Growing Up Farley: A Story of Addiction, Love and Forgiveness
Jul 17, 2024
TOM FARLEY grew up in Madison and graduated from Georgetown University with a degree in Marketing. He began his career in banking and finance, living and working in the New York City area. From 1999 to 2012, he ran The Chris Farley Foundation, a nationally recognized non-profit dedicated to substance abuse prevention. Like his brother, Tom was successful in opening the “eyes and ears” of youth audiences through the powerful and effective use of humor. In 2008 he wrote “The Chris Farley Show”, a New York Time bestselling biography of his late brother, the actor and comedian Chris Farley. In his Rotary presentation, Tom will chronicle his lifelong journey with his brother, Chris. Touching on lessons learned from Chris and his struggles with addiction, Tom will begin by speaking about his brother’s addiction and the affects it had on his family, and specifically, himself. He will discuss his own journey in recovery and his work as an advocate for those with substance use disorders. Using humor, the family gift, Tom approaches these difficult topics with compassion, generosity, and honesty. |

Moments of Happiness: A Wisconsin Band Story: A Conversation with Doug Moe and Mike Leckrone
Oct 09, 2024 12:10 PM
DOUG MOE is a former editor of Madison Magazine and wrote a daily newspaper column in Madison for two decades and has published more than a dozen books. When MIKE LECKRONE retired as director of bands at the University of Wisconsin in 2019, he had served in that role for an astonishing fifty years. A brilliant showman, he became known for aerial stunts and sequined outfits. He created the Fifth Quarter celebration that follows all home football games, removed barriers for women to march in the band, and established regular appearances at Camp Randall by special-needs high school musicians. On October 9, our club will host a discussion of their new book, Moments of Happiness which details the stories behind the highlights and the unglamorous work that made Leckrone's accomplishments possible. It both cements his legend and offers unprecedented insights into a career that will never be equaled. |
