Hi, Fellow Rotarians,
 
We meet at Franklin Pierce University for a Club Assembly on Thursday, March 9th, at 7:15am.  There will be no guest speaker, but the Board will propose new projects, including sponsorship of a foreign exchange student and various potential Community Service Projects, some of which were discussed two weeks ago during the latter part of the meeting when we broke into groups of two. 
 
Meanwhile, the Board will meet via ZOOM on Wednesday, March 8th, at 8:00am, and the outcomes of that meeting will be shared with those in attendance on Thursday.
 
Bill Coleman will be leading this week's Club Assembly.   
 
Snowbirds may attend via zoom starting at 7:30am: https://us05web.zoom.us/j/2258313694?pwd=SnJtbTNtR2h3S3JQTnlENzZKVXdzUT09
 
 
Yours in Service,
