We are cancelling our meeting tonight (May 21) due to weather. Expect our June 4th meeting to be twice as good!

And while we mostly have been communicating via text messages, we still have a lot of good information on our website omaharotarynight.org.. Here's a recap of some of the stories.

(If you aren't receiving text messages, please contact Mark Sanford!)

Crosskey Villages Map Board

We were rained out in April, but we're trying again in June! We will clean up yet another Map Board at Crosskey Villages Park at 9:30 on June 1. Sign up and get directions on our calendar page. (click here)

We'll even make it a two-fer! Bring luggage for the Boys Town Successful Futures Project!

Collecting Luggage for Boys Town Successful Futures

"Is it better than a trash bag?" Tom Krehbiel spoke at our club about the Boys Town Successful Futures program. This program helps the graduating students getting ready to make that next transition. One thing that struck all of us in the audience is the thought that many of these students pack their belongings to their next phase in life in garbage bags. We all thought - we can do better than that.

Please bring suitcases, duffle bags, gym bags or whatever to any of our Rotary meetings or events.

Helping a friend - Mimi Rogers

We have learned that one of our club's charter members Mimi Rogers-Farkas has ALS. Mimi was a member of our club from 2009 to 2014 and has moved to Texas. There is a go-fund-me page (link) to help her pay for her care. Continue reading for more about Mimi. As Mark Sanford says, "The smile on her face is so Mimi!"
