Last week we had a business meeting and a special viewing of Bill Donahue's daughter and Ak' Tenamit 2-time veteran, Julia Donahue's 12min short film "Ak' Tenamit: The New Village of Guatemala". It was an amazing film that really captured the essence of the Guatemala expierence. For those of you who missed this wonderful video, it can be viewed by clicking here. Julia presented Stephen and Dan with movie posters of her film. We had several families attend our meeting that are regular Guatemala volunteers. Thank you Julia for sharing the video and thank you to all the dedicated volunteers!
Former Rotary member Cathy Splett is coming to town from CA later this month. Anyone who knows Cathy knows she loves baseball. So, we are having a BG Rotary outing to the Schaumberg Boomers game on Saturday evening the 29th. The Boomers are playing the Joliet Slammers.
The gates open at 5:30 and the game starts at 6:30. There is a fireworks show after the game.
Tom has rented a 25 person indoor/outdoor suite for that night. If the interest is great enough it can be bumped up to a 35 person suite.
Tickets are $26 per person. Don’t worry about the payment at this time as the 25 tickets have already been paid for. We just need to know who is interested/available to attend. Let Tom know (tjkloepfer@att.net) and he’ll keep track of the attendees. There are also four parking passes available for the group, so hopefully we can get some carpools going to get everyone there easily.
Lastly, while food/beverage packages are available for purchase with a suite rental, it’s probably best to let everyone do there own thing for food and drinks there at the stadium.
Any questions should go to Tom at 847-436-0212.
Let’s get a nice crowd out there that night as the Rotary Club of Buffalo Grove will be recognized on the scoreboard at some point during the game.
The Buffalo Grove Rotary's 50th anniversary committee is seeking contact information for past members so that we can invite them to our celebration. Please contact Glenn Meier with that information either at our meetings or by email at gem282@aol.com
