Past President, Josh Sprague and Susan Stiles were featured in the August 4 SunCurrent story. In part, an 8-year-old girl likely would have lost her life had it not been for two Edina Rotarians who stepped in to help. Saida, who lives in a remote village of Cobán, Guatemala, developed a large, protruding cyst on her face that had begun affecting her sight and ability to breathe. Josh and Susan decided they had to intervene and get Saida and her family the life-saving medical help they needed. The full story can be read by click HERE.

Back to the hybrid version of your choice to attend club meeting via IN-PERSON or ZOOM platforms. The continued excellent editing talents of C-Vision Productions (Chris Laskowski) is allowing us to make better use of the taped and edited meetings posted weekly to You Tube and use them as our new "In Review" format. This will eliminate the duty of "The Barker" note taker/writer and we will, for the time being, no longer publish written reviews. In-person meeting photos will resume. Keep in mind watching the You Tube video counts as a make-up. Let Becci know what meeting dates you watched and she will mark you as attended.
We will post the link to the last meeting video taped (see above) and photos from the meeting.
Thursday, August 12, 2021 there will be the hybrid version with in-person meeting at the Edina Country Club with doors open at Noon and ZOOM meeting beginning at 12:30 a.m.. Please see our club web page and watch your email for meeting updates.
