We look forward to hearing from Bob Paulbeck today regarding some health-related topics.
Several Rotarians attended Victory Day on Saturday, including Tom Dickman, who refereed, and Laurie Dixon, who cheered on her son, Noah Stanley! The rain cleared up and it turned out to be a nice day on the THS football field. Each participant was able to score a touchdown or cheer with the cheerleaders. Great job to Coach Segedi and his team for hosting such a nice event! Thanks to all Rotarians who came down to cheer them on!
Following Victory Day was the club fellowship trip to the Cherry Creek Winery. The weather was cool but the bus trip was enjoyable with some jokes told by Wes and some fun games of Michigan and Rotary trivia! Many wines were sampled and a few took select flavors home with them. We had a nice dinner at the Grand River Brewery in Jackson. Both businesses are owned by Trenton graduate, and classmate of Kyle Stack and Joe Hoshaw, John Burtka. He was a very gracious host! Thanks to Wes for organizing this trip!
Please plan to attend the Taste of Trenton this coming Sunday. If you haven't already signed up to help pour, please ask Jean if she has any openings left in her schedule. Thanks!
Have a good week!
