Rotary Meetings 5/12 & 5/19
Our Rotary meeting scheduled for May 12th will be via Zoom only due to an event taking place at the Community House that day.  Our club will be hosting a refreshment table at that event raising funds for the foundation.  Our meeting that day will take place as usual, but will only be accessible on Zoom.  Log-in details will be sent before the meeting as usual.
 
Our Rotary meeting scheduled for May 19th will take place that evening in the form of the club's Spring Benefit event rather than at lunch time.  Please see the bulletin for details of the event including time and location.
