NOTICE - Venue for this week's meeting is the Mandana Inn at 6:30 p.m. The dinner is $18 per person. It is their "popular scrod dinner" with salad, rice, vegetable, and dessert.
BASEBALL FIELD PROJECT - Several Rotarians "pitched" in with the town's youth and parents to put finishing touches on the Austin Park baseball fields last Saturday. Prez. Cheryl was "spotted" painting the backstop. Our club made a major contribution, through a District Matching Grant, to supply much of the materials and equipment (bases, etc.) to make this project a success. Our thanks go out to Jim McQuiggan for organizing our members with such short notice. ROTARIANS AT WORK IN THEIR COMMUNITY!
AND THERE GOES ANOTHER TRUCK LOAD - CNY BFTW shipped another semi-truck load of 26 pallets of books to our Texas CNY warehouse on the first leg of their journey to the children of the world. There are another 15 pallets in our Bossong's warehouse that will ship once we glean another 11 pallets of books. Keep them coming! Bookleggers of CNY BFTW, stand tall for your six years continued accomplishments. ... by Ward
