In Memoriam


Rotary iconMeeting Programs

May 9th - Roberta "Birdie" Davenport - The Mima Mounds
The Mima Mounds Natural Area Preserve (NAP) was established in 1976 to protect rare examples of mima mound landforms and Puget prairie grasslands. Scientists continue to debate the mounds' origins. Was it the thawing and freezing during the last ice age that caused the land to buckle? Or perhaps pocket gophers were at work, having since moved on to haunt golf courses?
May 16th - Randy Hudson, Red Cross
Randy Hudson is the Regional CEO of the Red Cross Western Washington Chapters. Find out what's happening with our local Red Cross operations, meet the new Rainier Chapter CEO Tracy Peacock and learn about the commitment to Red Cross mission delivery and community involvement in Grays Harbor.
May 23rd - Chris Barron,  Partnership for Learning
Mr. Barron will explain the creation of A+ Washington, a road map to transform education in our state. The plan provides educators, parents, and community members with systems and support needed to better serve our children.
