President's Message
Dawn Knowles
Fellow Rotarians and Friends,
Thank you everyone who helped deliver Poinsettias. They definitely spread holiday cheer. I delivered a couple cases to the Justice Center and they were so grateful! We took a fun picture and it will be on the slides at this week’s meeting. Friends of Fieldworkers will be our program this Thursday to talk about their wonderful program. Hope to see you there.
In service,
Dawn Knowles
