Good morning everyone.
 
I want to thank the following members who joined me last Tuesday evening, May 16th and volunteered at the Rocky River Assistance Program Food Bank to sort and pack food for needy families in our community…Larry Faulhaber, Marty and Jim Harris, Jim Rowe, Bill Gaydos, Carol Barrett, Linda Tallitsch, Jean Vahue and Costas Mavromichalis.  Afterwards, a number of us gathered at a local restaurant for food and beverages.  It was a fun and enjoyable evening.  
 
Also, I want to thank Carol Barrett for chairing the vocation service project this year and representing the Club, along with myself, at the annual West Shore Career- Technical District Student Recognition and Career Passport Assembly held at Lakewood High School this past Thursday.  The Club sponsored the Work Ethic Award Winners and presented a gift card to each of the fourteen recipients.
