Greetings Rotarians and Friends,
Sorry for the long delay since the last update. I’ve been busy traveling to physics conferences the last couple weeks and preparing one of our local community pools for the summer every weekend. We have two meetings this weekend: our regular meeting at United Church on Tuesday at 12:00pm as well as dinner at Beef & Leaf on Thursday at 6:00pm.
Los Alamos County Social Services Director Jessica Strong will be our guest speaker at our regular meeting this week. She has extensive experience in public and community services and oversees programs supporting youth, families, seniors, behavioral health, and vulnerable residents throughout Los Alamos County. She will discuss current community needs, available resources, and the evolving role of social services in the Los Alamos community.
We’ll also be meeting the new Interact board and saying farewell to outgoing seniors.

On Thursday at 6:00pm, we’ll be meeting for drinks and dinner at Beef & Leaf Cafe as well as to discuss long-term club strategy.

Congratulations to Lance Metcalf (Great Expectations Scholarship), Matthea Fung (Rotary Service Scholarship), Justin Crane (Vocational/Trade Scholarship), and all other students who applied.
