Fellow Rotarians,
 
Let me begin by thanking each of you for all of your hard work. We are seeing wonderful results and growth. Everyone has stepped up to the plate and worked incredibly hard to make this our best Shrimp Boil ever.
 
We are entering the home stretch and there are a few things to bear in mind as we make our final push. As mentioned, this Tuesday is the final day for apron sponsorships and regular sponsorships of $2,500 and over (which go on the back of the t-shirts). In order to have everything in time for sponsor bag distribution that is the date that I will need to turn in everything to the printer.
 
On a similar subject, if you have sold an apron sponsorship or a $2,500 and up sponsorship that was not at that level before, I need a PDF of the company's logo by next Tuesday as well. If your sponsor has been on either one in years past then it will not be required (unless they have a new logo).
 
Another item that was mentioned today-if you have not gotten any raffle tickets to sell, please be sure to come see Keith Frank at next week's meeting. We all need to do our part to get them sold.
 
Lisa Pauls has been working very hard on our auction-let's please do all we can to help her by providing the best items possible. As well, please invite potential bidders to the event-the best items won't bring a good price without good bidders.
 
Finally, let's do our best to get the word out about our event, whether it is by word of mouth or social media. We have a lot of fun activities this year, and need the community to be informed so we can bring as many people as possible to the event.
 
Once again, thank you for everything you have all done, and continue to do.
