Greetings Fellow Rotarians
Posted by Mike Griffin
Summer is flying by and I hope that you have had an opportunity to enjoy our "little dose" of it this week.
Several Rotarians were off island this week having a good time and representing San Juan Island Rotary.
John and Mary Kalbert cruised to Sydney, B. C. and were joined by Brenna Woods for the International Yachting Fellowship.
Also, Tom Barrett, Dick Shorett, Frank Fagan, and I were in Langley for the Rotary Golfun Tournament. We thought we had done pretty well, posting a 43.5, until we got to the Clubhouse and heard other sores. The winner was 30.0!
There are several opportunities coming up for you to expand your knowledge of Rotary and meet fellow Rotarians in your District:
