If we have the Interact club help, then he needs us between 10am to 5pm. If you stay for dinner, all Rotarians pay $75 for dinner. Dinner begins at 5:30pm.

·         This is the 50^th golf outing and the 40^th time they have given money to the camp.

·         Muriel got a call from someone who cannot eat the food from the food pantry because it has gluten in it. She needs some financial assistance for this person. Barbara suggested that we use the money we never used last year for the boy’s confirmation we set aside funds for. This amount is $55 and Garry gave $100 in cash. Thank you very much to Garry.

·         There is going to be a district fundraiser at a ducks game on Tuesday, September 1st $15 for the event-$9 for the tickets, $6 for polio plus. Muriel will be committing to our club buying 27 tickets. We need Bob’s ok to move to that meeting to Tuesday evening. The game begins at 7pm.
