Dear Rotarians,
We are sad to share that Rotarian Harold "Dave" Davis passed away this past Saturday. Dave is the brother of Rotarian Peter Davis. Funeral arrangements are unknown at this time, and we shall update you when details are known.
A beautiful day for "Scarecrows on the Common" this past weekend. Thanks to those Rotarians who helped with the hayloft. The weather could not have been better!
We will meet this Thursday, October 9th, at Franklin Pierce University, at 7:15am. Donna Dios, our District Governor, will be our guest.
We will not meet next week, October 16, because our auction is the following evening on October 17th.
We are moving into the final push on our auction.
