2019 Service Project Update
 
President Tungland invites all Waterloo Rotarians to contribute to the conversation regarding our 2019 Service Project. Through excellent club finance management practices, our club is in a position to support a local project and possibly tap into a district matching grant.  The board is collecting ideas and will be reviewing options the next several weeks, and your input is welcome. You can email Katelyn with suggestions for a project or voice support for one of the projects we've already suggested at previous meetings.  The board will discuss the process and start to narrow down the list of potential projects at their meeting Monday morning at 10:30. Board meetings are always open to members, and you are encouraged to be a part of the conversation!  The meeting will be in the seminar room right next to our regular meeting room in the convention center.
