Rock Climbing FUNdraiser

You're invited to join us for an awesome rock climbing experience as we raise funds for our Rotary Club! For just $25, you'll get everything you need to start climbing including the gear (harness/shoes) and a short intro lesson for those who need it. Funds raised from this event will benefit our next service project where we’ll be heading to Mexico to build a loft home for a family in need.

DETAILS:
When: Wednesday, March 28th from 6-9pm
Where: Vertical Hold Poway
13026 Stowe Dr, Poway, CA 92064
What: $25 fee gets you everything you need to climb for 3 hours. Vertical hold has both electronic and hand-held belays so you can climb with or without a partner. Please wear athletic clothes and shoes. ...Feel free to bring a water bottle. Must be 13+ year old to participate.

How: Purchase tickets in advance at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rock-climb-rotray-fundraiser-tickets-43761453686?aff=efbeventtix
Why: to raise money for our loft home build with Project Mercy. Homes cost approximately $5,000 in materials and take just a day to build. We will be helping a young family with children who are currently homeless and living in a makeshift shelter made out of cardboard boxes, hallowed out old cars, and other items commonly discarded at a dumpsite. This home will allow them to stay warm, dry, and most importantly, safe.

We look forward to having fun and giving back with you at Vertical Hold! Please invite your friends and help us spread the word on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/events/298318940695897/

For questions please contact Allan - (619) 246-9300

Rotarians At Work Day April 28th

On Saturday April 28th Rotarians around the world will be volunteering in various hands-on projects to help their local community. Since it was started in 2006, this day of work is always held the last Saturday of April.

For our club, we have two project opportunities for that day and we need YOUR VOTE to determine which we'll undertake:

Urban Street Angels Home Beautification - the boys' transitional youth home in Urban Street Angels 18-month program needs a serious facelift. They need some yardwork, painting, and a few other structural items repaired. We have already applied and been approved for a $500 district grant specifically to benefit USA, as well as having $500 matching from our club for a total of $1,000. We need to complete a project for USA before the end of April or we will have to send the $500 grant back to the district. So, by serving them on RAW, we will be helping them tremendously and satisfying the obligation of our district grant.
Out of the Boat Art Gala - Out of the Boat is having an art gala fundraiser on the day of RAW and could use volunteers to help set up, serve food, and other light duties during the event.

PLEASE EMAIL CRAIG WITH YOUR VOTE FOR WHICH PROJECT YOU WANT US TO DO FOR ROTARIANS AT WORK DAY - RESPONSES NEEDED BY MARCH 28!
