Announcement: Save the date Sept. 27 for the Chamber of Commerce celebration of its 75th anniversary. An evening cruise on the Lady Katherine is planned.

Program: Sandy Taylor
    Sandy, as we all know, has been the driving force behind our golf tournament for many years. This will be Sandy's last year and in anticipation, laid out all the jobs and functions necessary to pull off this event. The golf tournament, May 22, is our biggest fundraiser so its important the club come together and bring the golfers, and sponsors in for a successful event. Teams have been eliminated to simplify things - we are now one big team!
    All tee box, green and corporate sponsors must be in by May 18 to allow time to organize the signage and make new ones if necessary. The procedures will be the same as well as the venue - Portland Country Club and catering by Farrells. So lets think golf and start moving by planting the seeds for golfers and sponsors now. A suggestion by Brent is to give out a Rotary brochure with every application so that people know where the money goes.
