ESRAG Initiative for Discussion
Judith Black is an official member of
the Environmental Sustainability Rotary Action Group (ESRAG).
She is working on a proposal for all of us to consider
in line with ESRAG's initiative to "Retire Your Lawn: Plant Hope."
As Judith will be at a conference this Tuesday,
we are hoping she can Zoom in to share her idea.
We'll have copies of the proposal for you in time for Judith's presentation.
The proposal can be submitted for a $1,000 prize by the January 15 deadline.
Whether or not we make the deadline,
this is an initiative ESRAG is encouraging and merits our attention.

on Friday, December 19...very exciting!
Thank you to Judith, Linda and Francie for their work.
When weather allows, the benches and the trees will be properly set-up.
Thank you to club member Lenny Cameron

Thank you to everyone who participated in
Cookin' in the Lifebridge Kitchen with Judith Black
on Christmas Morning and New Year's Day
Judith will be at a retreat on Tuesday,
and sends this poem of thanks...
To the might team from New Years
We all must give some thanks
Their strong backs and stalwart hearts
made a meal that did rank.
Trish and her bride, sweet Nancy
Worked their fingers to the bone
And not once did we hear
A complaint or a groan.
Joan, she of heart
whose kindness shines
Cut all the hams
In slices fine
Linda Doliber, the one and only
arrived early and left late
A healing heart, and yet
she did not hesitate
Sheila came to lend a hand
And sweet Scott too
Couldn’t have more willing folk
On your cooking crew
But, my heart did soar with loving joy
I can testify
When given any major task
Our Navy man said ‘Ay Ay’
Thank-you all. It was a good night and a grand meal.
