Dear Rotarians,
 
Tomorrow will be another great Rotary meeting!  Our guest speaker is Carol Kitabayashi, Executive Director of Westside Pacific Villages, an organization that aids and assists the elderly.  Please make sure to read the email Andy sent out yesterday on the program to learn more about how we can help.
 
We had a great visit to the Midnight Mission this past Saturday and some of the Rotarians who participated will share their experience with the club at tomorrow's meeting. Howard sent 500 bags of jelly beans down to the Mission which the Venice High School Interact students distributed.
 
The club had great representation this past Saturday by Joe Chehade, Bobbie Casalino-Lewis and Tony Ciancimino at the Rotary Peace and Sex Trafficking Seminar.  More to come . . .
 
Please member to sign up for Ralphs Grocery Store Awards program which is free dollars to our Foundation.  Not sure how to do it, contact Jerry Jen. 
 
We will be distributing an updated calendar shortly as things are quickly filling in with the holiday season just around the corner.
 
And speaking of around the corner, the Cultural Dinner set for October 18, 2015 is coming together nicely and we are thrilled with the generosity of our sponsors The Drollinger Family Charitable Foundation, Cedars Sinai Marina Del Rey Hospital, Los Angeles World Airports and William H. Hannon Foundation.  Please remember that we need 100% participation from the membership on this event to reach our goal of net $30,000.00 for the Playa Venice Sunrise Rotary Foundation.  We hope you will be attending, can help us with auction items and door prizes and invite your friends, neighbors, families and colleagues.  
 
Come join us for our next Happy Hour on Thursday, October 5, 5:00 p.m. at Bowlero in Westchester.  Don't miss out on the happenings, fellowship, synergy and activities of our great club!
 
Yours in Fun, Fellowship and Friendship,
 
President Gwen
