I'm hosting at my house (7721 E Vista Dr) on Monday October 5, 12, and 19 a member small group happy hour. Each "session" will be at 5:30pm and we'll talk about what's going on with our club and district while we enjoy beer, wine, munchies, and each other's company. A sign up sheet will be passed around again on October 1.
Our club will officially kick off this Rotary Year this Thursday September 24 at 5:30pm with a "happy hour" at the McCormick Ranch Golf Club. As usual we'll enjoy "heavy hors d'oeuvres" with a cash bar. Members will pay nothing for the appetizers and member spouses, significant others, and family members will be billed $20.00. POTENTIAL NEW MEMBERS WILL NOT BE CHARGED SO PLEASE INVITE FRIENDS YOU THINK WOULD MAKE GOOD ROTARIANS. We will not meet at 7:00am this Thursday. September 24.
