Family of Rotary

In the spirit of the Rotary family, Groveland Rotary moved their luncheon meeting on October 18 to an evening meeting to have a joint meeting with some members of Sacramento Rotary. About 20 Sacramento Rotarians and spouses toured Yosemite National Park, and then came back down to Groveland for the joint meeting. I am proud of President Ron and the Groveland Rotary Club.

With Rotary Pride,

Mark Oliver, District Governor
