REMINDER ON NEW MEMBERSHIP TYPES
Juat a reminder that last fall our Board approved two new membership types to our offerings. Our standard full membership continues to be $375 every six months. We've added a "Young Professionals" category for members 18-40 at a reduced rate of $220. There's also a new Corporate rate of $439 which allows a company to have TWO members.

LET'S FRAME A HABITAT HOUSE
Habitat for Humanity 2026 logoOn 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.
 
GOLFERS NEEDED!
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/

MISCELLANY AND MINUTIA
We said "goodbye" to Jade as she completed her year as our Rotary Youth Exchange student. She certainly made the most of her experience. A few comments: Americans are good at small talk; everything is so big; school sports is different; and easier; had never seen a drive through bank or pharmacy........Fries are Belgian, not French......Jade's mom was our guest last week........We have our two RYLA kids!......Congrats to Roger who was awarded his Rotary "Benefactor" designation.....Rogers grandson won the hurdles at the state meet......we had 18 volunteers on that McMillan project..... NAMI Walk was last week......
