EThe Bryan
Rotary Club is busy preparing for the
2008 Benefit Auction to be held on
Saturday, May 3rd, at the McDonald Ruff
Ice Arena on Townline Road in Bryan,
from 8:30 am – 12:00 noon. This event
can be heard on WBNO radio station and
will be broadcast live on Bryan City
Cable BMU Channel 3 and TV26. Thanks to
many generous local businesses, the
auction will feature several blocks of
items ranging from vacation plans and
sporting event tickets to car care items
and local gift certificates. Following
the radio and cable auction, a live
auction will begin, featuring many new
and gently used donated items.
In addition to the auction, the club
will be serving an all NEW delicious
lunch featuring BBQ pulled pork,
Chubbie’s potato salad, dinner roll and
drink. Tickets for lunches can be
purchased from any Rotarian and can also
be purchased the day of the event.
Proceeds from the event will benefit the
Williams County Public Library, Bryan
Rotary Scholarship recipients and other
club projects. |

Just a quick
reminder of the goal that our Bryan Rotary Club
set - to get a commitment from EVERY Bryan
Rotarian for $100 every year, to be given to The
Rotary Foundation. Many of you have already
stepped up to the plate and either written your
check for $100 to The Rotary Foundation, OR you
are continuing to collect loose change and bills
in your EREY boxes. And speaking of the EREY
boxes, we have set a date of Friday, June 8 to
bring in your EREY box to the weekly meeting on
that Friday. We will collect the boxes, count
the money inside each box, and then credit your
EREY Rotary Foundation account for that amount.
Or, if you prefer, you can bring in your $100
check that day as well. Please say "IDI" (I'll
Do It!) and do your part in meeting our goal of
EVERY Bryan Rotarian giving $100 this year to
The Rotary Foundation. That's 30 cents a day!
Please refer to the May newsletter as to the
impact these dollars have on those in the world
who are not as fortunate as us.
So, how are we doing
to date? Here are the totals to date (as of
04/29/2008). |
