Our Exchange Student Chama all ready to cheer on the Ice Hogs.

 

 

     A great turnout for Rotary Night at the Ice Hogs.

 

THANK-YOU to everyone who attended the Club Assembly meeting last Thursday. A lot of good ideas and insight into our club and its history were brought up.

 

We had a great time at the Ice Hogs game on Friday night and the Ice Hogs won.

 

A big thank you to Kathy, Elise, Russ, Wray, Monica, Mike, Paul, Linda, and Becky for assisting me in cleaning out and reduction of storage bins. Only 6 of 20 left! If you have need of a binder or storage bin, contact me.

 

We have doubled the District Governors goal for our club!!!   Let’s keep it going!!! We have collected $367.00 so far which equals 4404 pounds.
