The Ribfest Committee is still looking for volunteers to to help with planning and execution of Ribfest 2021. If you haven't had an opportunity to volunteer/engage this Rotary year here is your chance. This event is a full club commitment. Please contact Kaela, Nick or Shari Mead sharimead@outlook.com
 
Volunteers are needed for the "Ready Set Drive" initiative to assist young people (14-17) to acquire their "Learners driving permit." This program is in cooperation with Big Brothers and Big Sisters. It will require 2 hours X 4 weeks and you will need your Vulnerable Sector Clearance.  Contact Allan
 
Congrats and thank you to Todd Brown and Thomas Guo who have offered to join the 2021-22 board to fill open positions.

Mental health is an ongoing concern during the Pandemic. It was a focus of the District Conference. 
Each participant at the District Conference (300+/-) was asked to provide one word that represented Rotary to them. The feedback was converted to this graphic with the most popular represented by the larger and bolder graphic.
