Board Meeting Notes
I am looking for a few Rotary volunteers to work with me in assisting the City in maintaining the greenspaces or flowerbeds around the city this summer. If we have 3 or 4 volunteers we could manage the area by the Business Park Sign. Or, we can take on some smaller green spaces or, flower pots.
Please send me an e-mail if you wish to work with me on this volunteer project! We'll make sure this project is not too time consuming. Ginny Jesse, Community Service
