Thank You!

Thank you to those who participated in or made a donation to our annual 5k run/walk at Newcastle Place. We had over 50 people attend, and we were able to reach our fundraising goal. It means so much to me knowing that I'm part of a "big family" who comes together to support each other.

The money raised will help millions of families affected by Alzheimer’s disease.

Many thanks,

Jennifer

Reminder – A Request for Paper Goods and Household Cleaning Supplies

Several weeks ago our Club welcomed a guest speaker from Kathy’s House. Kathy’s House is a non-profit Guest House providing lodging and a supportive environment to families who are experiencing one of life’s most stressful situations-personal illness or the serious illness of a loved one. It was founded by a Mequon family.

Our Club has a long history of supporting Kathy’s House and our Community Service Committee is interested in providing support once again. We know that Kathy’s House relies on donations to support its daily operations.

Throughout the month on May we will be collecting paper items (e.g. paper towels, toilet tissue, napkins) and cleaning supplies (e.g. household spray cleaners and wipes, laundry detergent). Items can be donated on Friday mornings or delivered to NewCastle at any time. Julie Irvine (our newest member!) has graciously offered to store the items at NewCastle. They will be delivered to Kathy’s House in early June.

The Community Service Committee is entertaining the idea of hosting a cookout at Kathy’s House this summer for their guests.

Thank you, in advance, for your generosity.

Winners of The 2019 Rotarian Photo Contest

In this year’s photo contest, we received more than 600 entries from 59 countries and geographical areas — from Argentina to Zimbabwe and many places in between.

Through your photographs, we traveled to a glacial lagoon in Iceland and a mountainside in Bolivia. We saw Rotarians working on projects and met the people they encountered along the way. Taken together, the photos you sent us create a composite portrait of our world and the ways Rotarians experience it.

You Are Invited!! 

Ticket Donation :  $25 per person
All Proceeds go towards scholarships for High school youth in Mequon and Milwaukee areas. 
Thank you for  joining us in supporting our youth and their bright futures!
