It will be a 4-person scramble with a shotgun start and features a major prize for a hole-in-one on any of the par 3's. A complimentary buffet follows for all players, sponsors and helpers. Net proceeds go to the S.Y.V. Rotary Club's Scholarship Fund. This golf tournament is our club's second largest fundraiser. If you've missed any meetings lately, you're missing some good speakers. Our own district governor, Marc Vertin, gave a great testimonial program. I've enjoyed Marc all year, and his attitude towards Rotary. His email address is ILOVEROTARY, imagine that. Kay Kuns was also an excellent speaker on her travels to Cuba, I maybe repeating myself, and Jeff Scobba did an excellent job on describing the CHP challenges; focusing on his personal responsibilities and how current events are effecting the CHP programs. Jeff's prepared speech was relatively short. The Q&A period filled the remaining time. Remember that you're generally safe if you do not exceed 70 mph on the freeway. However, if you are south of Thousand Oaks you'll get run over. Dick Brown will get his last practice session in running a Rotary meeting, and I appreciate him taking my place on the 26th. I should be in town the entire last quarter of my presidency, imagine that. At least I trained Dick well. Finally, I stated in the last Cogwheel that the 5th Wednesday would be held at my house. My wife is very pleased to report that John Rasmussen overrode that decision and we'll be having it at the Has Christian Andersen Park. "We Can Do It" and "Sew those Seeds" The Centennial Committee is recommending to the Boards of our 3 local Rotary clubs that the centennial project be the purchase and installation of children's playground equipment at the new Triangle Park in Solvang. Everything has beauty but not everyone sees it. ~ :-) Unknown :-) ~ Wednesday, March 26, 2003 @ 12:10 Beth Lepkowsky will share the history of the Santa Ynez Choral.
