CANCELED March 16 Meeting
The weekly South Tyler Rotary Club meeting scheduled for Monday, March 16, 2020 and the March STR Board meeting scheduled for Thursday, March 19, 2020 will not be held. The STR Leadership Team is canceling both events to ensure the safety and health of our club members. Thank you for all you do and please stay safe!
 
DISTRICT GRANT OPPORTUNITY
One of Diane Kavanaugh's roles as President-Elect is to submit a proposal for a District Project Grant for next year. The proposals are due May 1st and the funding comes in this summer after she takes office. This year, our district grant is approximately $1,300, which requires a minimum match of least $1,300, for a minimum grant of $2,600.
 
The project we support will need to fall into one of the Rotary areas of focus:
  • Maternal and Children's Health
  • Economic Development
  • Water & Sanitation
  • Peace and Conflict Resolution
  • Basic Education/Literacy
  • Disease Prevention
This can be a local project or an international project (let's go local!). Talk with Diane ASAP about your suggestions and ideas for the grant; your input is needed before the STR board meeting later this month. 
 
SAVE THE DATE: APRIL 4, 2020 - DISTRICT TRAINING ASSEMBLY
The next District Training Assembly is scheduled for April 4th in Tyler at First Christian Church. Any member is welcome to attend. Incoming board members and committee members are encouraged to attend.

Mission ImPASTAble

HARLEY HOOPER

Harley’s & Bridgette’s

Harley Hooper has owned and operated The Suit Club, Inc. and its predecessor, Harley’s Menswear, since 1979. The business has since grown into one of the distinguished and well-known menswear stores in the East Texas area. Harley’s carries top-of-the-line menswear brands and also offers tuxedo sales and rentals. The business outgrew its rental space and relocated in 2006 to a newer, more upscale facility just two blocks away, which not only ensured retention of existing customers, but resulted in a vast improvement in customer exposure and convenience.

Harley’s wife Bridgette has owned and operated her ladies’ ready to wear boutique since August of 1992, and has 23 years of experience in the women’s retail clothing industry in Tyler. Relocating both stores to the same building allowed some consolidation of overhead in accounting and administrative functions, and in the process created a “destination” retail center for men, women, and children of all ages.
