HAPPY NEW YEAR!
THIS WEEK - NATIONAL PARKS
We'll start off the new year with one of our own. John and Linda Biggs have achieved a milestone - last year they completed their quest to visit all 50 National Parks in the "Lower 48". Some of these parks they have dubbed "Obscure". They're hard to get to and some make one wonder why they're a Park at all. Learn about National Parks and join John and Linda on a quick tour of some parks you'll probably never get to.
DUES ARE DUE
Jan-June 2020 dues billings have been circulated via email and are now due.  If you need a new statement, please email John Schubin, jschubin@baysidecap.com for another copy.  Payments can be made for the half-year ($375), full year ($750), and you may include a $50 donation for the Rotary Foundation, which will be forwarded to the Rotary Foundation on your behalf.  Contributions to the Rotary Foundation will help maintain our Every Rotarian Every Year (EREY) club status and used to support the Foundation’s grants for work around the world.  Payment may be made via Venmo (using @Boise-Metro) or with a check mailed to Boise Metro Rotary, POB 232, Boise, ID 83701
GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER
We have three dinner groups for our event on January 11th. Hosts will be notified on January 7th, guests will get their assignments on January 9th. Don't be like Jeff last year and try to bribe me into disclosing the guest list in advance!
