Byesville Rotary club members and friends of Byesville Rotary will begin staffing red kettles and ringing bells in Byesville on Wed., Nov. 25. Byesville Rotary, in cooperation with the Cambridge Salvation Army, has agreed to be responsible for providing Christmas Food Baskets to families in the Rolling Hills School District. This year the club expects to donate over 250 baskets to local families. All funds collected in Byesville will be used to purchase items for the food baskets.
Bell ringers will be collecting donations at the Byesville branches of Advantage and Peoples banks on Nov. 24, 27, and 28 and in December every Thursday, Friday and Saturday through December 19.
A final registration for Food Baskets will be held the evening of December 7, 3:00-6:00pm, at the Main Avenue Methodist Activity Center.
The speaker for the meeting was Dr. Mamidi, one of the club’s newest members. He spoke about his journey from the Indian town of Brhampur to medical school in the United States. He specialized in cardiology and became a clinical cardiologist. He explained that he prefers to work in rural areas rather than the city. He practiced in Logan, West Virginia, for 30 years before he came to Cambridge and currently works at Genesis.
Dr. Mamidi pointed out the heart disease is often silent and the disease typically begins in a person’s 20’s. A person can help reduce his/her risk for heart disease by making changes in life style. Recommended changes include eating a heart healthy diet and including exercise in daily activities.The club’s next meeting will be 7:30 am, December 1, at the Stop Nine Senior Center at 60313 (GPS use 60299) Southgate Road, Byesville.
