The Rotary District 7430 Conference held in downtown Allentown at the Renaissance Hotel on May 3, 4, and 5th delivered!
And our own District Governor and Emmaus Rotarian Cindy Hornaman has been trying hard to say "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."
She has recognized all of us with shout outs and gifts.... Sue Straeter and her red notebook, Eric Loch who was omnipresent and had Hornaman's six.....Steve Gould PE and MC.....Ceil Birdsell and Eileen Prokop at the registration table where the Don Blose sponsored bags were given out .... and ... wait for it... Jim Ritter and a host of Emmaus Rotarians who donned yellow vests and acted as guides, porters, counselors!, and so, so much more... so much more that Cindy wrote:
Everywhere I went over the weekend, people were stopping me commenting on our Yellow Vested Rotarians who were helping everyone.....
Well, now the truth is out... Emmaus Rotarians enjoyed themselves as they served at the District Conference. Here are three of our own at Happy Hour!
