PROGRAM
Our own Dave Brown spoke about his new venture selling photo and video enhancement services. They take surveillance pictures that do not appear to have any useful info and enhance them to bring out details you would not think are there.
J & O Update
If you signed up to ask a winery to participate and you haven't done it yet, contact Dave Bemis before you do. With time getting short, he is making contact himself.
Dave Lawrence reminds everyone to bring in auction items. Gabi reminds everyone to sell tickets. Jim still needs more O'Chefs. Ask your neighbors.
Sunny Fields Park Work Day
Last Saturday, Rotarians from all the valley clubs turned out to freshen up the play structure in Sunny Fields Park. The structure was Rotary's gift to the community in honor its 100'th anniversary. Susan Merek Dullea organize our paint crew and brought water and sodas for everyone. A van full of boys from Los Prietos also helped with the heavy work.
Anyone with photos is encouraged to send them to Dean for inclusion in next week's Olive Branch.
