What Did You Miss?
Clint and Robert:
Well done today! You both represented the AV Rotary Club extremely well with your kind and thoughtful words this morning.
Each recipient (Sue RG and Tami T) received a $500 check from the AV Rotary Club this morning, both had tears in their eyes as they accepted their award today. Very cool! This award is a very big deal inside AVHS, we are so very appreciative of Rotary's generosity over the years supporting public education in Apple Valley!
Bill: I will write an article before June 17 and I will send it in to the Sun Current. I will copy you on the final message, you can then do your magic to make sure the article gets published!
