Ukraine - We now have our fourth and fifth families arriving and Todd Brown/Brenda Eaglesham require more volunteers.....now. Two Rotary volunteers are aligned with each family to learn more about the familys specific needs and provide support. This is a very direct and fulfilling volunteer opportunity. Contact Todd 38toddbrown@gmail.com in Benda's absence.
 
Dues are due by July 1: Watch for your notice in the next few days and make your commitment to the next Rotary year right away!
