SUMMARY:Club Meeting: Keeping Our Power Affordable and Reliable
DESCRIPTION:Northwest RiverPartners is a member-driven nonprofit advocating for clean\, reliable\, and affordable hydropower on behalf of community-owned utilities\, ports\, and businesses across the Pacific Northwest. A recent DHM Research survey commissioned by NWRP found that concerns about electricity costs are rising across the region\, with at least three in four residents supporting the use of hydroelectric dams. Clark Mather\, Executive Director\, will offer a timely regional perspective on these trends and what they mean for local communities including how growing demand from data centers and electrification\, alongside existing agricultural needs\, is shaping policy decisions that will determine how the Columbia-Snake River hydropower system performs in the years ahead. \nAbout us: The Rotary Club of Wilsonville meets weekly Thursdays at noon to carry out its purpose of providing service and fellowship to members and the Wilsonville community. Guests are welcome. Lunch is available off the menu; please arrive and order by 11:45 a.m. if you are ordering lunch. For more information\, email president@wilsonvillerotary.com. \nBio: Clark Mather was appointed executive director of Northwest RiverPartners in 2024.

SUMMARY:Club Meeting: Real AI for Local Business
DESCRIPTION:Most of what you hear about AI is either hype or fear. Nathan Spear will show what AI is actually doing right now inside small businesses\, many of them right here around Clackamas County. The biggest wins come from fitting AI into the work you already do every day: email\, scheduling\, follow-ups and reporting. You’ll see real examples with real numbers\, like a family boat builder answering hundreds of forgotten website inquiries\, and a local process server whose morning job check now runs itself. No pitch and no jargon. You’ll leave with two things you can try in your own business that week\, plus a list of resources to keep going. \nAbout us: The Rotary Club of Wilsonville meets weekly Thursdays at noon to carry out its purpose of providing service and fellowship to members and the Wilsonville community. Guests are welcome. Lunch is available off the menu; please arrive and order by 11:45 a.m. if you are ordering lunch. For more information\, email president@wilsonvillerotary.com. \nBio: Nathan Spear is the founder of Spearworks AI in Clackamas\, where he helps owner-run businesses put AI to work: getting found on Google and in AI search\, automating the busywork\, and building simple systems that run themselves. Before starting Spearworks AI\, he spent more than 20 years in enterprise technology at IBM\, Lenovo and Rackspace\, then in customer success\, where he managed more than $36 million in cloud spending for enterprise clients. He is FinOps Foundation certified and recently earned Pavilion’s AI in Go-To-Market certificate.

Attendees will gain insight into how restorative justice strengthens relationships\, rebuilds trust\, and creates safer\, healthier communities through practices centered on accountability\, communication\, and collaboration. \nAbout us: The Rotary Club of Wilsonville meets weekly Thursdays at noon to carry out its purpose of providing service and fellowship to members and the Wilsonville community.

Her work is rooted in compassion\, justice\, and a commitment to creating safe spaces for healing and transformation.
