About Our Club:
 
The RSR Board set the example of "distance meetings" by holding the monthly meeting via conference call on March 21.
 
 
Important for us to know:
 
- The Atlantis is closed thru at least April 17.  All meetings are cancelled until the Thursty Thursday April 30.  More information about this event later!
 
- We are exploring ways to meet virtually, and have scheduled a test run/town hall for Thursday April 9 at 12:15 pm.
 
- We are looking for ideas for hands-on service projects to take place after we are able to reassemble with normal social distances!  Suggestions so far include Food Bank, tree planting, Robinhood Park maintenance.  Do YOU have an idea??  Please let Adrienne know: athomle@msn.com or 763.438.2327 (m)
 
- The Board approved the donation of our share of district international grant funds to the Fernley project Soles for Souls in Pakistan.
 
- The Club is exploring a grant for next year to partner with Urban Roots.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
RSR Upcoming Events & Programs:
 
ALL MEETINGS ARE CANCELLED AT LEAST THROUGH APRIL 23.
 
Although the District conference has been cancelled, our Area 8 will have the speech and music contests later in April or May.  We will let you know--attending these events is inspiring.
 
We are evaluating how to continue with the Achievement Beyond Obstacles events. Students will receive applications and an opportunity to earn their $100 stipend.  More information will come as it is available.
 
We are having a virtual meeting on April 9.  As soon as we determine the platform we will use--you will know!  Please let President Kyle know if you want to participate, either by responding to his recent email "Are You Interested" or my sending him a note and greeting to kylewhaley@sbcglobal.net
 
Member News:
 
Alex Davis is freed from dialysis, and trying to overcome boredom while prudently staying home.  
 
Keeping in touch is important, so let Bob Stewart (rotarystewart@gmail.com) or Jonnie (jonnie.pullman@gmail.com) know of any news so we can put in in the bulletin, which will continue on at least a weekly basis.
 
Our outbound exchange student Emily Cady will remain in Sweden through the spring term.  Our current student from Austria, Emily Haustein, is also staying until the end of the school year, thanks to a resourceful host mom.
