President Dick wants to remind us that November's theme is Giving Thanks To All Those Who Keep Us Safe! Be sure to attend on November 17th when the PAL K-9 Therapy Unit will share its important role in the community.
It's EREY Time! Say What?
We're in the midst of Every Rotarian Every Year (EREY) and are hoping for 100% Club participation. The suggested donation is $250, but please give at whatever level works for your budget. EREY supports the International Service efforts of the Rotary Foundation and eventually comes back to our Club as District Designated Funds (DDF) which we can then use for service projects.
It's easy to give by one easy step:

At the November 10th meeting the Climate Change Committee (C)3 reported on 118 Rotary Reefs for 118 Years of Rotary, a project to help restore coral reefs by planting harvested coral seeds on 6' diameter steel Rotary Wheels located off Bocos del Toro in Panama. View the video below for a fascinating look at Rotary's work currently underway to help coral survive the assault of pollution and climate change.
