ROTARY DISTRICT 5220 FRIDAY FACTS
Friday Facts, April 7

The English Have Landed

A youth exchange group from D1080 has arrived for a three-week stay in our District. The first week will be in Sonora area, the second week in the Modesto area, and the final week in the Stockton area. Please make an effort to meet them, and make them feel welcome. Our exchange group will travel to England in July.

Tenaya Lodge Full

We have been advised that the Tenaya Lodge rooms have all been taken, but you can still register and stay at the Apple Tree Inn near Tenaya. They have a verity of rooms for similar cost as the Tenaya. Toll free number for their reservations is 1-888-683-5111. We can accommodate an additional 100 people at the meetings, even if you have to stay a short distance away.

New Panel Member

RI Director Jerry Hall had to cancel his participation in our District Conference because of family commitment. We are fortunate to be able to announce that Past RI Director Sam Greene, from Thousand Oaks, California will fill in to round out our Saturday afternoon round table. Sam is a very dedicated Rotarian and you will enjoy hearing from him.
