Meet the latest Lake Chelan Rotarian

Adding to our growing membership was the induction last Tuesday of Glenn Kerns, a retired detective from the Seattle Police Department. He served the citizens of Seattle as a police officer for most of his career and was assigned to represent the department on the Joint Terrorism Task Force, a component of the Seattle based Federal Bureau of Investigation. Now that Glenn has retired, he is very interested in continuing to serve others in his new community. Glenn has the energy and enthusiasm to be an active/involved member of our club. Glenn is married to Christy, who is working at Lake Chelan Community Hospital Foundation.  Now Tom Anglin will have someone to talk to!


Glenn is receiving his pin from sponsor and brother-in-law Larry Bowers.  
Membership Chair Mary Watson did the inducting.

Were you aware that zipfizz is now a major sponsor of the 2016 Century Challenge and Cycle de Vine? Their support is with both financial help and product. They are joining Vin du Lac as our very appreciated sponsors this year.
