Club Members,

Please join us at the District 5190 Reno/Sparks Area 8 Foundation Dinner.  This is a celebration of the Rotary Foundation programs.  Remember that last Rotary year ending in June 30th, our club was Number 1 in Per Capita Giving, 100% Every Rotarian Every Year (EREY), 100% Sustaining Members!  Congratulation and Thank You once again!  So let's celebrate!

This year's dinner will be at the Atlantis Hotel & Casino.  No Host cocktails at 5:30 p.m. and dinner starting at 6:30 p.m.  You will have pleasure of hearing our Keynote Speaker, Jean Irwin-Hatfield. 

Jean Irwin is a retired Teacher of the Deaf from Reno, Nevada. She has taught in grades pre-school through 12th grade in 12 schools. Jean was an Ambassadorial Scholar in 1989 . She speaks to many Rotary groups about the long term effects of investment in the Foundation.

The Ambassadorial Scholarship Jean received allowed her to do research into reading and deafness 22 years ago which earned her a Master’s Degree from Nottingham University in England. After this education, her students broke what is considered a glass ceiling for the deaf and achieved high levels of reading.

The cost of the dinner is $50.00 each and will be collected by our club.  We must have your reservation By November 1st.  Please click on the box to let us know if you will be attending or not.
