Dining with Rotary Chefs is set for Sunday, January 31st at Wedgewood Country Club from 5:30 - 7:30 PM. Let's have a strong showing to not only support a District and Foundation Event, but also our own member Gayle Henefer, who will be a participating chef. Please keep notice of upcoming programs planned for the upcoming weeks, such as the Interact Club Officers and Counselor Maria Lario scheduled for February 16th. At the request of the District, our club is in the planning stages of holding a yard sale at Rotary Park, Saturday, April 24th. This date is chosen as a district wide event for all clubs to focus on a fundraising event for the Polio Plus Campaign. I would like to thank Gayle Henefer, Nancy Cresse and Justin Altman for agreeing to serve on the committee. More information and requests for assistance for the event will be coming. Let's keep our focus on adding new members.
