Clark Ferguson, recently of Lethbridge Sunrise and now living in Toronto, sent the following message to be shared with members of the Club:
"A short note to update you on my Rotary membership. I have joined this club [Rotary Sunrise Club of Toronto], effective this morning [Tuesday, July 15]. I look forward to sharing my experiences with Rotary in Lethbridge with this club. Last weekend we moved to longer term leased accommodation, a 10 minute walk from my Rotary club and a total of 22 minutes from my office. A week ago, I joined Marketwired in a full time role as VP Infrastructure & Security. So things are finally starting to settle for us in Toronto. More news shortly."
The Rotary Clubs of Lethbridge have committed to 110 donations through our "Partners for Life" agreement with Canadian Blood Services, for 2014. As of July 7, we have 53 donations which puts us a little behind target at the midway point of the year.
The need for blood is critical with blood supplies being at a 5 year low. As of July 7, the Lethbridge clinic needs 542 more people to book appointments for the month of July. Please consider booking an appointment whether you are a regular donor, a lapsed donor, or a first time donor. By taking one hour of your time, you will saving or enhancing someone's life. If you are not registered with Rotary's "Partners for Life" simply let them know at the clinic and they will add you to the list.
Family members and friends can also register to be included as RC Sunrise "partners".
A happy group of volunteers from RC Sunrise and RC East drove to Calgary Wednesday July 9 to serve food at Fort Calgary for the Rotary Clubs of Calgary fundraiser, during the Calgary Stampede.
