Dick Babillis announced that the amount of money generated for the American Cancer Society was up 10% from the previous year - $39,158! Part of that amount was from the LPEA golf tournament where they designated Relay for Life as their non-profit recipient and which raised $12,000. The combined Rotary Clubs received the honor of top team and the newest Rotary PIG! Hopefully, Tony Simmons will find a way to display the PIGS at his new brew pub:-)
Sharon Crump handed out TICKETS for the Barn Dance. If you were not at the meeting, be sure to give her a call and get yours collected so that you can get SELLING! We need to do a bang-up job on this and get as many sold as possible and returned to Sharon for recording!
Nick Tallent told us a bit more about his trip to China. He and his 'little' 27 year old bother took a trip to Beijing, China! In a city of 25 million people they felt very safe - perhaps because they were physically so much bigger than everyone else. He especially enjoyed the monastery where it was less noisy than in the city - eating bugs was another first, but the 95% humidity and temperatures was hard to take

Our Speakers from the Urban Track Trail and Team were inspiring as they told us about their goals for developing single track in the downtown area in a cooperative effort with the Town of Pagosa Springs and Archuleta School District. So many good reasons to support this effort from economic to building self-confidence in our youth to developing healthy life-style and a life-long hobby! It will be interesting to support this group and their lofty dreams for the community.
