It's May social time so join your fellow Topeka South Rotarians this Thursday, May 11 for some old fashioned fun with bowling and arcade games at The Pennant. We'll meet from 5:00 to 7:00 pm and you can find The Pennant at 917 S. Kansas Avenue. See you then!

DONATIONS NEEDED FOR OUR SERVICE TRIP TO GUATEMALA

We are only three months away from this year’s trip to Guatemala and we want to give a big thank you to Topeka South Rotarians for your weekly donations to our can money fund this quarter. Your generous donations will be buying at least 40 pairs of shoes to take to the Guatemalan children and provide us funds to paint the clinic in Patanatic.
 
This year’s trip will be from July 15th-22nd. We already have several Rotarians from both TSR and the Downtown club committed to going on this trip. They will be personally delivering and/or implementing all of items that TSR and Downtown donate or purchase. If you would like to be a part of this trip please contact Faron Barr (785-266-8333 or fbarr@t-mfinancial.com). This link has more information about the trip.
 
There are still several items needed to make this years’ service trip a success. Starting at our Friday morning meeting on May 4th and continuing for each Friday in May, we will be collecting the following items:
 
 
  • Baby clothes age 1 month to 24 months
  • Tooth brushes
  • Pens and pencils
  • Wood crayons
  • Erasers
  • Soccer balls
  • Basketball and volleyballs
  • Over the counter medicine such as prenatal vitamins, ibuprophen, and Advil
We thank you for your continuous support of this very important project.

26th ANNUAL TSR GOLF TOURNAMENT - JUNE 15

Mark your calendars for a fabulous golf outing to benefit Topeka South Rotary! This year is the 26th Annual Topeka South Rotary Golf Tournament. Proceeds will benefit the Rotary Foundation.
 
Friday, June 15, 2018
Registration – 11:30 am
Tee off  - 1:00 pm
Cypress Ridge Golf Course
 
Golf committee chair Gary Lucas challenges each Rotarian to get together a team with three non-Rotarians. A great way to raise more money and invite some prospective members. Just $85/per person includes green fees, cart, driving range, box lunch and refreshments. You will soon be able to register for this tournament via the Cypress Ridge web site. We’ll provide that link in upcoming Wednesday newsletters.
 
If you have a raffle prize you’d like to donate, email gary@garylucas.org. Hole sponsorships are available at just $100. If you recruit a hole sponsor, that $100 can be made in your name to the Foundation. This is an easy way to work toward the Paul Harris designation.
 
See you on the golf course!
