Weekly Newsletter - May 7

ROTARY CLUB OF YELLOWKNIFE

Greeting All Members! Here’s what we have going on:

Weekly Meeting - is at the Top Knight

Seniors Bingo is run by Rotary Volunteers on Tuesday Nights at 7-8 PM. Our schedule is the months of February, April, June, August, October and December. If you would like to participate, please contact Dale Crouch.

WOW.... The Bike Auction of 2014 is over and as the dust settles on the last few clean up items it looks like we were able to raise approximately $5600.00 in sales with over 50 bikes sold! Way to go team Rotary and our St. Pats Interact partners. This is a great example of the good we can accomplish in our community.

This Weekend – SPRING TRADE SHOW! This year we’re looking for set-up folks for Friday evening and volunteers Saturday and Sunday to sit at our Rotary table and sell lobster tickets. Ryan has/is/will be sending out sign-up sheets shortly. This year we only require folks for our own booth as the First Air Games table has gone to another service club in an effort to ensure this great fund-raising opportunity can benefit other clubs in the North.

May 10 – MOTHERS DAY ! Show the moms in your life how appreciated they are. For anyone who sends me their Mom’s name – I will send out a special edition of this newsletter just to announce their wonderfulness.

May 10 – “Me and Rotary” workshop at the District Office in Edmonton - Learn more about Rotary and build on your leadership skills. Contact Edith Martin orgnav@telusplanet.net, 780-721-8765

Chris Williams needs suggestions for Speakers – either a member of the community, a guest from out of town, or even yourself (for a classification talk or a topic of interest to Rotary)

The Interact Club of Ecole St. Patrick High School meets (most) Wednesdays at noon. All Rotarians are welcome! Call Susan Huvenaars to confirm time and location 873-4888.
