Our Rotary Exchange Student Antek's host family has a full house May 27 - June 1 and thought it'd be a great opportunity for Antek to hang out with another American family. Can anyone welcome Antek to their home for these few days? Please contact Jennifer if interested.

**Message form Jane A. Meckes, Nazareth Rotary, District 7430 STEM-YEA Committee
Hi Everyone. Our district committee is busy planning for the upcoming STEMYEA program at Kutztown University. I am on the committee and in charge of gathering materials. I have created two ways that Rotarians in our District can help provide items that are needed. First is an "Amazon Wish List" if you would like to purchase materials that we need. Any items purchased would be sent directly to me. Second is a recycled material list. You can help us out at no cost to you! All you have to do is save the materials on the list and bring them to a meeting or event anytime. I already have a bin started for the items I have been collecting.
Rotary President-elect Mário César Martins de Camargo revealed the 2025-2026 presidential message, Unite for Good on February10, 2025. "Rotary members are #PeopleOfAction. We don't wait for change to happen; we make it happen. And what do people of action do? We unite for good."
