Dear Rotarians and Friends,
What a wonderful Thursday meeting we have had! First we heard updates from our Committees who have been hard at work preparing for all of our upcoming events. Then our very own Janika LeMaitre was the recipient of the Paul Harris Fellow Award. Join us this Thursday as we have our Committee Team meetings and present a RYLA Award to a very deserving sophomore. If you have not joined our Team meetings recently this is the meeting for you! See you all soon. Katya Portnaya, President.
