[Rotary] Sunshine Queen needs YOU

[Guenter Riegler]

To:  John and Rotary Club Members

Because everyone has a lot going on, I suggest that we have a Coordinator for a week at a time.  Ideally the coordinator would visit Wilma every morning, discuss any plans for the day, see what’s needed (specific help or action, cleaning up dishes, etc.) and then organize it.  The coordinator would make another visit in the late afternoon to help organize for supper and the evening.

If folks want to bring food, they could check with the week’s Coordinator to see what day would be best.

Our schedule would allow Sandy and me could be the coordinators for the second week (Saturday 9/13 through Friday 9/19) if you want to try this plan.
