Polio Eradication Fundaiser

A huge thank you to Kathy Kane for chairing our Polio Fundraiser.  She is selling football squares for the Detroit Lions vs Kansas City Chiefs.  Squares are $20.  Prizes are $200 a quarter.  The net will be $1,200 for the polio eradication campaign.  Please consider purchasing a square and helping our cause.  Kathy will be selling them at our Monday meeting.  Only 41 squares left.  We got this!

 

 

We're so close!

President's Corner
We're back at Truago today!
 
Welcome Rotarians!
 
We had another fantastic week, beginning with a tour of Trenton High School. A big thank-you to Superintendent Doug Mentzer for hosting us. The school is truly state-of-the-art, and we were especially impressed by the auto shop, media arts program, horticulture spaces, school store, fitness center, and swimming facilities. What an incredible resource for students—thank you again, Doug, for sharing it with us. We’re excited to plan more field trips like this in the future!
 
Looking ahead, we’ve been invited by the Trenton Rowing Booster Club to the Wyandotte Boat Club on October 8th at 5:30 PM for the dedication of their newly sponsored rowboats and a tour of the club. It’s a wonderful opportunity to see community support in action.
 
See you all at our regular meeting at noon!
 
Yours in Rotary,
Ronnie
