Donna Street President, Rotary Club of Prince George County 2009-2010
To My Rotarian Friends and Friends of Rotary:
We are almost out of the woods as far as winter weather dilemmas. I know I'll have a happy dollar when I see the first daffodil appear this year.
Our Spring event calendar is starting to heat up so shake off the winter "blahs" and get ready to put on those Rotary work shirts. First up will be a fundraising endeavor for the animal shelter. This project was basically handed to us on the proverbial silver platter with most of the work (sponsors, prizes, printing of tickets) already accomplished. We do need to perform our part as sponsors by selling raffle tickets and showing up at scheduled events to promote the raffle. One date to watch this month is March 27th when we will have a table at the 1st Annual PGHS Car Show. The prize drawing will be April 17 at the Animal Shelter.
Planning is also underway for our annual scholarship fundraiser - the Jerry Taylor picnic, to be held at Scott Park on May 5. We'll have the same good food from Nanny's so let's be confident in inviting lots of friends and acquaintances.
Peg will attend her President-Elect Training session (PETS) on the weekend of March 5-6, so expect to see a changed woman when she gets back. After the shell-shocked expression wears off she'll realize how excited she really is about the opportunity to move the club forward through the next Rotary year. She'll fill out lots of goal-oriented reports (with the help of past officers, of course) and then she'll give us a glimpse of her priorities. She won't worry so much once she realizes how much support is out there from District and our own great club members. I'm excited for her.
March is Literacy month on the Rotary calendar. We've done our part as a club with the dictionaries for third-graders, but maybe you can find a way to personally support libraries and literacy in general this month.
See you Wednesday!
Yours in Rotary,
Donna Street
