Good evening, Valley View Rotarians! It's so nice and warm out! I popped a couple windows open today and it felt great. 
 
This week's program is Vicki Elwood to talk with us about all the greatness going on at the Muse Theater. Again, we will be meeting at the Y North and Zoom will be available.
 
This week's notes:
  • Host families needed: Valley View Rotary Club is hosting an exchange student for the upcoming year! The student is a boy from Thailand and the search is on for host families. Please contact Nancy Schmidt with questions on the wonderful experience of hosting or with any leads on potential host families. Currently, the school he will attend is not yet determined. If you would like to provide potential host family information for contact by Rotary Youth Exchange, please fill out and submit this form
  • Mobile Meals: Thank you to Heidi for emailing the sign-up for our upcoming Mobile Meals delivery week (May 16-May 22) as part of our Club Service. Thanks to all who have signed up, we are only in need of volunteers for the Monday, May 16, shift! Sign up via this link
  • The 2022 Festival Foods La Crosse Marathon is asking for volunteers to make the Saturday, May 7, event a success. They are looking for volunteers for a few hours on the morning of Saturday, May 7, at the finish line at Riverside Park. Jobs include working food tents, helping with setup and/or clean up, handing out medals to race finishers, and working the bag drop area. If interested, please register for volunteer spots here: https://signup.com/go/YigwYiE
  • Reminder that the Holmen Area Rotary Club’s annual service auction fundraiser is Friday, May 6, at the Cargill Room (Waterfront) from 5 to 8 p.m. Tickets are only $25 or invite some friends and sponsor a table for 8 at $250. Price includes a fabulous hot appetizer bar and there will be a cash bar. Live Auction items in the past have included gourmet cakes, airplane flights, sailboat excursions, weekend getaways, special dinners, grass cutting, car detailing and many, many more.

See you Wednesday at the Y North!

Donating the number of years at your birthday to the Rotary Foundation for Polio has become a club tradition.   Just log in to My Rotary and click on donate.   The participation has been truly awesome and given the average age of our club, this is a significant amount of money!
