Dear Friends and Fellow Rotarians,

THE LEGACY COMMITTEE

 Legacy Committee has done an excellent job selecting the finalists who presented to our club on April 3^rd; and the club voted to partner with The LOFT for the 2013/2014 year.  It is exciting to know we will have the opportunity to lend our physical and financial support to The Loft in order to help them accomplish some of their goals for those they serve.

MEMBERSHIP

We have had a plethora of new members join our club these past few months.  I’d like to send out a warm welcome to Brandon, Amanda, Jeremy, Dan, Susan, Meagan, Linda and Ernst.  My advice to new members is don’t be afraid to ask questions, and jump in whenever possible.  My request to our “old timers” is please seek the new members out and join them for lunch.

DISTRICT CONFERENCE

Mark your calendars:  May 4^th and 5^th.  Learn more about it at the District 5110 website.  Remember, Central Oregon is hosting the following year, so if you haven’t been to one yet, this is your chance.  It is a great opportunity to learn a bit more about Rotary, and to meet fellow Rotarians.
