We had a good meeting with DG Gary and Mary Chenoweth. Pictured is President Catherine Ristola Bass, Membership chair Terry DeHaan,  ADG Russ Miller, Copper Jennings, and DG Gary Chenoweth.  Gary inducted Cooper Jennings as a member of our club and Cooper is already the president of the Hope College Rotaract Club. The Rotaract treasurer, Andi Dekker, also attended.

UPDATE:  Rotary Club of Boulder has donated more funds and so we can do five more homes, great news! You can still donate to the Kenya water and sanitation project, please contact Kathy DeVries.

 

The Holland Rotary clubs donated $6000 to bring clean water to homes on the Oglala Lakota Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. The water comes to the edge of the res, but there is no good way to get it to the homes of the people without running a lot of pipe. This work was done in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Boulder, CO.

 

           

A good time was had by all at the first social event--a 9 hole scramble at Macatawa Golf Club:  Howard Fink, Dave Steenwyk, Jason Gargala, Robert Ortman, guest Russ Richardson, Tim Schreur, Terry DeHaan.
