From
Our Club President
Thank you for considering participation in the highly
regarded and sought after 10th Annual Lake Norman Wine
Spectacular! - Auction and Tasting hosted by the Rotary
Club of Lake Norman - Huntersville. The Wine Spectacular!
will take place at the Northstone Country Club in
Huntersville, on Saturday, October 18, 2008 beginning at
7:00 p.m. The Wine Spectacular! features delicious
food, music and opportunities to taste some fine wines as
well as purchase featured wines at a discount (only during
the event). Live and silent auctions will offer
opportunities to bid on fine wines and other special items
hand selected by Mr. George Erdle, noted wine editor and
wine connoisseur as well as many other items graciously
donated from local businesses and friends of Rotary.
Over the last several years, the Rotary Club of Lake Norman
– Huntersville has contributed in excess of $60,000 to local
charities including The Lake Norman Free Clinic, The Ada
Jenkins Center and The Red Cross. This year, the Rotary
Club of Lake Norman-Huntersville has chosen
The Lake
Norman Free Clinic and The Hope House as our main
benefactors while we will continue to support other local
organizations such as The Ada Jenkins Center.
The Lake Norman Free Clinic
offers a variety of healthcare services to uninsured or
under-insured residents of Huntersville, Mooresville,
Davidson or Cornelius on Wednesday evenings. Visit

The Hope House
in Huntersville, NC offers transitional housing and support
for single mothers and their children. Visit

We hope you will save the date – October 18th at
Northstone Country Club in Huntersville and also consider
contributing wine, quality auction items or even becoming a
sponsor of this year's 10th Annual Lake Norman
Wine Spectacular! Auction and Tasting. 
Yours
In Rotary Service,

A bit about Rotary...
The Rotary
Club of Lake Norman-Huntersville is a local chapter of
Rotary International, which is truly global in scope.
Thousands of local chapters make up the organization, raise
charitable funds and provide assistance to hundreds of
local, national and international programs and charities.
Our goal is to make our local community better by providing
assistance to those in need. Our local programs include
scholarships for local high school students, student
exchange programs, and other charitable projects, most
notably, the Red Cross Transportation Project, which
provides transportation to those in need of medical
services.
Our Rotary Club members share a common interest in serving
others, locally in our community and internationally. We
are a diverse and dynamic group. We enjoy a special
camaraderie at our regular weekly meetings, and in all of
our volunteering, fundraising and social activities. Where
else can you really get to know such a varied and talented
group of individuals? We hope you will consider learning
more about our club, even becoming a member. Most new
members of Rotary join for Fun, Fellowship and Food.
But many learn that the rewards of becoming Rotarians are
much larger than they ever imagined. We invite you to be our
guest for breakfast any Thursday from 7:30 to 8:30 AM at
Northstone Country Club.
