Its not too late to sign up!  Plans for our family bike ride on Sunday, June 6th are firmed up. We'll meet at 1:45 at the new Rotary Wetlands Peace Preserve by the river at the Willow Lane Softball Complex. Before we start our ride we'll take a walk on the RWPP trail. Its about .6 mile and will take about 20 minutes. Then we'll take off and head east, going around Veteran's Pond, then on the Esther Simplot and White Water Park. We'll stop to check out the new Pollinator Garden at the new park on Quinn's Pond, then cross over at Americana, visit Rotary Park on the Greenbelt, then go all the way down to Plantation Bridge where we'll cross the river and return to RWPP for refreshments. Total distance is about 9.5 miles and will take us about 1.5 hours. Kids and friends are welcome! PLEASE SIGN UP HERE If you just want the snacks, show up at 4:00!

Remember how much fun we had with Lobster Fest last year? And remember how much money we raised for our projects? Well, Lobster Fest is back for 2021!! Mark your calendar for September 3-12. Our club has committed to participate by providing auction items like we did last year. Be thinking of unique things to offer! Cornelia will head up the effort, once again. (Last year we netted about $4300)

Update! Our club has virtually travelled over 14,000 miles to attend Rotary meetings in 6 other districts! If you’ve visited another club recently, please be sure to tell Cornelia so we can get credit for it. And remember that you can also bring guests to our club for points. Have you invited anyone to Rotary recently?
