President's Message
Dawn Knowles
We had a wonder filled presentation last week by animator and illustrator Greg Wray. What a treasure to have a Rotarian. And a reminder that we all have some amazing stories and life experiences.
This Thursday our own Derek Eidson will share the passion and commitment of the Rotaracors for their Vietnam School build. We will also be toasting Jacquelyn with some cupcakes, as she prepares to welcome son Hans into the world. Join us to celebrate!
The St. Patrick’s party at Topa Topa is almost here! Let’s sell LOTS of tickets to raise money for the Walk for Kids, Ronald McDonald Family Room!
Note that Dawn is on vacation for a couple weeks and Kathy and I will be filling in. See you Thursday.
