Congratulations Hugh!!

Walked into today's meeting. A packed room filled with not only the usual club members but numerous district officers, current and past presidents and more. They had come to present a member with the Citation for Meritorious Service. An award that recognizes individual Rotarians who have demonstrated outstanding hands on service to The Rotary Foundation. We all knew the award was for Hugh Murphy before they said it. Hugh has dedicated a great deal of time and energy to support the Polio+ foundation, Rotary's drive to aid in ending polio around the world. He is known throughout the district for his commitment to this passion. Well deserved and congratulations Hugh! We are lucky to share the room with you on Tuesday mornings!

Olive oil tasting with Milagros Castro

Thanks for the olive oil lesson today Milagra. Number one lesson, fresh is king, doesn't mater where your oil is from Italy or California, fresher is better. We got to try some local olive oil picked and pressed in October, yum! Did you know olive oil on the shelf in stores can be over 2 years old? So bland and greasy. It is amazing how flavorful fresh oil is.

Rotary Club distributes dictionaries to third-grade students

A group of third graders received a special gift—the gift of words.

The Rotary Dictionary Project is a nationwide effort to provide young students with their own personal dictionaries. Members of the San Rafael Harbor Rotary Club distributed the dictionaries to students at Bahia Vista Elementary School.

This year’s dictionary is filled with more than just terms and definitions. It also includes a mini encyclopedia filled with maps, facts about U.S. presidents, and math conversation tables.

Rotary members say seeing the joy on the children’s faces when they learn the book is theirs to keep makes the project worthwhile.

Pacific Coast Marlins Learn to Swim

Pacific Coast Marlins Learn to Swim

Once again we dove into the fun by visiting the Pacific Coast Marlins Learn to Swim Program! 🏊‍♂️ We make a splash each year by supporting these FREE small group swim lessons for over 150 children who attend the summer program at San Rafael City Schools. The children range from 5-9 years old and are from low-income, underserved working families in our community. A big thanks to the inspiring women who organize this valuable program every summer and the local student volunteers who make this program a huge success!
