A
Hello,
everybody
good
evening,
how's
everybody
doing
great.
You
look
great
all
right.
This
is
the
one
event
that
I
look
forward
to
the
most
I
mean.
If,
if
there's
anything,
we
do
right,
this
is
it
crest.
This
is
when
we
honor
people
some
unsung
and
some
some
tonight,
they'll
all
be
sung
right.
So
welcome
to
the
crest
Awards
I
want
to
go
through
a
little
bit
of
the
logistics
with
you
before
I
turn
it
over
to
our
mayor.
A
A
Also,
we
have
nice
certificates
from
senator
byron,
share,
Assemblyman,
Jim,
kaneen
and
representative,
our
federal
representative
ana
su
for
the
recipients.
Tonight,
there's
only
one
thing
you
need
to
look
for
and
that's
that
little
red
X
right
there
on
the
floor
for
television
purposes.
We
need
you
to
stand
there,
we're
taping
this
tonight
will
be
rebroadcast.
In
fact,
this
will
be
televised
on
May
24th
at
8:00
p.m.
May
30th
at
5:30
and
other
times
throughout
the
year
now.
A
This
is
normally
the
spot
where
I
turn
over
the
mayor,
but
this
year,
I'm
going
to
take
a
little
extra
time.
This
is
my
last
time
doing.
Crest
and
I
want
to
acknowledge
some
people
behind
the
scenes
that
do
pretty
much
all
the
work
on
this
so
I
want
them
to
wave
their
arms
real
big.
They
refuse
to
come
up
front
because
they
say
there's
some
technical
reason
for
this
way
in
the
back
is
Pete
Coghlan
nice.
A
Brand-New
dad
first
time
it's
a
way
to
go
ray
and
our
newest
member
of
our
City
channel
crew,
Lisa
Valentino
right
back
there
all
right
and
then
the
lady
that
puts
this
all
together
makes
it
come
out
smooth
arranges
for
everything,
Donna
cray.
Where
are
you
Donna
stand
up
and
all
the
all
the
things
that
need
to
be
done
to
help
Donna
make
this
work
right?
Is
my
secretary
in
the
council
secretary
Linda,
logger,
grant.
B
These
are
people
that
really
help
slow
things
down
and
help
us
connect
very
much
with
each
other
and
so
without
much
further
ado,
I'd
like
to
just
make
a
couple
of
brief
introductions
here
as
well.
I'd
like
to
introduce
the
members
of
the
City
Council
will
be
presenting
tonight.
First,
vice
mayor
sandy,
James.
B
I
note
that
we
have
one
absent
member
tonight
and
as
councilmember
Don
Burnett,
who
had
a
previous
engagement,
that
he
tried
breaking
and
couldn't
get
out
of
so
we're
gonna
fill
this
with
for
tonight
and
we're
looking
forward
to
doing
that
and
now
I'd
like
to
introduce
two
people
that
are
gonna,
be
very
special
I'd
like
to
have
you
please
come
up
again.
Our
our
Red
Spot
is
here
you'll,
be
blinded
appropriately
by
the
light
but
I'm
if
Cho,
Ming
and
Y
you
change
the
please
join
me
at
the
podium
and.
B
C
E
C
D
Another
augustinianism
as
mecha
as
we
were
as
we
are,
and
some
of
these
as
they
made
it
even
along
with
artists,
children
together
and
give
us
some
recognition
here,
is
the
your
birthday
and
give
her
some.
He
or
her
some
recognition
and
the
same
people
improves
their
happiness.
Yes,
that's
a
major
objective.
D
C
D
C
Soon
after
they
began
helping
with
the
birthday
parties,
the
Chang's
became
involved
in
the
center's
volunteer,
Advisory
Council,
and
were
part
of
the
leadership
group
that
worked
to
move
the
Senior
Center
membership
to
its
temporary
quarters
in
the
community
center.
They
participated
in
the
farewell
party
for
the
old
Senior
Center
and
later
enthusiastically
took
part
in
the
groundbreaking
ceremony
for
the
new
facility
now
under
construction
of
all
their
volunteer
activities,
though,
the
Chang's
are
especially
proud
of
their
involvement
in
the
center's
changing
demographics
committee.
D
Of
many
Chinese
who
live
in
Cupertino
this
area
their
doom,
they
cannot
really
understand
English
that
much
and
they
come
here,
live
with
their
children
and
read
the
Chinese
newspaper
and
look
at
the
Chinese
television
and
everything
is
Sunnah
Chinese
and
we
the
a
translation
in
the
Chinese
posters.
They
can
look,
have
the
first
to
have
the
feeling
of
intimacy.
Oh
yes,
something
is
there
here
and
they
feel
at
home.
Yes,
that's
the
most
important,
otherwise,
this
of
the
feeling
of
airing
a
strange
land
and
afraid
to
participate.
C
D
C
E
D
E
D
B
There
is
perhaps
nothing
more
important
that
we're
doing
as
a
community
right
now
than
knitting
together.
Our
newcomers
on
our
old-timers
and
for
what
you've
just
observed
in
the
video
both
of
the
Chang's
tonight
have
been
people
that
have
been
truly
Lynch
pins
or
link
pins
in
bringing
different
cultures
together
and
bringing
us
all
closer
together
as
a
community,
and
for
that
I
I.
Just
can't
say
thank
you
enough
on
behalf
of
this
town.
B
You've
both
been
phenomenal
in
terms
of
the
Senior
Center
and
just
again,
reaching
out
to
the
community
as
a
whole,
and
we're
deeply
appreciate
that
very
much
I
just
want
to
share
a
couple
of
them
of
other
things.
As
we
noted
ten
grandchildren
you've
lived
in
the
US
for
41
years
and
some
of
your
families
here.
Could
you
please
stand
and
take
a
bow
also.
B
B
B
F
C
G
Several
good
friends
and
we
think
say
Cupertino-
is
worth
diversified
community,
since
a
lot
of
the
Chinese
exist
community
and
we
need
something
not
only
for
Chinese
only,
but
hopefully
through
this
events
like
moon
festival,
we
can
create,
let
others
race
know
the
Chinese
value.
The
value
for
the
moon
festival
actually
is
for
the
family.
C
Fernando
spent
countless
volunteer
hours,
organizing
the
new
festival,
which
drew
thousands
of
visitors
during
two
days
in
September,
a
Chinese
tradition
for
3,000
years.
The
Moon
Festival
is
recognized
by
other
cultures
as
well
and
Fernando
hopes.
The
annual
event
eventually
will
bring
all
Cupertino
residents
together
in
celebration.
So.
G
C
Besides
the
Moon
Festival,
another
new
project
that
Fernando
has
introduced
to
the
city
is
the
Cupertino
sin-shoo
friendship,
City
program
which
links
to
high
tech
communities
from
across
the
globe.
He
led
a
42
member
delegation
from
Cupertino
to
sin-shoo
and
Taiwan
last
year
and
the
rest
is
history.
They.
G
C

G
C
Volleyball
and
softball
player
himself
Fernando
traces,
the
origins
of
his
volunteer
work
to
the
sports
fields
of
Little
League,
where
he
began
coaching
his
sons
team
14
years
ago.
From
there
he
became
involved
in
Boy
Scouts
activities
and
other
community
projects,
whether
he's
hosting
a
dinner
to
benefit
the
American,
Cancer
Society,
or
raising
funds
for
earthquake
relief
in
Taiwan
Fernando
finds
the
time
to
help
and
still
manages
a
full-time
job
at
a
company
in
San
Mateo.
My.
G
Boss
definitely
encouraged
us
to
do
some
volunteer
workforce
to
the
community
and
the
time
management
is
worried,
essential
I,
think
I
always
say
planning
ahead,
and
when
we
have
a
big
project,
we
have
a
several
one
tiers
to
sit
down
to
lay
out
at
the
plants,
and
so
what
makes
things
a
little
bit
simpler,
so
I
can
juggling
other's
projects.
At
the
same
time,.
C
G
Make
sing
all
together,
I
found
the
best
people
to
work
for
us,
I
mean
as
a
group
as
a
volunteer
as
a
group,
so
we
can
make
things
much
smoother
and
they're
much
better.
At
a
lot
of
people
like
I,
said
any
song
hero
because
they
are
in
the
background
and
never
say
words
when
you
sign
a
job,
they
do
the
job
and
to
fast,
like
I,
was
always
said.
Each
one
is
like
ears
in
a
watch,
so
we
make
the
movement
and
we
make
everything's
the
time.
G
F
Fernando
is
really
a
bridge
builder
in
this
community,
whether
it
be
the
moon
festival
organization
or
forming
our
friendship,
sister
city
and
in
Taiwan
with
Sindhu
City.
He
seeks
to
bring
people
together
and
for
that
I
really
want
to
honor
him
tonight.
He
also
has
many
talents
and
a
lot
of
energy.
As
you
could
see,
one
thing,
I,
don't
know
how
many
of
you
have
ever
seen
him,
but
he
does
a
pretty
mean
impersonation
of
Elvis
Presley.
Even
thank
you
so
much
for
Nami.
F
C
What
service
organization
wouldn't
love
to
find
a
way
to
bottle
up
and
use
the
energy
and
enthusiasm
of
youth
for
worthwhile
causes
quota
international
of
Cupertino
actually
did
better
than
that.
Ten
years
ago,
the
club
inducted
19
year
old,
Debbie
Doherty,
the
youngest
member
in
quotas,
area-wide
district.
It's.
C
H
Going
to
dance
a
college
and
I
was
working
here
and
that's
when
I
started
getting
more
involved
in
the
community
here
and
through
the
Chamber
of
Commerce
and
rotary
and
quota
different
events,
and
so
I
just
went
along
with
them
and
saw
what
they
were
doing
and
I
was
very
interested
and
at
that
time
I
had
a
lot
more
free
time.
So
I
was
able
to
participate
in
a
lot
of
different
fundraising
events
and
was
just
really
fun.
C
H
Main
focus
is
hearing
impaired
groups
and
there's
just
so
such
a
great
opportunity
to
help
people
with
a
purchasing
equipment
for
their
schools
or
anything
really,
and
it's
just
something
that
I
wasn't
really
aware
of.
I
didn't
really
know
that
much
about
but
I
think
starting
at
the
young
age,
really
just
when
that
hole
has
just
been
a
part
of
my
life
now,
because
it
was
just
something
when
I
started,
working
I
got
involved
and
it's
something
that
I've
just
been
doing
over
time.
H
C
H
Sing
Christmas
carols,
they
can
work
art
projects
and
then
we
take
them
back
to
school
after
lunch
and
it's
just
a
real
fun
rewarding
day,
just
to
see
their
faces
and
a
little
twinkle
in
their
eyes
and
how
happy
they
are
and
they
go
running
back
with
their
shopping
bag
to
school.
And
it's
very
special
Debbie.
C
H
H
C
C
H
It's
just
as
I
said,
become
a
part
of
my
life
now,
since
I
was
exposed
to
it
a
long
time
ago.
I
just
feel
that
it's
important
to
have
something
outside
of
your
normal
daily
routines
for
his
work
and
family,
because
there
are
just
are
so
many
organizations
out
there
that
need
volunteers
and
I
just
think
that
it's
very
important
to
to
get
out
there
and
get
involved.
I
J
F
H
F
F
K
C
Jeane
Gallup
is
definitely
a
book
lover
and
her
passion
for
the
printed
word
translates
to
an
overwhelming
number
of
volunteer
hours
for
the
Cupertino
library.
20
years
ago
she
went
to
one
of
the
library's
book
sales
and
shortly
thereafter
joined
the
Friends
of
the
Cupertino
library,
the
group
that
sponsors
the
library
book
sales
we.
L
Sell
you
an
empty
grocery
bag
for
three
dollars.
You
get
to
fill
it
up
from.
What's
in
the
room
and
a
big
kick
was
seeing
teenagers
going
through
and
picking
up
a
book
and
see
just
going
for
filling
that
bag
and
I
just
think.
That's
so
important,
because
I
think
if
you're
a
book
lover
and
a
reader,
you
got
a
lock
on
life
to
me
being
allowed
into
a
book
sale
where
the
highest
price
book
is.
A
dollar
is
like
being
let
loose
in
the
candy
store.
The.
C
Library
has
a
sweet
deal
with
Jean
Gallup.
She
works
tirelessly
on
programs
and
activities
for
the
facility,
everything
from
committee
meetings
and
political
campaigns
to
wrapping
gift
books
and
helping
with
summer
reading
clubs
for
kids,
when
the
Friends
of
the
library
wanted
to
reorganize
into
a
more
structured
group,
Jean
gathered
a
committee
and
stepped
forward
to
take
on
the
challenge
when.
L
C
G's
term,
as
president,
the
friends
became
an
incorporated
entity
with
a
tax
exemption
status,
a
group
with
a
new
logo
and
newsletter
to
better
communicate
with
its
growing
membership.
But
Jean
says
one
of
the
most
significant
changes
over
the
past.
Several
years
has
been
financial
in
nature,
I
think.
L
C
L
I
was
headed
to
friends.
I
ended
up
on
the
campaign
committee
for
that,
and
it
was
amazing
me
to
watch
and
to
try
and
figure
out
again
where
I
would
fit
in
and
I
do
not
have
the
network
of
community
contacts
that
the
other
very
hard
working
people
on
the
committee
did
I
could
be
a
worker
bee,
so
I
did
calling
of
the
high
schools
to
see
if
we
could
get
kids
to
precinct,
walk
I
called
everybody.
C
Has
been
involved
in
the
new
library
projects,
as
it
was
first
proposed
two
years
ago,
she
sat
on
needs
assessment
committees,
worked
on
the
campaign
and
has
recently
been
appointed
by
the
City
Council,
as
a
member
of
a
new
committee
charged
with
selecting
an
architect
for
the
building.
All
this
fits
in
nicely
with
her
personal
views
on
volunteering.
I
think.
L
As
a
part
of
the
community,
you
need
to
to
give
back
to
the
community
I
think
it
connects
you
to
the
community,
particularly
as
we
get
sort
of
more
and
more
impersonal
in
our
dealings.
You
used
to
you
know
the
grocer.
Now
you
don't
as
much.
Certainly
I
don't
know
the
clerks
at
Target
to
say
hello
to
that
kind
of
thing.
Over.
C
L
A
lot
of
good
friends
in
the
friends
now,
particularly
as
we've,
worked
on
the
board
and
worked
on
things
and
and
I
get
a
kick
out
of
watching
that
someone
new
comes
into
the
friends
and,
if
they're
at
all
willing
and
capable,
we
immediately
suck
them
into
the
network
of
the
heavy
duty
workers.
So
I
do
get
a
kick
out
of
that.
L
L
L
K
You
know
our
library
is
the
busiest
one
in
the
county.
Our
library
county
system
is
an
award-winning
County,
Library
System.
We
do
it
with
limited
funds.
Not
long
ago,
we
lost
our
state
funding
for
libraries
in
when
the
state
was
short
on
money.
That
money
was
diverted
to
schools,
to
keep
the
schools
ticking
along,
and
although
there's
a
thirteen
billion
dollar
surplus,
now
at
the
state,
they're
not
giving
us
that
money
back.
So
we've
been
operating
really
on
about
half
of
the
money
that
we
we
plan
to
operate
on,
it's
volunteerism.
K
That
makes
the
difference
and
that's
why
we
have
an
award-winning
library
and
that's
why
we
can
check
out
one
and
a
half
million
books
and
pieces
of
media
in
a
year
and
do
it
with
the
help
of
our
very
own
community
and
our
neighbors.
You
know:
Jean
is
she's
more
than
just
a
volunteer,
because
Jean
is
she's,
an
organization
builder.
You
know
she
took
the
friends
the
friends
had
has
been
around
actually
for
a
long
time.
It
was
run
by
the
Woodruff's,
but
it
was
a
very
casual
kind
of
organization.
K
She
turned
it
into
a
serious
organization
with
bylaws
and
she's
done,
an
incredible
amount
of
drawing
other
volunteers
into
the
library
system,
and
that
was
her
a
role
in
measure
a
so.
She
sounds
like
she's.
Just
doing
these
things
on
their
own.
The
real
power
of
Jean
Gallup
is
that
she's,
a
builder
of
organizations
and
she
pulls
together
the
people
that
can
do
do
the
work
so
she's
a
highly
leveraged
player
here
in
Cupertino.
L
I
K
About
about
Jean
Jean
once
worked
in
our
library
as
a
library
page,
the
the
page
is
the
low
man
on
the
totem
pole
in
the
library
system,
yeah
I
I
worked
now
one
of
the
tasks
that
I
have
as
a
council
member
is
to
be
part
of
the
joint
powers
authority
for
the
library
and
the
one.
The
one
person
that
the
union
doesn't
care
about
is
the
page
that
the
union
does
not
fight
for.
K
For
the
page,
the
page
is
the
person
that
gets
to
haul
all
the
books
that
you've
returned
back
to
the
shelves
and
put
them
in
the
right
place.
The
way
the
system
worked
when
when
Jean
was
an
employee
of
the
library
is
that
they
that
the
librarians
would
ring
a
little
bell
and
a
page
would
have
to
come
running,
which
sounds
a
bit
demeaning,
but
but
that's
what
Jean
did
and
she
she
says
that
for
two
years
after
leaving
the
library
every
time
she
heard
a
bell,
she
got
out
of
her
chair
thanks
again
Jean.
C
When
it
comes
to
being
prepared,
Jim
Oberg
offer
is
on
just
the
right
wavelength
he's
a
dedicated
member
of
Cupertino
amateur
radio
emergency
services,
better
known,
as
cares,
and
for
the
past
two
years
he's
been
a
leader
in
honing,
the
group's
emergency
preparedness
skills,
whether
it's
organizing
practice,
drills
in
the
field
or
leading
monthly
meetings
at
City
Hall
Jim
helps
keep
his
fellow
cares.
Volunteers
ready
for
just
about
anything
when.
C
N
C
C
C
N
Community
service
events
that
we
participated
in
in
the
past
has
been
the
fire
watch
during
the
4th
of
July
festival,
silver
at
DeAnza
and,
most
recently
we
participated
in
supporting
the
parks
and
recreation
with
the
Ghost
Walk
activity.
So
that's
the
those
are
nice
places
where
we
can
actually
get
in
the
get
in
the
field
and
and
and
actually
practice
communicating
and
passing
messages
back
and
forth.
So
it's
a
nice
very
easy
way
of
keeping
our
skills
up.
C
1999
was
a
year
when
many
agencies
and
organizations
worked
feverishly
to
prepare
for
the
y2k
bug
not
to
be
caught
off.
Guard
Jim
spent
numerous
hours
preparing
a
y2k
cares
plan
in
which
every
ham
radio
operator
knew
what
he
or
she
could
do
to
support
the
city's
efforts.
He
worked
with
outside
agencies
to
be
certain
that
they
understood
how
cares
could
be
of
assistance
in
the
event
of
a
major
end-of-year
incident.
N
Essentially,
over
the
course
of
four
days
from
December
31st
through
about
January
4th
Chara's
would
continue
to
monitor
the
state
of
the
city
and
the
country
just
making
sure
that
if
there
was
a
problem,
we
were
there
to
respond
so
I
think
the
overall
the
system
did
work,
I
think
the
the
team
did
very
well,
they
responded,
they
were
interested
and
excited,
and
because
of
that,
we
had
we
logged
about.
We
logged
about
250
hours
of
volunteer
time
over
that
four-day
period,
as
Kerris
members
were
on
standby,
in
preparation
for
a
y2k
response,
often.
C
N
As
a
volunteer
with
cares,
there's
there's
a
sense
that
you're
working
with
a
bigger
team
and
a
team
that
is
that
is
very
interested
in
in
and
in
doing
something
very
worthwhile
for
the
city
and
for
the
community.
I.
Think
the
the
feeling
that
the
sense
of
of
contribution
in
the
sense
of
involvement
with
your
neighbors,
as
well
as
with
the
city
I
think,
is
feels
very
good
to
me.
In.
N
K
You
know
Jim
Jim
is
a
true
leader.
Jim
has
an
organization
of
70
people
who
you
don't
see
much
there
behind
the
scenes,
but
he
keeps
him
fired
up
and
he
keeps
him
ready,
and
you
know
with
all
the
things
you
just
heard
about
on
the
tape
you
you
may
at
least
I
find
it
baffling
that
he
also
works
full-time
for
Agilent,
the
HP
spin-off.
He
travels
a
lot
for
work
and
still
manages
to
run
a
70
person
organization
for
Cupertino.
K
K
It
takes
an
organization
behind
the
scenes
to
make
it
so
those
things
don't
become
a
reality
and
they
don't
they
don't
terrorize
cities
and
they
don't
terrorize
people.
What
what
Jim
does
is
he's
behind
the
scenes,
making
sure
those
kind
of
things
don't
affect
us
and
I
felt
I
think
a
little
let
down
on
on
New
Year's
Eve
that
there
wasn't
something
happening,
but
that
had
that
was
because
we
were
ready
and
that's
because
a
lot
of
software
engineers
wrote
a
lot
of
code
and
that's
because
a
lot
of
people
check
their
systems.
K
A
lot
of
people
ran
tests,
and
fortunately
it's
fortunate
that
we
didn't
need
a
lot
of
the
disaster
preparedness
that
we
had.
But
if
you
don't
prepare
you
do
need
it
I
assure
you
and
it's
through
people
like
Jim
that
make
it
so
we
avoid
disasters,
it's
the
it's
being
prepared
for
them.
That
makes
them
so
that
they
are
not
disasters,
and
we
we
owe
you
a
lot
Jim
for
giving
us
that
comfort.
I
did
want
to
mention
one
one
other
thing
about
Jim.
K
You
know
he
he
does
more
more
behind
the
scenes
he's
in
his
house.
He
has
a
seismic
station,
so
he's
sitting
there
watching
those
wiggly
lines.
Well,
we're
not
thinking
about
it
and
he's
gonna
be
ready,
you
know
and
he
he
I,
don't
I'm,
not
sure
I
wanted
to
know
this,
but
he
tells
me
that
that
there's
a
lot
of
seismic
activity
here
so
but
I'm
sure
Jim
will
take
care
of
us.
So.
K
J
Am
very
privileged
to
present
the
next
award
to
one
of
our
many
active
service
organizations
in
the
city.
We
are
privileged
to
have
many
people
that
work
individually
and
those
that
join
organizations
and
also
put
energies
into
leveraging
that
multiple
energies
and
talents,
and
one
that
we
are
going
to
honor
tonight,
is
the
Rotary
Club
of
Cupertino,
so
I'm
going
to
ask
their
current
president
David
Stern's
to
please
join
me.
O
It's
the
volunteerism
really
that
makes
rotary
work.
It
makes
any
service
club
work
actually
and
the
nice
thing
about
Cupertino
rotary
is
it's
a
hundred
and
fifteen
members
of
a
variety
of
Ages
I
said
are
mostly
kind
of
gray-haired
people,
but
they're
really
active
people
and
really
willing
to
kick
in
for
things
to
work
hard
and
a
thing
like
the
crab
feed.
O
C
That
as
it
may,
the
Rotary
Club
of
Cupertino
has
been
involved
in
one
giant
home-improvement
project
for
the
past
45
years.
Home
in
their
case
is
the
Cupertino
community.
Where
club
members
have
been
building
a
strong
foundation
since
1955
the
year,
Cupertino
officially
became
a
city
whether
it's
a
paintbrush
or
a
pot
of
money.
The
Rotary
Club
lends
willing
hands
and
gives
what's
needed.
The
group's
annual
Oktoberfest
is
only
one
example
of
how
far
into
the
community,
this
organization
really
reaches
the.
O
Money
from
that
that
we
make
goes
to
support
a
variety
of
organizations,
there's
a
lot
of
organizations
who
attend
Oktoberfest
and
work
at
say,
kinder
plots,
and
there
are
many
fundraisers
in
themselves.
For
example,
all
the
PTA
is
the
elementary
schools
have
a
table
there
and
they
do
some
sort
of
game
and
some
sort
of
thing
and
they
get
to
keep
the
money
from
that.
We
know
take
any
and
we
provide
the
crowd
and
they
get
to
run
a
little
fundraiser.
The.
O
We
really
like
about
Oktoberfest
is
not
it's
not
as
big
a
fundraiser
in
terms
of
you
know,
dollars
raised
as
the
golf
tournament,
but
it's
it's
really
a
lot
more
fun
weekend
for
the
whole
city
and
not
that
many
people
can
play
golf.
If
you
give
a
golf
tournament,
you
can
only
handle.
You
know
two
hundred
people,
maybe
two
due
to
various
golfing
offense,
but
you
throw
in
Oktoberfest
and
you
can
get
sixty
thousand
people
to
come
to
your
party.
So
Oktoberfest
is
more
like
a
party
we
throw
for
the
city
each.
C
O
Was
done
at
De,
Anza
College
and
that's
a
benefit
for
the
nasc
National
Association
of
student
councils,
which
are
having
a
national
convention
at
Mauna
Vista
High
School
this
year
and
at
the
ends
of
college,
and
it
was
our
way
of
helping
out
that
event
and
we
were
already
doing
one
crab
feed
someone
suggested
the
G.
Could
we
help
out
nasc
with
some
money
and
we
said
well
we're
a
little
strapped
for
organizational
cash
right
now,
we've
committed
everything
for
the
year,
but
how
about
we
throw
another
cab
fee
so
that
one
was
spontaneous
an.
C
O
Get
on
to
Guatemala
those
people
live
in
cardboard,
shacks
they
do
not
have
much
stuff,
they
have
a
lot
of
kids.
Those
kids
are
often
sick.
They
often
have
bad
eyes
and
surprisingly,
small
efforts
can
have
big
differences
in
the
lives
of
of
a
community
down
there.
We've
been
a
probably
the
key
service
organization
in
the
effort
to
eradicate
polio
and
Portland.
Polio
is
almost
beaten.
O
M
J
You
notice
some
of
the
faces
you
saw
in
that
film.
You
will
understand
that
the
Rotary
Club
of
Cupertino
really
reaches
across
all
the
different
professions
and
all
the
different
parts
of
our
community,
represented
on.
There
are
three
of
your
City
Council
members,
your
city
manager,
your
under
sheriff
for
the
county
president
of
the
college,
about
every
profession
you
can
imagine-
and
these
are
people
that
work
very,
very
hard
and
put
many
hours
in
to
bring
all
kinds
of
activities
to
the
community
and
to
give
services.
J
This
year
the
Rotary
Club
golf
tournament,
which
was
last
weekend,
will
be
giving
about
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
the
new
Senior
Center.
In
addition
to
which
they've
raised
additional
monies
for
their
general
fund
to
go
to
other
services,
we
partner
with
quota
club
as
a
matter
of
fact,
with
the
children's
shopping
expedition,
and
so
it
is
also
partnerships
with
other
agencies.
J
There
are
numerous
speech
contest
for
teens.
There
are
interact
clubs
within
our
high
schools.
We
have
also
a
holiday
luncheon
for
our
seniors,
and
the
list
just
goes
on
and
on
and
on.
It
is
a
service
organization
which
really
does
benefit
and
enrich
our
community
and
David
I.
Congratulate
you.
Please
take
our
best
wishes
and
congratulations
to
your
Hope
Club.
J
And
I
think
if
the
Rotary
Club
of
Cupertino
is
a
good
example
of
how
the
community
brings
together
different
professions
in
different
parts
of
our
community,
our
next
honoree
Chuck
Thompson
also
does
that
because
he
represents
many
different
interests,
including
technology
and
education
and
service.
Above
others.
Please
welcome
Chuck
Thompson
and
let's
learn
a
little
bit
more
about
her.
P
C
Self-Described
ex
workaholic
Chuck
Thompson
will
tell
you
that
a
good
deal
of
that
pleasure
he
gets
from
life
comes
from
a
job
he's
been
doing
since
1992
a
job
with
the
title
a
community
volunteer
when
the
computer
company
he
worked
for
closed
eight
years
ago,
Chuck
looked
around
for
a
way
to
become
involved
and
he
spotted
city
net.
The
electronic
bulletin
board,
founded
by
former
Cupertino
mayor
Wally,
Dean
I,
didn't.
P
P
Seemed
to
surprise
a
lot
of
people,
the
fact
that
somebody
would
but
would
choose
to
do
this
and
I
guess
it
suddenly
dawned
on
me
how
much
we
don't
help
each
other
I
mean
we
do
help
each
other.
We're
polite
we're
a
civilized
society
for
sure,
but
we
just
don't
make
that
extra
effort
to
sort
of
step
out
of
your
way
with.
C
That
thought
in
mind
it
wasn't
long
before
Chuck
began
volunteering
for
the
Fremont
Union
High
School
District
Foundation
board
for
the
past
four
years.
He
has
served
as
treasurer
of
the
board,
but
the
role
he
plays
reaches
far
beyond
that
position.
He
was
one
of
the
key
campaigners
for
the
district,
successful
measure
h-bond
initiative
that
raised
144
million
dollars
for
renovations
in
the
five
high
schools
that.
C
P
Name
for
it
is
Anytime
Anywhere
learning
they
can
have
their
computer
as
a
tool.
It's
not
we're
not
trying
to
teach
them
computers,
it's
trying
to
use
it
as
a
productive
tool
in
education
and
in
life,
since
I
do
believe
in
education
and
I
do
believe
in
in
computers.
I
think
this
is
a
very
important
aspect,
and
so
one
of
the
goals
of
the
foundation
is
to
make
sure
that
no
student
is
left
out
of
it.
P
C
P
C
P
It's
so
internal,
you
know
you
can't
really
describe
it,
but
there's
a
lot
of
psychological
benefit.
You
get
a
lot
of
good
feelings
about
yourself
or
about
humanity
from
doing
it,
and
you
know
there
are
a
lot
of
people
out
there
and
I
think
what
they
just
need
is
like
me,
the
opportunity
with
time
to
be
exposed
to
it
and
get
it
done.
J
I
think
that
the
rotary
motto
is
Service
Above,
Self
and
Chuck.
Thompson
is
certainly
a
good
example.
We're
gonna
have
to
get
you
involved
there,
Chuck
Chuck
epitomizes,
the
common
thread
you
see,
woven
here
this
evening
amongst
the
people
in
the
organization's
we're
talking
about,
and-
and
that
is
that,
when
you
give,
when
you
really
give
you
get
back
more
than
you
give,
and
you
really
you
make
friends
and
you
build
community
and
you
learn
about
others,
and
your
life
becomes
more
enriched.
J
Chuck
has
been
very
very
involved
in
that
the
the
major
aid
campaign,
which
was
critically
important
to
modernizing
our
high
schools,
will
also
coordinate
with
the
city
because,
as
Jean
just
won,
her
award
we're
gonna,
be
building
a
new
library
and
we
certainly
are
not
going
to
do
it
in
isolation.
So
we'll
be
networking
with
all
the
new
libraries
that
the
High
School
District
does.
So
all
of
this
comes
together
in
a
very
nice.
Well
and
very
nice
way
to
acknowledge
the
contributions
of
mr.
Chuck
Thompson,
the
rest
of
the
community.
J
B
P
Try
to
reach
out
and
help
I
mean
and
do
it
in
just
trivial
ways
you
can
meet,
make
so
much
difference
to
somebody
they
can
make
an
impression
on
them
to
help
them
volunteer
or
choose
to
volunteer.
Then
that's
really.
What
I'm
trying
to
do
is
encourage
other
people
to
just
help
their
friends
and
neighbors
and
people.
They
don't
know
the.
O
N
N
L
Always
been
an
information
person,
gee
I
like
the
library.
What
do
you
think
so?
I
look
at
information,
I
analyze,
it
I
come
out
with
a
product,
whether
it's
a
timeline
or
a
to-do
list,
or
something
and
that's
easy
for
me.
I
can
be
a
volunteer
in
anything
I
want,
but
the
library
is
just
really
close
to
my
heart.
So
that's
where
I
am
Debbie.
C
H
Everyone
has
a
small
amount
of
time
whether
and
it
could
be
daily
or
weekly
or
monthly.
To
do
something
and
I
just
feel
that
it's
real
important
and
after
meeting
everyone
and
pretty
much
growing
up
with
them
in
Cupertino
I,
just
like
the
people
and
it's
very
fun,
to
helps
motivate
you
to
stay
involved.

You
know
it's
not
often
that
we
get
a
chance
to
bring
together
such
a
distinguished
collection
of
people,
people
that
have
really
helped
make
this
town
what
it
is
tonight
and
to
celebrate
the
things
that
they've
done.
The
things
that
they've
given
us
I
think
this
is
an
excellent
for
us
to
do
that.
There's
one
one
person
here
tonight,
though,
who
you
first
saw
kick
off
the
evenings
event
that
has
been
with
us
for
over
10
years
now
we're
coming
up
on
10
years,
a
city
manager
and
that's
Donald,
Brown
and
Donna.
