This Friday we will meet at the YMCA and it will be a hybrid meeting. Our presenter will be Natalie Zeleznikar who is the COO of Spectrum Health Companies. She will discuss senior healthcare. Duties will be: Invocation - Kevin Kalligher, Fellowship - Hugo Hietapelto, and Greeter - Jodi May.
RI Convention starts Saturday in Houston.
Following our meeting last Friday we did our first Highway Clean up of the year. Good crew beautiful weather, but what is that I feel crawling up my back? Wood ticks, Yikes. Thank you to Hugo, Penny, and Greg for bringing the stuff and to Stacy, Garret, Joe, and Mark. No thank you to the ticks.
The June Board meeting is on Wednesday the 8th at 4:00. Location to be determined. As always all members are welcome to join us.
Next week Friday 6/10 we will meet at the Hermantown Outdoor Classroom behind the Elementary School off of Arrowhead Road. We have a few projects to do. We will put some river rock in the swale behind the classroom, install the gutter and downspout, and do some more work on the benches. Dress for manual labor and bring drills if you have them. I will be sure to have enough screws (but Menards is close).
On Wednesday, June 22 at the Great Lakes Aquarium DGE Kay Biga from ECO Club here in Duluth will be inducted as District 5580 Governor. The celebration starts at 5:00. Go to https://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040848a8a82ca3fe3-district to sign up.

June is Rotary Fellowship Month.
Thought for the Week
"The hardest goodbyes are the ones that you don't see coming. The ones that you don't plan. Or could ever imagine happening. Like one day you're both together. And little do you know that today will be your last day spent. Sometimes there is nothing sadder than that."
