Rotary Friendship Exchange
By Madeleine King
Rotary Friendship Exchange is a great way to get to know Rotarians from other countries – they host us and we host them! The Australians who hosted our district last summer are coming here July 11-24. Some if not all will be coming early to enjoy Stampede. They’d just stay with our club for 2/3 days. Some of you offered help by putting your hands up in the meeting Jan 6 – please will those kind members identify themselves!
Contact Madeleine (400-4404) or Yegana (ayegana@yahoo.com) if you can help.
Thank you COG Sponsor Fortune Industries and Lou McEachern
