Alexandria Rotary Club

Law Enforcement Tech

Pete Pfeffer introduced Troy Wolbersen, Chief Deputy with the Douglas County Sheriff's Office. Troy demonstrated the Taser Gun (complete with cartridge - cost is $1100). The Taser X26 fires two probes that transmit electrical current through the body. Sheriff's office is also using a Thermal Imaging Camera that the department received after applying for a grant of $16,000. Eight deputies are also carrying a Panasonic Toughbook that enables them to do paperwork in their vehicle and on sight without returning to the Law Enforcement Center.

Mia Farrow pays tribute to Rotarians

During her visit to District 7230's New York City conference in April, Mia Farrow only had one parting request: That she could come back and celebrate with the group when polio is completely eradicated. Though the award-winning actress has been linked with celebrities such as the Beatles, Frank Sinatra, and Woody Allen, she couldn't have been happier to pay tribute to New York and Bermuda Rotarians for their efforts in eradicating polio during the past 21 years.
