Membership Contest Results.  Our member recruitment contest results are in.  We have a few new goldfish in our bowl, we met new people, and there a few prospective members in the wings. Seven teams competed with the winner earning a weekend at a nearby resort.  The winning group, with 16 points, is the team of Jim Adamson, Joan Wright and Jim Huffman.  Second place went to the team of Alan Walker, Norm Sturm, and Leslie Trebotich.  The competition continues between these two team through the end of May.  No prize is at stake, only the honor of being the Wenatchee Sunrise Rotary World Dominating Membership Acquisition Team (copyright pending).

New Members Bring Your Smile Next Week.  Joe Grimes, unofficially the official photographer of Wenatchee Sunrise Rotary, will be photographing new members for the directory.

We would  not have to clean highways
if everyone cleaned up after themselves
like this guy!

Highway Cleanup Success. No dogs helped but we had the support of Club and WVC Rotaract members. The enthusiastic sanitation experts collected 21 bags of trash over two hours.

Apple Blossom Festival Youth Parade is April 30th. Volunteers are needed from 9-12.  Help keep those rowdy Youth Parade viewers in control!  You even get a walkie talkie.  Contact Alan Walker.
