 Rotary Club of Ann Arbor North, was mentioned twice in this months Packard Partner News. Letter from the Executive Director This Community Projects like the Healthy Kids Fair never cease to amaze me with their countless moving parts and dozens, let me say, DOZENS of details. The choreography of the Healthy Kids Fair is awesome. Even beyond awesome is the community support of this event. We all want Washtenaw County to be a place where all kids can thrive. The Rotary Club of Ann Arbor donated seed money to set the event in motion and keep us going. The Rotary Club of Ann Arbor North gave us funds so bike helmets are free. Many other organizations and individuals have donated to the cause. On fair day the Washtenaw Department of Health will be giving immunizations and dental checks, and Safe Kids Huron Valley will be fitting helmets. Fresh Thyme Market is bringing fresh fruit and Growing Hope is coming with their blender bike which I'm eager to see in action! The Washtenaw Interfaith Coalition for Immigrant Rights will be on hand to answer Right to Know questions. The Healthy Kids Committee has been in planning mode for months and a full corps of volunteers will be on hand the day of the event. Key Packard Health staff have been instrumental in organizing clinical services. I hardly know where to begin with my thanks. There are so many supporters! But I do know where to end ... This community knows how to come together, how to work together on important issues, and for that my appreciation is boundless. In good health, Ray Rion, MD.
