Big thanks to Brad Brodersen for accepting the position of secretary for the remainder of this year!

 

Sara encouraged us all to continue to promote mental Health by placing signs in your yards/businesses. Heather pointed out that it is vital to ensure that the signs are placed in areas that will continue to support this, and be mindful that the signs are not removed immediately after we place them.  

 

Roxy Orr Dist Gov. presented her message of Increased Impact and Increased Reach.  There is a plan for a District Conference on Friday May 14th, with a family day at Henry Dorly Zoo on Saturday May 15th. I'm sure you'll agree with me that this will be a wonderful day to get together and meet other Rotarians.  It will be open to all Rotarians, including their children and grandchildren!

 

A moving message was given by People's City Mission employee revealing his personal story of how his life was touched by the Mission.  

 

This year instead of the Starry Night gala, People's City Mission will be auctioning/selling trees November 25, 27-29 at the Gateway Mall. Kathy Collingsworth will be decorating a tree (think Grinch), and Sara and Fields Floral will be decorating two trees.  Reach out to them if you would like to help. Even if you're not handy in the decorating field (like me) your talents can surely be utilized in other areas.
