Salmon Arm Rotary Club.. noon

We presented the "Five Minute Bullit"  Rotary Foundation here is what it is.  I was lucky to get 5 minutes.. there was a program by one of the club members on a Bridge Project in Ethiopia that was focused and stunning. They built a bridge across a river that connected 100's of thousands to trade, work and health services.  It was a successful humanitarian project and supported by the club.. it is noteable that the Rotary Foundation does support this type of project, however Ethiopia does not have Rotary.
The presentation was powerful and about "doing good".   The club is to be commended for it's caring support of this type of world service work.

President Kari welcomed us and commented  that the Salmon Arm R/C is the highest per cap donator to the Rotary Foundation in District 5060.   She thank me for my service to the Foundation.

The club members were very interested in Alaska and the motorcycle project.  They thanked me for coming and sharing Rotary.   Tomarrow it is onward to Armstrong, B.C.  Just down the road a piece.
There will be a feature in the Club Newsletter.
