No meeting this week - instead, we have our monthly service project. On Tuesday we'll be staining some fencing at the LEAP housing project at 9819 W. Shields Ave. Be there at 12:00 sharp! Wear your painting clothes!
Good work, Rotarians! đ Lobsterfest 2021 is now history. The 18 items we collectively donated will net us $2308! And that does not include our share of ticket sales, or of the others things we all may have bid on and won--because Iâm sure you were out there shopping, too. Weâll get a complete reconciliation in a few weeks. Until then, accept my thanks for a job well done.

The country is growing and changing, and people are rising to the challenge to create better, healthier lives. Below are the top facts you should know about the Uganda water and sanitation crisis today and how you can help put it to an end.
