Paul Slosberg was presented with an award in appreciation for everything
he has done for Rotary and the Rotary Club of Central Citrus County.

Debbie Salsavage gave a very informative presentation on dementia. She
describes how it effects the person and their care giver. Everyone was
interested in what she said since most had someone close to them that had
the disease which has no cure. She is trying to educate care givers and
particularly businesses who serve customers who might have dementia.
Her presentation could have gone on much longer with the Rotarians
interest and questions about dementia which may affect some of them
or more of their loved ones.
