Howell Rotary News – June 27, 2011
Today’s program is none other than “Jay Drick”. Jay always has something fun up his sleeve for his annual program. Looking forward to seeing everyone back at the Community Rooms at the hospital today.
Thanks to our members--and especially to coordinator Candy Jones-Guerin--for providing parking and security support at the Balloonfest. This was a great way to raise funds for our club as well as get additional visibility in the community. Great job by all!
The 2011 Tour de Livingston officially Kicked-Off yesterday. We had ~ 100 participants that enjoyed the beautiful morning, breathtaking balloon fly-in, and either a 10-mile or 29-mile ride. What a great way to start the Tour de Livingston! Thanks to our friends at the Howell Chamber and the Balloonfest Committee for providing such a great venue for our Kick Off.
The Livingston County United Way’s Day of Caring is August 17th. We need a Howell Rotarian to take the lead for our club’s involvement that day. We can choose to be involved in the morning, afternoon, or all day. This has been a very rewarding day for those who’ve participated in the past.
The Howell Rotary Club is the exclusive coordinator of the Melon Ice Cream sales for the Howell Melon Festival, August 19, 20 and 21. We’ll need lots of help to make this a successful weekend. All proceeds go towards our club-sponsored youth programs. Mark your calendars to join us for a shift (or two!)
