JULY 25 EMMAUS 250 CELEBRATION Stop by the beer truck and say hello to the Rotary volunteers
KICKING OFF OUR NEW ROTARY YEAR
Thursday, July 9 was Valerie's first meeting as club president. We had a whopping 50 people in attendance as community members, guests and potential members joined us. Val worked hard to make it a meaningful event. The word on the street is that the meeting was a great way to start of the year, with energy, new faces and fellowship.

Our upcoming fellowship event, Friday July 24, is a simple time to gather. Reservations are not needed as the venue doesn't require them and we want to encourage people to show up last minute, buy a glass of wine and just enjoy the evening. Note that the kickoff of Emmaus' 250 celebration starts that evening at 5:00 at the library (the gateway) so you can check that out before heading over the hill to Stone Farm Cellars (not far away)!
