Today’s meeting was a work meeting. Club Members served both breakfast AND lunch at “The Rock at Noonday” facility. All hands manned the line and had a wonderful time. I just hope we don’t have chicken for dinner!
January is “Rotary Awareness Month”
Club, District & R.I. News and Business:
David and President Gail have met with The Rock at Noonday reps and they will provide a home for our pancake breakfast fundraiser. As specifics are worked out, we’ll all find out how this’ll happen. The planning committee consists of: Gail, David, Mary B, Patrick, Marion & Mollie. Karen will bug Kathy Fuller, to place a notice in the District 5520 calendar.
Members have approved a HeartStart CPR instructional class by Amanda Gabaldon. $10 per member at our 6 Feb. meeting.
Don’t forget the yearly dinner that we provide and serve at Casa Esperanza on 21 Feb. 10 members are signed up. President Gail will set the menu details.
There’ll be a day set up in February, to work with Silver Horizons @ a food bank. This helps to fulfill our Club’s Community Grant obligation.
We’ll soon arrange a combined meeting with Kelly Hayes and our Manzano H.S. Interact Club.
