Thanks to Paula Stewart who saw this and to everyone who nominated Rotary! We have a beautiful print. It will reside at Marilyn Hansen's until Girl's Night Out 2018 when it will once again see the light of day and be auctioned off. Habitat for HumanityMany Rotarians are interested in joining a work party on a future Habitat for Humanity building project. The Lunch crew offered up 10 or 12 members and not to be outdone, the Cocktail crew offered about the same number. Marilyn will let Habitat for Humanity know that we "are in!" Local Needs: A motion was made by Gloria James and seconded by Darlene Elder that we donate $500 to the Salvation Army Christmas program. A vote was held and the results will be tabulated once the lunch meeting folks have voted - but it looks pretty promising to me! |
