Hi all,
We have a great meeting planned for Sunday as a fellow Madison Rotarian will be joining us to share an opportunity to get involved in a project in Guatemala– check out the details below and don’t forget that we will be meeting at The Rigby, 119 E Main St, rather than our typical space at Brocach. In honor of St. Patty’s Day, come sporting your favorite green attire!
YP Week is quickly approaching and will run from April 19 – April 27. This is a week-longplatform for individuals to engage in our community through
discovery, adventure, and meaningful conversations. Check out the entire YP Week schedule
here.
In addition to the many events our club is hosting in the coming months, some of our neighboring Rotary clubs also have exciting events planned that I wanted to pass along. At the bottom of this newsletter I’ve included the flyers for the St. Patrick’s Day Cash Raffle, Bowling Against Hunger Tournament, and Food and Beer Pairing. All are sure to be great events that I’d encourage you to check out and support our fellow Rotarians!
See you this weekend,
Chelsea Sheedy
2018-2019 President
