Last week re-cap

Last week the annual Rotary District 5650 Conference was held in Lincoln. Many Suburban Rotarians were in attendance to learn about the issue of human trafficking and participate in preparing 400 hygiene bags for survivors of abuse at Magdalene House. Holly Hollenbeck, John Hoich, and Frank Goldberg participated in panels and several of our Past District Governors hosted tables. On Saturday night Past President Jared Bakewell received awards on behalf of the club including: #1 in Rotary Foundation Giving per capita, Best Large Club Community Service Project for the Homeless Foot Clinic, and #6 Club in the District based on a points system.

Congrats to all Suburban Rotarians for a great Rotary year!
