The Rotary Club of Petaluma

Ed's Photo Album

July 2011 - June 2012

 

About Ed's Album: 
Past President Ed Fullerton is quite handy with his digital camera. We started Ed's Photo Album some years ago when Ed first offered some photos to the Web site. We've added many photos since then and, as you'll see, Ed now has additional members helping him. We've kept the original name to recognize the Rotarian who started sharing Club photos on the Web. (NOTE: Ed was District Governor of District 5130 in 2008-09.)

 


 

 


On June 29, 2012 we gathered at the Petaluma Women's Club for the Debunking of President Joanne Ferris and the installation of incoming 2012-13 President Nancy Cooley. Here are some photos taken that evening. We also have some videos of tributes from Joanne's family.

 


Joanne Ferris snapped this photo of Wally Bragdon and Paul Lounibos promoting the Petaluma Art and Equestrian Festival at the Theater Square farmers market on June 13, 2012.

Rotarians, augmented by cheerleaders from St. Vincent de Paul High School, treated the populace to a flash mob dance routine just before the Butter and Egg Day Parade on April 28, 2012. This brief video clip is all you need to see!

 


The Santa Rosa Press Democrat sent a photographer to our Farmers and Merchants Night on March 23, 2012. Here he captured Al Cattalini shooting photos of the event. To see Al's photos, click here. For the Press Democrat photos, click here.

 


We held our annual Crab Feed and Super Raffle on February 17, 2012 at the Veterans Memorial Building. Here are some photos taken that evening.

These photos from Joanne Ferris show the kids from St. Vincent's and Kenilworth who, along with Rotarians, wrapped gifts for 60 families on December 10th.


 


Kenilworth Kares! Here's a photo the woodshop students at Kenilworth Junior High School with the toys they designed and manufactured. Funded by a gift from our club, the toys will be distributed to needy kids this Christmas season by Rotarians and other local organizations.


 

It's Super Raffle time! Work on the February 17, 2012 Super Raffle began in November. Here are raffle team captains participating the the annual draft for team members. President Joanne Ferris took these photos.




 

Petaluma Rotarians go shopping. It wasn't "Black Friday" but some Rotarians and spouses got up early on November 28 and 29 to shop for Christmas gifts for needy children. Our local KMart graciously opened their doors at 7:00 a.m. and opened their wallet as well. President Joanne Ferris helped with the shopping and took these photos.

Petaluma Rotarians host Youth Exchange students. The Petaluma Boys & Girls Club provided overnight accommodations to Youth Exchange students from throughout District 5130 in conjunction with their weekend excursion to San Francisco. Our club made sure they wouldn't go hungry. President Joanne Ferris took these photos on September 30.


David Solo, Lou Steinberg, and Mike Stauber await the students.

Michael Nistler and Al Cattalini brought their cameras to the Country Club on September 19, 2011. Here are their photos of the umpteenth annual Petaluma Rotary Golf Tournament.

On August 11, 2011 we held our Thursday meeting at the Soncma County Fair. Great weather, great food, and a fun day at the racetrack. Do Thursday meetings get any better than this?


 


We held our fourth annual Petaluma Art and Equestrian Festival on July 24. Michael Nistler took lots of great photos and posted them on Flicker. (Once there, click on the picture to go to the slide show, then press older/newer button to navigate.) Wandering about after his time at the ticket booth, Al Cattalini took some photos too. They're here in Ed's Album; click to view them.

The Santa Rosa Press Democrat was on hand with a reporter and photographer. Their work was published the next day in the Sunday edition. You can view it here.
