Dear $NICK_NAME$ $LAST_NAME$,
 
Dear Fellow Rotarians,
It was wonderful to see everyone in person again after a month. This club truly brings joy and happiness! It’s always heartwarming to see everyone smiling and ready to serve.
A big congratulations to our newest Blue Badge members, Wayne and Yasaman! We deeply appreciate your contributions so far, and we’re proud to have you as official members. A special thanks to the mentors and sponsors for guiding them along the way.
We have plenty of excitement on the horizon. Our golf tournament is set for April 21, and you’ll hear from impact speakers from Easter Seals, our target charity for this year’s tournament proceeds.
Additionally, we're launching our companion club on April 10 at The ION, located at 4201 Main Street, from 5:30-6:30PM. Thank you to everyone in our club who made this possible.
I’m also looking forward to this week’s speaker, Ellie Herder, who will provide a “brief” overview of the “Undies for Everyone” program. Remember, I always take an extra pair of underwear when I go golfing—just in case I get a hole in one!
See you at Pico's bright and early on Thursday!
Kim
