President Jake Starts Rotary Meeting at Tiger Field

Music by the one and only Rick Hill Jake’s Virtual Recognitions

Wayne Martin had his Porsche Club featured with Wayne being honored as Vice-President. Wayne men- tioned that Northern California has ideal roads for the outings the Porsche Club has on a regular basis. The cars are beautiful and the $100.00 Wayne donated to the club was very nice also.

Julie Winter was next showing off her new car. No fuel needed for a while.

Julie was also re-elected to the Redding City Council for four more years.

Julie is also shown at the Turtle Bay Garden of Lights. Looks like a great evening for $200.00

Dee Domke was recognized for her Oregon trip to a very nice beach home. She mentioned a herd of 100 elk walked right past her while on the trip. Looking at the picture I see a large group of seals. These must not be the elk she is referring to.

Dee donated $100.00 to the club. Thanks

A special request want to see your charitable dollars make a bigger impact in our local community? While Redding Rotary will continue to accept cash, check, and credit card pay- ments, we want to encourage our members to pay via check if possible.

Like other businesses, RCR pays credit card fees for every credit card transaction. Paying by check eliminates those fees and allows the club to keep expenses down. So, while we will continue to offer our members the convenience of paying via the link in their invoice, please consider saving the club some money by paying via check. Thank you!
