Dear Fellow Rotarians and Friends,
I would like to extend a warm Aloha to all of you who showed up bright and early this past Saturday at the Palama Settlement to participate in our last community service project for the 2017-2018 Rotary Year. It was a last minute project that was well attended by many of you who brought your friends and your Keiki. We made the best of a warm day, removing 2-4” of top soil and by replacing it with gravel and 5 planters. It’s truly remarkable what a few of us can do in less than two-hours time.
I hope all of you have physically recovered and are ready to take on more projects for next year as your new chair, Mona Choy-Beddow takes over. I told her that West Honolulu Rotarians are particularly fond of extremely strenuous, labor-intensive community service projects so she’s preparing a slate of activities which will no-doubt have you running to the medicine cabinet repeatedly, looking for that Costco family-sized bottle of Motrin. I’m looking forward to doing many more projects with you in the coming Rotary Year!
Aloha,
Richard
