See you at the 602 Brewing Company again this Tuesday, Nov. 10.

Our speaker will be Donna Nichols, ED of the Bastrop County Public Health Department.

 

Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) co-director Eli Alborn, Pflugerville Rotarian, gave the Club a good overview of this summer’s RYLA goals and needs. Scheduled for June 27 – July 2, 2027, in Cedar Park, the camp provides leadership skills training for young people about to become seniors in high school.  Check the District 5870 website for areas we can step up to support the program.

STUFF YOU NEED TO KNOW

  • Rotarian Rick St. Cin has three big containers of exterior Christmas lights, cords, timers, etc. that he is giving away. He says of hanging lights, “I’m not going to do that any longer!” If you have an interest, or know of an organization who could use some free decorations, contact Rick: (512) 304-8023 or rickstcin@me.com.
  • IF YOU CANNOT GO TO AUSTRIA WITH ROTARIAN BILL & THE HONOR CHOIR, PLEASE CONSIDER A DONATION TO SUPPORT THE TRAVEL COSTS OF ONE OF THE SINGERS!
  • We have obtained 30 more bed kits to schedule for delivery & set up in the near future.
  • The very few remaining Golf Tournament t-shirts are on sale for $10. See Treasurer, Wick Baker.
  • REMINDER: The Club is collecting new & gently used books for its “book gifting” program. These will honor our speakers as a donation to a library. If you have a suitable book(s), please bring them to a meeting.
