Dear Rotarians and Friends,
 
It’s the first day of August and it’s a picture perfect day.  What a great way to move into the month of August.  August is one of those transition months as vacations end and the kids begin returning to school.  It will be a transition for our Club as well when we welcome our newest Foreign Exchange student, Maria Helena Drummond from Brazil.  For Patty Boesken and Bill Minnich, August is their birthday month, so let’s all wish them many happy returns. 
 
The month of August will get off to a fast start with our August 2nd morning meeting and “Shoe Box” assembly at St. Luke’s Church that same evening at 5:30PM.  The “Shoe Box” project is a fun event when we package up the goods for the shoe box distribution to the “Children of The Dump”.  As always, food and beverages will be provided.  August 9th at 6:00PM we gather at Ken & Kathy Haber’s home for an evening social event, our Jewelry Raffle and our 50/50 Raffle.  Note we will not have a morning meeting on the 9th, so you are encouraged to attend the evening’s party.  Appetizers and beverages are provided.  Please RSVP to the Haber’s on Wednesday.  August 28th is our annual Golf Outing which we share with the Noon Club and the Chamber of Commerce.  This event is always well attended and a don’t miss it if you’re a golfer.  Chat with Gordy Geiger for details.
 
I hope to see you this Wednesday at our morning meeting and later that evening, so we can all continue working at “Making A Difference”.
