Jade Massaer, our Rotary Exchange Student from Belgium, is about to end her year with us. She'll join us this week to tell us about her experience. Surprises? Was it what she expected? Favorite food?
She has an ask - there is a competition among the exchange students to see how much "bling" they can attach to their official blazers. If you have extra pins, representing just about anything, please bring them next week so Jade can add them to her blazer. Thanks in advance!

On Saturday, June 13th, hundreds of volunteers, of all sizes, ages and skills, will gather at the Methodist Church on Maple Grove to frame all the sections for a Habitat for Humanity House! Let's have a Boise Metro Team! We meet at 8 AM and start pounding nails - no power tools allowed! By noon, the teams will have completed all the sections and they'll be loaded on a truck and taken to the home site. This event has been going for about 15 years and all the houses ended up somewhere in the Treasure Valley. Scott Swan, the man of many talents, will be our construction advisor. John Biggs is the team leader. He'll take care of registrations. We need a headcount by June 7th.
Our 4th annual Golf Scramble is set for June 15th at Quail Hollow. This is our major fundraiser of the year! We need golfers to register. A foursome costs $500 which includes greens fees, cart, prizes and two lunches. Go to https://boisemetrorotarygolf.org/
Every year, our District sells raffle tickets in conjunction with the District Conference. Every Rotarian is encouraged to participate! Funds are used to finance District projects and a portion comes back to each club for their own projects. The prizes are amazing! Remember, if you are the winner, and you had sold the ticket to yourself, you get double!
