  Not to make our Club seem like we have a problem with libations, but mark your calendars for Friday, October 14th as we will be having our first ever Oktoberfest Pints for Polio Pub Crawl!  This fun event will be held to raise funds and awareness for Polio Eradication efforts.  We hope to see you there.  Details coming soon!
 
 
 
 
SERVICE PROJECTS:  
 
 
 
Our drive to support the Harlingen Humane Society was a great success!  Thank you to all those who contributed your efforts to help our four legged friends in the community.  Special thanks to Sumer Knight, Tre' Peacock, Janette Peacock, and Kathy Preddy for helping deliver the items.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
Have a great week, and don't forget to bring your friends, spouses, and future Rotarians to our Happy Hour Social!
