Welcome to Skyline Rotary



Duluth Skyline Rotary is a member of Rotary District 5580
Skyline Rotary Meets weekly on Fridays at 12:00 PM.
We will be meeting both virtually using Zoom and/or in person at the Duluth YMCA:
Duluth YMCA: 4289 Ugstad Rd. Hermantown, MN 55811 - Driving Directions
 
 
This Friday 4/29 we will eat a quick lunch at the YMCA. You can Zoom in if you wish. We will then go to Second Harvest, 4503 Airpark Blvd, Duluth, MN 55811. If leaving from the YMCA go east on Arrowhead Road to North on Haines Road to East on Airpark Blvd. The building is on the north side of the road. Some of us will work at Second Harvest, but Russ will need some help with student scholarship interviews starting at 1:30 in Proctor. Please coordinate with Russ. There will be no duties as we will eat and go.  
 
Next Friday May 6th we will meet at the YMCA and our presenter will be Sarah Lerohl from WLSSD. Duties will be: Invocation - Todd M Johnson and Fellowship - Todd Peyton. 
 
Last Saturday a hardy crew of Skyline Rotarians braved the weather and picked up a mountain of trash at the Main Street Lincoln Park Spring Clean up (check out the pictures on the website). Thanks Greg, Ross, Suzanne, Deb, and Mark. 
 
You may want to check the 10:00 Fox news 21 tonight Tuesday for an interview with Bob Sherman who is now back in town. Welcome back Bob.  
 
Stay tuned for news of a party to celebrate Mark's District 5580 Rotarian of the Year. My thanks to the Club for nominating me. 
 
Greg and Mark scoped out two projects at the Boulder Lake Environmental Learning Center. The first project will be done on Friday May 20th. 
 
The first week in May starting on the 6th will be our Club's Blood Drive week at the Memorial Blood Center office in the Burning Tree Plaza. Please invite family and friends to schedule to donate that week. When you schedule at 888-448-3253, let the Center know that you are donating for Skyline Rotary.
 
Last week we had one guest. Ben Rybak was a guest of Joe's who works at Wells Fargo. Our program of connecting to watch the District Conference was a technical washout. So we had a social hour and heard an update on the Refugee Center project and tales of Matt and Kris' trip to Scotland. We are hoping for a more detailed presentation when Kris can join the telling.
