Scholarships at 5 local high schools,
Interact Clubs at 3 local schools.
Support the YMCA, City Center, Ventura Botanical Gardens
Promote literacy and career guidance in schools
Internationally we support a medical project in Ethiopia and contribute to eliminating Polio worldwide.

As I write my last President’s Message and pass the gavel to Tim Hughes, I’d like to Thank everyone for their support these past three months!! I’d especially like to recognize Ashley for all her help setting up our programs – A Very Big Thank You! I look forward to Tim’s tenure as President and pledge my support
as we move forward with our Rotary Year.

This Thursday we’ll be hearing from Stephanie Caldwell from our very own Ventura Chamber of Commerce. As a member of the Chamber, it will be interesting to hear how our Club can leverage that membership into helping grow the Club, as well as all businesses within the City of Ventura.

Save the Date - As we look ahead into October, be sure to keep your calendar open October 8^th for the Family Farm Fest at Sa’aliyas Ranch @ Pacific High School. Our Club will be helping the School District with this event - more information to follow as the date draws near. This will be a great way for us to show our support for the many wonderful things the School District is doing at Sa’aliyas Ranch.

See you this Thursday
