April is Rotary International Environmental month. Zone 29 would like Clubs to do water related projects. ECO and Harbortown are doing a beach cleanup on Saturday, April 25th from 10:00-noon at Park Point (meeting at the shelter just west of the beach house). We can join them.

Guests last week were: Susan Meyer, Brad Jenson, Jill Baum, and Alee DeVlieger.
We had a second misfire on our speaker, but a full discussion on scheduling upcoming projects. Jill Baum, District Environment Committee Chair and ECO Club member told us about plans for this Saturday's beach cleanup. Brad Jenson Past Skyliner and current President of Harbortown Club and Mark talked about their initiative called the Twin Ports Inter-Club Council. It is an effort to increase communication and cooperation between the Twin Ports Clubs. Our RYLA student, Alee DeVlieger, introduced herself. Emily walked us through scheduling projects working with the YMCA. The projects are now on our calendar.

Thought for the Week
"The ultimate test of a person's conscience may be their willingness to sacrifice something today for future generations whose words of thanks will not be heard."
