DISTRICT SIMPLIFIED GRANT

We have submitted a District Simplified Grant application to enable us to purchase two more Rotary benches for placement in two more strategic locations in Newport. If successful, Our club will contribute $606 and the grant will match us $1212. This will mean some post hole digging, mixing of concrete, and a bit of labor on our part.

Remember??  
We will update you as soon as we hear the results of our application.

PAUL HARRIS FELLOWS

PE Jim Everett received his Paul Harris Fellowship and Pam Wall received her 8th!
Both were very fortunate to have our District Governor, Magda Baggett present their awards.

HOOTENANNY IS HAPPENEN' !

The annual Newport Hootenanny was almost a wash this year, but thanks to our own Ruthann Sluss, it is a go!
Ruthann has taken over the reigns and is putting together a bang up event. Ruthann need some help though. She needs volunteers to help the night of the event, and she needs donations of pre-wrapped candy to give to the children when they win a game. Our Rotary club is donating $330 to sponsor a sno-cone machine. Everything is free for the kids.
The date for the Hootenanny is Saturday, October 30, 2010 and will be held at the  Little League Ball field on Howard Boulevard in Newport from 6pm to 9pm. For more information call Ruthann at 252-223-2333 or email her at ruthanns@vol.com.




Come on out and join the fun!
