Salcedo, DR, School Project

Dear Team,

It's been a full & exciting day in Roseburg at our morning District
Rotary Foundation Seminar & afternoon WCS Committee meeting.
Several of you were present. For those of you not there, if you have
questions please ask & I will promptly reply.

My presentation of the project in the morning was well received
followed by a few questions. I brought two 2x3 bulletin boards
on an easel stand with several photos & captions of the Club Rotario
Salcedo & the project site, Escuela Primaria Maria Josefa Gomez.

At the afternoon WCS Committee we reviewed 52 pending projects
plus 10 new projects. Our project was first. It sailed through without
a question. All 10 of the projects were approved unanimously.

I delivered to the D5110 WCS Treasurer all of your checks except one
for $300 which is in the mail. But we were received as a fully
funded (Clubs) project.

The RI Matching Grant Application which Josefina, Rita, Margarita &
Gustavo of the Club Rotario Salcedo so very capably completed to the
last detail, I obtained both remaining required signatures. The
reviewer was surprised that it was already complete with all required
signatures. I brought it home & will mail it to the RI Rotary
Foundation this Monday.

Now comes the part which requires patience, waiting for RI to review
& approve our project. We'll be positive that it will also sail
through RI & not take up to the 3 months.

Lori Fleck & Kevin Martin from our Club were also there in support.
They attended the Leadership Academy. Lori & her husband will be in
Costa Rica this Winter. She wants to coordinate with me a trip
together to Salcedo.

Thank you, all of you for your strong support & encouragement. You
make it fun.

Norm
