Today, at our first meeting during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we were visited by Valerie Robinson of the American Cancer Society. Valerie shared the facts, including that 1 in 8 women in the US can expect a diagnosis of breast cancer sometime during her life, that men can get breast cancer, too and that the best measure for early diagnosis is regular mammography. Valerie conducted a quiz on the disease in which some Rotarians got some answers right. And President Steve Barton donned a pink boa in support of Breast Cancer Awareness.
Our program this morning features Rotary District 5030 Governor Bill McElroy. “Rotary is family.”
This morning District Governor Bill McElroy, accompanied by Assistant DG Basant Sing, visited University Sunrise and shared his vision of the strength of the Rotary community, the need to spread the work and boost the fun, the value of service to people we will never meet, and in one instance someone he did, and his excitement for next year’s district conference, to include a Guinness Book of World Records attempt. Thanks for coming by, Bill!
How awesome is this? Great to see our club’s support in action benefiting Outdoors for All Foundation!
Future Rock Stars!
The New President of University Sunrise Rotary, Steve Barton!
