I hope all of you are planning to attend our annual joint dinner meeting with the Emmaus High School Interact Club.  The meeting replaces our normal weekly breakfast meeting and will begin on Thursday February 1st at 5.30pm in the EHS Cafeteria.

In the first part of the meeting, we will hear from the EHS Interact officers about their activities.  We will also the terrific opportunities offered through our youth programs including Camp Neidig, the Four Way Test Speech Contest and our club-sponsored Scholarship Program.  All of this will be taking place as we enjoy a pizza supper courtesy of Mike Lahanas. 

During the second part of the meeting, the students will be painting and decorating seven Little Libraries which will be installed later this year at each of the elementary schools in the East Penn School district. The above photo is an example of a Little Library project between a Rotary Club and an Interact Club in Vincennes, Indiana.  Our Little Libraries project is a joint service project of our two clubs inspired by Youth Committee Chair Dr. Anthony Moyer and Interact Faculty Advisor Samantha McFarland. If you are interested in participating with the students as they paint and decorate, please bring a smock to protect your clothes.

See you on Thursday!

Yours in Rotary,

Burt
