GOVERNOR'S CORNER
 
Due to the large number of wheelchairs and the immediate need, I gave the go ahead to begin distribution a few weeks early.  Recently, the Rotary Club Hermosillo Del Desierto delivered wheelchairs to the patients of the Foundation "Sonora Lives with Multiple Sclerosis".  For details about the distribution, click on the link below.

SuperBuild Pictures

 

Pictures from the SuperBuild 2012 for house number 1, built May 19 in Cierra Azul, Mexico outside of Tecate, are now posted on the District website. They can easily be downloaded and printed.  The link is http://www.district5300.org/superbuild/superbuild.html.  Take a moment to view the efforts of our clubs in our District - it's all because of their financial contributions and labor this is accomplished.

Capture the moments

 

We are in need of a few photographers for the District Conference sessions and meals. Many of us will be snapping away all weekend, but we would like to make sure one person is assigned to each activity, so we are sure not to miss any. If you are planning to come, and have a camera and the skills to use it, email Conference Chair Kathie Martin at rotarykat@gmail.com.
