PRESIDENT JUDY
 
 
 
 
 
 
Happy fall!  The last few days, it has felt more like summer than fall but no complaints from this quarter as I don’t look forward to the cold and ice in winter. 
 
Remember, we will be hosting the Omaha Morning Rotary Club this week.  We have ordered extra breakfasts from HyVee.  Let’s let our guests fill up their plates first. 
 
This week, I found an article on-line about a Rotarian from Mexico who had a dream to clean up the Ameca and Lerma Rivers that flow near his childhood home.  The first cleanup in 2014 was so successful that the project has expanded to become Cleaning the Rivers of the World.  You can read the full article here:  https://www.rotary.org/en/rotarian-helps-clean-rivers-around-world
 
See everyone Thursday!
