President’s Message
Rotarians,
 
 
Field Trip!!!!!
 
This week we are at South Salem High School. Lunch will be catered by the award-winning South Salem Culinary Class followed by a performance by the Nationally recognized South Salem HS Choir in the new auditorium. We will be reimbursing the South’s culinary class for lunch, so we are asking everyone to contribute $15 if you attend. Chuck will have a payment device there at the school or you can also contribute online at: https://rotaryclubofsalem.com/give/
 
We will be meeting in the Auditorium Foyer early, at 11:45 am – where we will be served lunch and then we will move into the brand-new auditorium for the choir concert.  We will have our business meeting in the auditorium immediately following the concert.  Parking is very limited so carpool if you can. I have been told we can park on the Howard Street side of the school, where ticketing will be suspended until 3 pm. Please use the entrance nearest to the auditorium.  I hope you all can make it.
 
You know how I really like those pictures of your travels. Here are a couple of pictures Ken Van Osdol sent me during his current trip down under in New Zealand and Australia. The first picture is a beautiful scenic overlook funded by Rotary about an hour west of Sydney.  The second picture is a student from Düsseldorf that Ken ran into while hiking in a volcanic park near Rotorua, New Zealand. Rotary makes the world small. Awesome Ken!!!!
 
Hope you are having a fantastic week.
 
See you Wednesday.
