•••• Lincoln was brought to NSHS as part of Sydney Brotherton and Alex Freeman’s class of 2015 Lega-cy Project for Leadership. Nu-merous local com-munity organiza-tions donated money to make his purchase possible.

North Scott Rotary was a major con-tributor to this purchase endeavor.

•••• Lincoln was trained through the CARES program in Concordia Kansas and has been through extensive training since he was 11 weeks old. He has lived in two different correctional facilities in Kansas as part of a puppy training program that inmates apply to be a part of.

•••• Lincoln and Mrs Denahy also attended a week long certification program requir-ing Lincoln to follow various commands in many different settings to ensure he would behave properly in public.

•••• Lincoln knows 40+ commands and has been trained through praise only - not treats

•••• PLEASE DO NOT GIVE HIM TREATS or HUMAN FOOD! - This is a surefire way to ruin his training, if you want to reward him please do so with petting and praise. :)

•••• Please ask before petting Lincoln. This is proper etiquette with all dogs we greet so even though he is friendly it is good to practice this.

Lincoln’s main job is to provide comfort, ease anxiety and alleviate stress. In some in-stances he may be used to assist with social skills and confidence building. Most of the year he will spend primarily with Mrs. Denahy as he gets more acclimated to the building, kids and staff. He can visit rooms upon teacher request and will attend group and coun-seling lessons. He will not be given free reign of the halls. Tracy Denahy Counselor North Scott High School

LAST MEETING – September 25, 2015 – Carly Fiorina for President Sixty three North Scott Rotarians and 87 guests attended our special meeting welcoming Re-publican presidential candidate, Ms. Carly Fiorina to the Steeplegate. Many, many hands were busy making this a safe and enjoyable visit for Ms. Fiorina from Texas. She had numerous campaign staff traveling with her, and she also attracted a flock of reporters and news media. There were about 25 additional people that were there but did not eat. Glen kept the business meeting short. Andy Green said goodbye to the club, as he has moved to Indiana to take a better job with Boy Scouts of America. He gave $25 for the education fund and told about his high school days, visiting the Clinton Rotary club as a Junior Rotarian. He said that now he realizes that Rotary is much more than missing a class, and getting a soda. Kelly Meyer reminded everyone to come eat at Chick-fil-A on Wednesday from 4 to 8 P.M. Ten per cent of the sales to people that mention North Scott Rotary will come back to us to use for auction purposes. Patrick promoted the upcoming auction and invited everyone present to attend.
