Rotary club

The Brown County Rotary Club will meet via Zoom at 8 a.m. Thursday, Dec. 3.

Dr. Norman Oestrike, Brown County health officer, will be the guest speaker. Dr. Oestrike will discuss the progress of COVID-19 in Brown County, the steps we have taken to stop that spread, the effectiveness of those steps and scenarios for the future.

Dr. Oestrike graduated from IU School of Medicine in 1970 and served his internship, residency and fellowship at IU Health University Hospital. He is board-certified in neurology, which specialty he practiced until his retirement in 2005. He served on the health board for three years and was then appointed to the health officer position seven years ago.

Those interested in exploring opportunities to participate in projects and to be of service to the community also are invited to attend the Zoom session. Visit rotaryclubofbrowncounty.org and click “Contact us” to obtain a link.
