Michelle Curran - Michelle was born and raised in Chico with big dreams of changing the world. After graduating from Chico State, she spent a few years working for NGO's in Washington DC, Thailand, Ethiopia, and Uganda. It was through her experiences abroad that she realized perhaps the most good she could do to change the world was start in her own hometown. She is the Co-Founder and Executive Director of Reading Pals, mother of 3, avid traveler, and has come to believe that perhaps that most effective way to change the world is one child at a time. |

The Camp Fire killed between one and three million trees. Helping landowners restore their vaporized woodlands is the job of the Butte County Resource Conservation District (BCRCD). But we shouldn't replace the too-dense, unhealthy forest of the past. As fires get more frequent and the climate gets warmer, how should we plant Butte County's "next forest" for fire- and climate-resilience? Wolfy Rougle, Forest Health Watershed Coordinator at the BCRCD, will share how her organization is tackling these questions and helping Butte County forest landowners get the right trees back on the landscape in the right places. Wolfy is a botanist, GIS person, grant writer and good fire advocate who holds a Master's in Public Administration from Chico State and a B.S. in International Agricultural Development from UC Davis. She has worked at the RCD for two years. |

James Lewis - The Polio Virus has been on our planet for at least 4,000 years. Killing, crippling children and adults all of this time. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was the first President of the United States was the first president who was suffering from the effects of Polio which he came down with in 1921, he was only 39 years of age. his legs were paralized. Under his leadership it started a campaign called the March of Dimes. Mothers would walk the neighborhoods collecting dimes for polio. As with COVID-19 there was no vaccine, but that changed by two wonderful doctors, both came up with the polio vaccine, 4 years apart, but both have changed the world when it comes to polio eradication. My program will address "Life After Polio, Past, Present and Future"
I look forward to speaking to your Rotary Club, as a Polio survivor, it is an honor and a privilage. |

Chief Steve Standridge started in the position of Chico fire chief at the end of January,2018 He hails from Colorado, where he served for 23 years with the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority outside of Denver, most recently as emergency management division chief. That department, he says, was huge—covering 172 square miles and comprising some 300 firefighters. At 51, he’s looking forward to working with a smaller, moreintimate operation. Originally from Medford, Oregon, and with family spanning from Santa Cruz to Southern Oregon, Chico is middle ground for Steve. And with a teenager and preteen at home, being able to be outdoors in Chico is appealing.
