Hello Rotarians!

Hello West Seattle Rotarians!

Here are some important things you need to know...

Parade Volunteers Needed!

This Tuesday we will have sign-up sheets for Parade Volunteers. We need YOU! and your friends, family, neighbors... so don't even think about ducking this luncheon! We will find you! :)

July 20th is the date! Please be thinking about what you'd like to do. If you are manning a traffic station, you can also walk in the Parade and help carry our sponsor banners! If you like to have thousands of people cheeriong for you - this is your chance!

Also, I would love to have the Rotary tent up at the Concert at Hiawatha again this year, where the Rummel award will be presented. Can you be there, too? July 16th... It's lots of fun - great music - great people - great way to spend an evening!

Mariners End Polio Night

July 3rd! First pitch at 7:30pm! A portion of the proceeds will go to Rotary Polio Plus... and there's fireworks! Kind of a big deal ... Here's where you can get more info and tickets...

Here's the Link Again About Grants... Please take a moment to ponder...

www.5030grants.com where you will find forms, requirements, memoranda, etc etc etc... basically everything you need to know to start formulating some ideas. Some BIG ideas! The submission date for 2019/2020 grants hasn't been updated on the district site yet, but we can safely extrapolate that it will be somewhere similar to last year... middle of September 2019. What does the Rotary Club of West Seattle want to do here and beyond here? Remember, we aren't just for lunch... let's

Looking forward to seeing you all on Tuesday... it's my LAST DAY on the mic for a regular meeting... better bring EXTRA Happy Bucks! ... and thanks for all you do in our West Seattle Community!

District Assembly

Another reminder to sign up for the June 22nd District Assembly! Here is a recap of what you can expect... even if you are a long-time Rotarian... this is a great way to get plugged in to what is happening NOW with our District! Please consider going - it's quick, easy and painless!

The District Assembly is June 22, 2019 at Shoreline Community College.

It starts at 8:15 AM and will last until 12:45 PM

There will be 18 various breakouts to select from including:

Public Image

The purpose of the District Assembly is to prepare incoming club leaders for their year in office and to build their leadership team. It also gives the incoming District Governor, and the incoming Assistant Governors and District Team to share their vision for their upcoming Rotary year and to build strong leadership teams and develop working relationships.

It is essential that each club send its relevant committee chairs and officers to the Assembly. If that is not possible, please ensure that someone attends in their place. The following committee chairs and officers for 2019-2020 should attend from you club along with members that want to learn more:

President

I look forward in seeing at the Assembly!
