Announcements & Information

Today, we installed Donald Zehnder, Jr. as the newest member of our club. Don was sponsored by his father, Donald Zehnder, Sr.

Marcelo thanked all that attended the club assembly at his home. One of the goals that is very important to him is "Every Rotarian, Every Year" to donate to the Rotary International Foundation. This year's goal is $3900 or $100 per member.

A big thank you to Joe DaSilva and John Ford for all they did to assure a great event on Sunday for the Donovan/Ruhlman Bike race. With the donation for food and drinks that Alexandra Martins and John Ford donated, we were able to raise $146 for "End Polio Now".

The Naugatuck Rotary Scholarship Fund was the recipient of the proceeds from the Bike Race.
