Welcome to another issue of our weekly bulletin! This was a busy week as we said farewell to a dedicated Rotarian Bob Edwards. Many of us worked behind the scenes to set up the venue; many of us brought food; and many of us cleaned-up. Many of us spoke about Bob's remarkable influence on the club. Bob's wife Mary was incredibly grateful to Rotary for assisting the family with the memorable day.
And we had a wonderful speaker on Monday, and were updated on important county happenings.
Rotarians came to honor the significant role Bob Edward's played in his 62+ years in Quincy Rotary.
Darren served as M.C. at Bob's celebration of life.
Bob's friends, many fellow Rotarians, shared stories about a man who always wore a smile and believed in serving his community.
Mark your calendars
Don't miss the fun at Darren's Demotion Dinner - Monday evening - at the St. John's Parish Hall!
Our last regular meeting of the year is Monday, June 19. Sierra Blanton-Rader will give a presentation on the Plumas Health Care Foundation and ways the public can support their efforts.

Rotary Invests in the Future
These exceptional young Quincy High School grads received the annual Rotary academic scholarship of $750. Though they are ending their time at QHS, this is just the beginning for these three. Aiden Powers (the Rotary QHS rep) heads to U.C. Davis, Dylan Miller to U.C. Berkeley and Michael Orovetz to Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. We wish them luck and success as they continue their education.

Last Week's Speaker
Tracey Ferguson, Plumas County Planning Director, Monday's speaker, updated us on Plumas County's 2021 Wildfire Long Term RecoveryPlan in partnership with the Dixie Fire Collaborative. The framework addresses housing and commercial buildings, community planning and capacity building, infra-structure, natural and cultural resources, health and social services, and the economy. Though Plumas County is not required to help with this long term Recovery Plan, they are committed to the plan to assure there is a common vision, values, implementation, maintenance, and accountability.
Be added to the Long-Term Recovery Plan email mailing list so you can share information with your neighbors, participate and provide project input and ideas, review and comment on the Long-Term Recovery Plan, and support project implementation.
