_____________________________________________
YOU DID IT! Attending members were so generous with their Happy Dollars over a period of 4 weeks that
a grand total of $402
was raised for The Maui Emergency Fund,
administered by Rotary District 5000, Hawaii.
We can't be there, but every dollar counts in the long-term recovery of that decimated community.
We'll watch for any notices of possible
Rotary rebuilding grant opportunities
that may come up in the future. After all, they lost library, school, and medical facilities...all within the Areas of Focus of Rotary.

Shortly, Linda and Jessica will be asking some
members to serve on the Nominating Committee
to develop a slate for the 2024-2025 year.
The smooth succession of club officers
from year to year is a vital aspect of making sure the club's programs and service continue
in a healthy way.
What will next year's slate of officers look like?
Will it have your name on it?
"Leadership is an action, not a position."
