REMINDER! ROTARY FOUNDATION DONATION (for you Voldemorts that shall not be named): You know how Metro donates $50 to the Rotary Foundation each year on your behalf, and we ask you to match that with another $50 donated at www.myrotary.org? Great news - you have until March 30 to make it count! Log into myrotary.org to get started. Don't have a Rotary International account yet? This is your chance to change that. Otherwise, you'll have to deal with Whitney's RBF.
