<!--StartFragment--><p class="MsoNormal">Good Morning Mendocino Rotarians,</p><p class="MsoNormal">As proposed at the Sept. 4 meeting, we are asking Club
members for a simple "Yes" or "No" vote on forgiving the loan
made to Rotary Park. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Forgiving the loan means that any future money raised can
go directly to park improvements, rather than paying back the Club. The loan
would become the club's contribution to this major community service project.</p><p class="MsoNormal">The Club Board of Directors <b>has approved</b> forgiving the loan.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Please send me your vote by 10 am Thursday. Reply to me <b>only</b> -- <u>do not hit reply all</u>
which sends your vote to the entire club.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,</p><p class="MsoNormal">Bruce Lewis</p><p class="MsoNormal">Club Communications Chair</p>
