Other exciting news and events from last week's meeting
We had a new member induction: Ken Moss
We had a few members receive their blue badge: Laura, Pranil, Courtney, and Will. The blue badge signifies a fully integrated and active member. It is awarded after completing a set of tasks that demonstrate commitment to the club and its mission. This badge replaces the initial "red badge" that new members wear during their orientation period.
Then, the Past Presidents' badges for Joe and Chris.
Adopt a Creek
Last Saturday, 9/6, was our Creek Cleanup Project. It was a fantastic day with great weather and an awesome team cleaning up the Pleasant Grove Creek (Between Stanford Ranch Rd and Farrier Rd, next to Twin Oaks Park). The team collected a great deal of trash, tennis balls, and golf balls.
