Prosper Rotary Club In-Service Day 09/14/23

Prosper Rotary Club Meeting Notes of 09/14/2023
 
Prior to our regular members meeting, the chapter board met with (pictured left to right below) John Curtis, our District Governor, John's wife Janie Curtis, and Joy Hinkelman our District Assistant Governor. We discussed several issues key to our chapter's growth and development.
 
 
If you missed today’s meeting, you missed a super experience. We did a service project; we put together 200 bags of snacks and treats for the client kids of our club supported non-profit Neighbors Nourishing Neighbors (N3). It was a fun hands-on experience where everyone in attendance was able to contribute something of value for N3.
Harlan delivered the 200 bags to N3 Friday.
 
It felt good to actually do some hands-on work for one of our local non-profits, and I hope we can do something like that again soon.
