Dear Fellow Rotarians,
      Just a note to thank everyone who helped make the Friday Welcome Center Rotary Coffee Break a success! We raised just over $1,200 from donations! That's the best single-day total from the past three years at the Center. They provide a great opportunity for many organizations, including ours. We appreciate
       Special thanks to Jenifer Ambler for her help in opening up, mid-day support and closing, as well.
President Jeff stopped by twice and helped count the proceeds at the end of the day, as well.
       Those helping at the center (with food, too)  included Mike Mandracchia, Rob Szpila, Katja Matthews, Cindy Jerome, Rich Carroll, Cyndi Ferrante (who also made a couple of trips), Irma Robertson, Bill McKim, Roger Allbee, Tom French, Jenifer Ambler, Carl Lynde and me.
        Those who also donated food or cash included Sandy Rouse, Betsy Gentile, David Neumeister, Uncle Stevie Stearns, Marty Cohn, Carla Lineback, Dart and Joy Everett, John Kohler, Jeff Morse, Tami Purcell, Bill Vermouth, Rick Manson, Cathy Coonan, Chris Wocell, Ricky Davidson, Cheri Ann Brodhurst,  Gina Pattison and Ana Saavedra.
        The Bagel Works provided five gallons of coffee, along with bagels and cream cheese. The Main Street Subway  donated a platter of sandwiches.
        Again, thanks to all in the club who were willing to help with this event, and to everyone who helps make our club special in so many ways!
Best wishes,
Greg Worden
