyllis and Ray have volunteered to drive one weekend. We need drivers and workers for at least three routes each week. We do not want to put anyone at risk, so the caravan idea may be a good strategy. As an alternative we can break the routes into smaller routes that can be picked up and put into one vehicle - may 15 flags. We also need a coordinator - Mary Jo is unavailable after May 5. Please let us know your availability to work or drive on each weekend. And if Friday or Saturday works best for you. Please commit! |

RYLA Thank you![]() Hi Linda, I wanted to take a minute to share with you my thoughts on RYLA this passed week, that my son attended. He came home beaming and saying that it was the BEST week ever! He could not even share his experience fast enough as he was still on a “high”. The relationships he made were clearly life changing. Last night he went thru the pictures with us, each picture was a story to be shared. Needless to say he/they are working on a reunion soon. Thank you for putting up with my uncertainty and questions. You really made me feel at ease and comfortable with the whole experience. Thank you again RYLA! |
