As part of our efforts to increase the visibility of the club, we are planning to have a vendor booth at festivals in June, Juneteenth and Lansing Pride, assuming we can secure enough volunteers. Volunteers will hand out promotional materials in two-hour shifts (canopy, table and chairs will be provided), with at least two members per shift. Here are the details:
Lansing Pride: Saturday, June 27, 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM
Turner and Chavez, Old Town Lansing
Need: at least 6 volunteers
If you are interested in volunteering on Saturday, please email Linda Sarnelli: linda@suitsandthecity.org
We have a service opportunity at the Greater Lansing Food Bank on Tuesday, September 22nd from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. located at 5600 Food Ct., Bath Township. Please let Jason Brunette know if you can help: Jason.Brunette@martincommercial.com
On a cool Thursday afternoon, a number of Lansing Rotarians gathered at The Irish Pub for drinks, food and conversation. It was good for this Rotarian to catch up a bit after spending the winter away. At my table, conversation ranged from MSU politics to weather – Florida versus Michigan.
Drinks were flowing as Rotarians enjoyed rueben egg rolls, pizza and salad. I would never order pizza with chicken on it, but the Rooster (with chicken, tomato and spinach) was delicious!
I had to leave a bit early, so I can’t speak to how long the gathering ran. I just know that the conversation was still lively as I departed.
