 HOORAY!! This week we'll meet in person for the first time in 16 months! Through the end of August, we'll be meeting at Life's Kitchen on Fairview (the old Marie Calendar's). Our board met there on Thursday and got the tour of the whole facility. They are working up to 24 people in their life skills program. The meeting room looks great! Best advice is to park in the back and go through the back door right into the room. We hope to see you there! Second Lieutenant Cheyenne Quilter will be our program speaker on July 13th. Second Lieutenant Quilter is a newly-minted graduate of the West Point Academy and hails from Meridian, Idaho. In addition to her academic success, she has been very active in volunteer service with vulnerable populations both locally and globally. In June this year, Boise Metro Rotary received notice that our Global Grant Scholarship Application for Second Lieutenant Cheyenne Quilter was approved by The Rotary Foundation. The award is in the amount of US$30,000 for her to pursue a Masters of Science program in War and Psychiatry at King’s College in London. She is joining a distinguished group of Rotary scholars striving to make a difference in peacebuilding and conflict prevention, and we look forward to working with her. Boise Metro Rotary Club is serving as her International Sponsor Club. This is a joint effort with the Rotary Club of Edmonton who is serving as the Host Country Sponsor. |
