We are excited to announce that our district will be presenting One Rotary Summits on September 13 and September 18 this Rotary year. These summits emphasize the relationship among Membership, Public Image, and Humanitarian Service (the latter especially through The Rotary Foundation) and are a unique and effective way to help club members understand and become truly engaged in the opportunities offered by Rotary.

Thank you to Rotary District 5960 for awarding this grant of $6,500 that will go toward a project to install toilets at a school in Ghana, Africa. This is an important work that will keep kids healthier and in school. Thank you to Rotarians Bev Driscoll, Shannon Enright, and Scott Mercer for doing the work to make this happen. And thank you to Margie Horning from Stillwater Sunrise Rotary Club for presenting the check on behalf of the district.
The weather was beautiful for the Relay for Life last weekend! Many Rotarians were involved in this community event as sponsors, organizers, volunteers, team members, and donors. Thank you! The Stillwater Relay has been a top fundraiser of all Relays, and this year’s tally at the closing ceremony was over $172,000! If you would like to help us reach the $200,000 goal, use the link below to make a donation to the American Cancer Society. Katie Rolf will also continue to sell raffle tickets ($5 each for a chance at cash prizes donated by DJ Raduenz and Lois Raboin) for the drawing on July 27th. Finally, if you missed out this year, mark your calendar for June 21-22, 2019, which will be the 25th annual Stillwater Relay for Life. Together let’s kick cancer!
We enjoyed a light lunch last week, and Bev Driscoll gave us an update on our Fast For Hope work in Nicaragua. Thanks to everyone who contributed!

Our club's website has a new look! We made some slight changes to the website so that we are in line with Rotary's visual identity guidelines. The changes allow for our website to be truly mobile compatible for visitors to navigate on their phones and tablets. Please have patience as we continue working with and editing the new format.
