FUN Stories
From Kim's Facebook Post:  A local radio station kept trying to contact me and I ignored it as I thought it was a scam. Turns out that someone anonymously nominated me for their Les Schwab Wheels of Honor Community Service Award promotion and I won. I received some nice prizes, which I’m donating to various philanthropic organizations I’m in.That was a fun way to start my day. Thank you to the person or organization who nominated me.
 
Congratulations Kim!

Fred Kaufhold,  from Skagit Bay Search and Rescue, joined us at the Feb 27th Meeting.  Fred is part of the Skagit Bay Search and Rescue (SBSAR) non-profit organization who provide marine-related support to the Skagit County Sheriff's Department.  SBSAR team members are trained in boat operations, navigation, search and rescue procedures and medical support and transportation. They operate under the authority of the Skagit County Sheriff’s Office of Search and Rescue Operations and work closely with the Sheriff's Marine Patrol Unit, US Coast Guard, and other SAR authorities.  Missions typically cover waters from Skagit Bay through Deception Pass, up the Skagit River to the North Fork Bridge, and in the Swinomish Channel through Fidalgo and Padilla Bays.

Our President is very adept at multi-tasking.  While listening to Fred's speech she kept our youngest Rotarian entertained.

Corrin Hamburg, President of the Skagit Valley Rotaract club, joined our meeting and provided us an update on the Rotaract club.  This group meets once a month and focus on hands on volunteering.  Every 3rd Saturday of every month they volunteer at  the Helping Hands Food Bank.  They would love to have Rotarians joined them for this activity.  If you would like more info email Skagitrotaract@gmail.com.
