Ron Rasmussen, Foundation Vice-President, presents Matt Ironside as a Paul Harris +3 recipient.  Matt joined our club in October 2009, and has been actively involved on the Boards and as an officer since then.  He was our Club President in the challenging year of 20-21, and guided us into Room & Zoom and moved our meeting place to here at Bullseye Golf Club.  Matt still has given of his time on our Foundation Board, was co-chair of the Fund Drive and the Raffle ticket fund raising for the last 5 years, and readily steps up to fill a need when asked.  His commitment to Rotary and his leadership in our Club is very much appreciated.

Our Foundation Calendar Raffle begins in July.  Tickets were distributed at our May 5th meeting.  We aim to raise $5000, meaning 500 tickets will be sold.  We ask all Rotarians to sell nine tickets.  To meet our goal, we would need around 12 tickets per Rotarian.  Thank you for being so supportive of our Foundation!  Please return tickets to our June 23rd meeting!
