    Hanski Report

    Hanski has only one XL Rotary vest left in stock.  She has been living at the Holland's home for three weeks now, and doing a LOT of homework.  The Social book in particular is hard to translate, as it has a "lot of fancy words."  Thanks to Barry Orich family for a great weekend, Helen Henderson for a great sauna and supper and Elisabeth Nelson and family for an entertaining visit.  Hanski also took a road-trip to Calgary with her Dance class.

     

    History Project

    Rotarian Judy Head talked of the upcoming history book of District 5360 as a part of Rotary Centennial projects.  The committee requires your input.  Click on any of the questions to send an E-mail response.
