County Fair, Relay, Jeff Dicks, & Karl King

Kids Against Hunger - May 27, 2-4pm @ Riverside Casino

Don't forget about the Kids Against Hunger meal packing event on Wednesday, May 27th at the Riverside Casino Events Center from 2-4pm. The financial commitment is $1,500 from the casino and $500 from the Washington, Wellman & Kalona Rotary Clubs, for a total of $3,000.  This will allow us to package 12,000 meals!

What's going on?

Ed Rustioni updates the club on Relay For Life on June 13

Congratulations to Susan Wellington for receiving a Rotary Presidential Citation award from PDG Don Patterson. The Citation recognizes that Club President Wellington led the club through on-target activities and worked toward the Rotary mission.

Washington School's On-Deck Superintendent, Jeff Dicks, told the club a little bit about himself. He starts in June after Rotarian, Dr. Mike Jorgensen moves to "Senior Active."

John Moenck talked about Rotarians working the ticket gates at the Washington County Fair.

Last week, Dick Colby had a Music Appreciation class, focusing on Karl King. Take another listen to "Barnum & Bailey's Favorite"!
