This Week's Meeting
Our program this week includes a presentation by Tracy Rubstello, Development Director of the Bridge Receiving Center. The Bridge Receiving Center's purpose is to create a more stable environment for kids entering foster careTracy last visited with us in February 2019 when the facility was just getting going. At that time she indicated that there was a huge shortage in Washington State of foster homes. This week she provide an update on her facility and foster care needs in general.

Scholarships 2020-2021
Each year, our Scholarship Program is administered through the Vocational Services Committee and is the highlight of our Rotary year and this year was just another example of how important it is to provide these incredible seniors from Lake Stevens High School with scholarships.
 
We presented the scholarships at our hybrid meeting last week. Recipients and their families joined us online while the Vocational Committee was at our meeting location.
 
The Rotary Club of Lake Stevens is a little Club that gives big! Our Club is rather small in size with 47 members and we were able to provide $22,000 in scholarships funds to nine amazing students headed off to Universities, Colleges and Trade Schools. Applicants were judged based on leadership within their school, providing service to others in our community, an essay addressing the Rotary Four Way Test, academics and successful participation throughout our interview process. We are proud to have the ability to provide these scholarships in this difficult time thanks to the support of the Lake Stevens community. We know these students will be successful in whatever endeavor they pursue and the Rotary Club is happy to participate in their success. We hope that through this experience, the students learned a little more about Rotary and they consider membership in the future.
 
Congratulations to all of the graduates!
