Hello, BBRC Friends!
It’s a big week ahead for BBRC, with Tuesday’s Covey Cottages groundbreaking, Wednesday morning’s meeting at Golden Valley with our Interact students, then Wednesday evening’s Fireside Chat/Club Social at Pat Thompson’s house (catered by Mauricio’s)! Buckle up, space rangers!
Congrats, Mindy, for winning the “Wear Your Pin” drawing this week!
Based on early indications, our newest pin effort, the 30-Day Challenge, is taking off! (That’s Image Committee Member Mindy’s brain child.) Did anyone (or your children or grandchildren) participate in Flat Stanley activities in school? Students were encouraged to get pictures of their “Flat Stanley” in all kinds of unique places. I wonder where our Rotary SWAG will show up over the next 30 days! (I have some fun ideas in mind, how about you?)
A quick review of our club’s Goals & Objectives for the year reminds me that it’s time for me to send out a survey to club members so our board can hear from YOU and evaluate our Rotary Year so far…and make changes as needed! We’re not quite at the mid-way point yet, but I think of it as “mid-terms” for the school year. When you receive your Survey Monkey email, please do fill it out. Your opinion truly matters!
Finally, as we enter Veterans Day week, I would like to thank all the BBRC members that have served (and in Jerald Wyatt’s case, who continue to serve) our country. We are the “land of the free” because YOU were brave. Thank you. Sandra Parnell is donating a beautiful beer barrel bench to be raffled off to one lucky winner…proceeds will go toward Covey Cottages (tiny homes for homeless vets)! If you didn’t get your tickets this week, stop by Dionysus Brewing this weekend!
Remember: Share Rotary with a Friend!
