President Bob gave the membership some updates and information regarding Club activities:
Thanks to Dan for facilitating last week's meeting.
Thanks to the Scholarship Committee for updating and sending out the updated Rotary Scholarship application to area high schools. It is also available for download on our Club's website under Home Page Download Files.
We are looking for spellers to field a Rotary team for the TASC Spelling Bee on April 27 at 5:30 at Taunton High School. Let Bob or Zulmira know if you are interested.
A reminder that Fall River Club's 100th Anniversary Gala is April 9 for anyone interested in attending.
The District Conference is also coming up. It will be at the Sea Crest in Falmouth and DG Roberts has been and will be sending information and registration details via email.
Will shared an Interact Update that the club is working on a Coins for Cambodia initiative. A quick vote was taken to approve funding the prize the Club needs to entice students at the high school to donate.
Joe Mitchell shared a Foundation Minute about the work of the Rotary Disaster Relief Fund in Ukraine.
Save the Date for Family Fun Day! June 11 (rain date June 12), 11 a.m.-3 p.m. at Camp Riverside.
At our most recent meeting...
We welcomed Rev. Peter Michael Preble to our most recent meeting. He shared insights for stress relief and stress management and also about his role with the Brockton VNA hospice volunteer department.
And we had a winner! Bob pulled the Ace of Hearts and won 1/2 of $119!
Happy/Sad Bucks
Joe M. had a buck for his recent quick visit to see granddaughters in Anchorage.
Julie had five bucks for her upcoming Earth Day event at her church on April 9, and for the chance to promote it and Family Fun Day on John McCaul's cable access show.
Will had a thank you buck for the vote to support the Interact and a happy buck that his oldest daughter started her first part time job at Hannaford's. He also had a buck for a recent connection with Plymouth Rotary's Sunrise Club which may lead to developing pollinator gardens with local Interact Clubs.
