"If Rotary is to realize its proper destiny, it must be evolutionary at all times, and, on occassion, revolutionary. "

~ Paul Harris ~

There is no regular meeting this week. The Board will meet on Tuesday in the upstairs conference room at Zion's Bank. 12 pm. All members are welcome. 

JOKE OF THE DAY

Two children ordered their mother to stay in bed on Mother’s Day morning. As she lay there looking forward to breakfast in bed, the smell of bacon floated up from the kitchen.
But after a good long wait, she finally went downstairs to investigate. She found them both sitting at the table, eating bacon and eggs.
“As a surprise for Mother’s Day,” one explained, “we decided to cook our own breakfast.”

Corporate Membership

The Ketchum - Sun Valley Rotary Club has implemented a new corporate membership plan.  The highlights of the plan includes one dues-paying member, and allows for up to 3 other members of a business to share the Tuesday lunch meal plan.  Please contact Alex Nevins, new members chair, at alex.nevins@dlevans.com.  

Bring a Guest for Free
What better way to introduce someone to Rotary - a free lunch.  All active Rotary members are invited to bring a friend to lunch for free.  Not only that, the sponsoring Rotarian receives a free Happy Buck!
 
Note, the free lunch is for first time visitors only.  After that, the cost is $25, but the value is priceless.
