  • Trevor Donaldson
  • Ingrid Fields
  • Faye Herriot
  • Todd Hoadley

ANNOUNCEMENTS
  • Next week is an important week for Dublin AM Rotary club.  Next week, our Friday morning meeting will be led by the Rotaract team
  • The February 8, Polar Bear golf outing is filling up with 53 golfers signed up, 24 hole-sponsors committed and several volunteers lines up.  “But we can do better!” says Jim Listebarger as he reminded the club that friends and family are welcome to golf, help out as volunteers and sponsor holes.  With 3 weeks to go, there is time to get involved
GUEST SPEAKER:  Tim Petska with the Joseph Group discussed the Economic Outlook for 2020.
 
Tim made no recommendations for stock or bond purchases, but rather discussed ways of thinking about this year. 
 
Possible considerations when thinking about 2020 capital markets:
1.) A wise investor focuses on scenarios, not forecasts or predictions
 
2.) It may be a good idea to consider Small caps, value style and foreign stocks when making 2020 investment decisions because they are relatively discounted compared to other stocks trading at 20X PE
 
3.) In an election year, the Fed is not as likely to modify interest rates.  This belief is driven from the thinking that the Fed may not want to appear politically motivated in making monetary decisions
 
4.) Bond performance varies inversely with interest rates.  Interest rates are at very low levels currently
 
5.) Investment considerations should include factual, macro level policy decisions and not one’s own political preferences or fears
 
Tim explained that a good amount of the equity growth in 2019 was a likely a result of stocks trading at higher PE ratios.  Further, for continued sustainable growth, it is likely that strong 2020 corporate earnings are needed for continued equity appreciation.

Veteran’s History Project 

Veteran’s History Project - Eric Rood 

Friday, 9/27, we had the honor of hearing Eric Rood from the Ohio Veterans Oral History Project. He gave us an overview of the great work that is being done to preserve the oral histories of our Veterans. He has made it his mission to record Veterans telling their stories so generations of their Family can hear their story and history can be told from all perspectives; photos, film and recorded interviews. 

If you would like to watch some of the great interviews Eric has created you can go to YouTube under “timeless voices of aviation”, or if you have a Veteran who would like to tell their story, Eric can be contacted at rood.eric@gmail.com. Thanks to Eric for everything he is doing to honor the sacrifice of our Veterans. 

 

The Ohio Veterans Oral History Project is an ongoing initiative of the Ohio History Connection to collect and preserve the stories of Ohio’s veterans. The Ohio History Connection believes that every veteran’s story is important and shows different aspects of military service and sacrifice.  They are collecting veterans’ stories of their military experiences to make them available for future generations. They have partnered with the National Veterans Memorial and Museum and Honor Flight Columbus to locate veterans interested in participating in the project. These histories help inform designers working for the Ohio Veterans Memorial and Museum and some will be used in the memorial and museum itself.

Rotary Sponsored Exchange Student returns from Slovakia
 
Posted by Ingrid Fields
Gretchen Spears gave us a great update on her Rotary exchange year. She had the opportunity to stay with 3 families in Slovakia, 1 family from Radosovce and 2 Families from Skalica. During her time in Slovakia she experienced many opportunities; learning the culture, traveling across Europe and enjoying meeting new Friends. In addition, she studied Chemistry, Math and Physics and completed a full marathon!
She was very passionate about her time in Slovakia and remarked that the program gave her incredible insight to other cultures, showed her new ways of doing things and really got her outside of her comfort zone. In addition, it gave her additional confidence in herself and what she can achieve.
Gretchen was a model student for the program and we are so proud of how she represented Dublin AM during her time in Slovakia. Very soon we will be sending another Student, Chris to France to study for the upcoming school year. We will also be receiving Lara Kranke from Wilsdruff, German for the upcoming school year.
Thanks to Gretchen and good luck to Chris! Also thanks to Sinan Yaykin for his passion and dedication to making this program a success.
