It will be the dress rehersal before the opening of "Jersey Boys", the Tony award winning musical about Franki Valli and the Four Seasons. I might have to sing along. PDG Kay is spearheading an effort with a kickoff meeting on 8/7 for the Twin Ports Clubs to work together on Interact, Rotaract, Paul Harris Dinner, Recital for a Cause, International service, and the 2026 District Conference in Duluth.

Thought for the Week
"If there is righteousness in the heart, there will be beauty in the character. If there is beauty in the character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nations. When there is order in the nations, there will be peace in the world."
