At our September 8th Meeting, Dr. Laura Vanderberg will be our guest speaker and lead a hands on demonstration of WAPI making. WAPI's are Water Purification Indicators to be taken to Kenya team by our Interact Ambassadors to Kenya next summer. This is a project many of our Interact clubs adopt and Laura thought it would be fun our club to experience WAPI making also.

President's Message
Richard Hernandez
Hello fellow Sunupians,
I wanted to share with you my recent attendance at Frontier Rotary. It was nice to reaffirm a Rotarian is a Rotarian is a Rotarian. Service above Self is indeed universal across clubs. Thank you Danny for the invitation.
So for those who were not able to join us last Wednesday, Donna deployed a fun way to get our members to know other members a little better. I loved it and hope you will continue to embrace it.
If you don’t know what I’m talking about, no spoilers here, you’ll have to come to Wednesdays meeting to find out. Thank you Donna.
I want to continue to request thoughts and prayers for our friends and members dealing with a wide range of health issues.
Help Spread Sunshine: If you currently know any Rotary members who are going through challenging times or if you'd like to volunteer to make calls and send cards to members and their families during sickness, hospitalization or loss, contact Donna Jacobs, Club Service Director to learn more: thejacobs789@gmail.com
