Rose Crispin, Club and Community Service Coordinator, provided a recap of our first Food Drive.  She reported that we collected 2,675 lbs. of food.  A big thank you to our Rotarians who volunteered their time soliciting donations.  And “Thanks” to King Soopers for allowing us to present this fundraiser two weekends in a row. We also collected about $500. in cash donations.

Rotary Non-Profit Day-Out will be held on Tuesday, October 21st.  Instead of meeting at the church on October 21st, sign up for the non-profit business of your choice, go to that location at noon, and enjoy a complimentary lunch, followed by a presentation about this local business. Please plan to arrive at noon and expect the event to end no later than 1:30.  

There will be a hard-copy sign-up form at our Tuesday club meetings or you can sign up from this LINK .  Questions about Rotary Day Out can be directed to Anne Reynolds Smith.    Have fun and enjoy your "Rotary Day Out!".  OUR center, Brite Collaborative,   Recovery café, and Longmont Humane Society
