GOVERNOR'S CORNER

I want to thank all the clubs that have submitted their funds for our Wheelchair Project.  I have requested my two Chairs, Ben Tafoya of Victorville and Larry Smith of Boulder City, to reach out to club presidents via email or phone to follow-up on missing pledges.  If you have not yet sent in your funds, please send them into the District office, with a clear notation on the check - Contribution to the Wheelchair Project - as soon as possible.  The gift of mobility that these wheelchairs provide truly changes the lives of the recipients.  Thank you!
