I couldn't be more excited as Steve and I prepare to leave this week on our first Rotary District 5280 humanitarian trip! For those of you joining us, we'll see you Wednesday. Those who are not able to join, we promise to represent our club in true Wilshire Rotary fashion and bring back our shared experiences.
 
I hope you'll enjoy happy hour together this week at El Coyote. Be sure to take note of the upcoming meetings through the rest of our Rotary year. We've got some exciting ones scheduled...... a zoom peace workshop series, shark tank pitches from our Interact students, a Tarot card reader to the Stars and more! Also - DO consider attending the District Conference May 4-7 at the beautiful Miramonte Resort in Indian Wells - so much great information, fun and fellowship!
