ENGAGEMENT! President Rob Foster’s theme for the year ROTARIAN OF THE DAY: Warren Brown 
BOY SCOUT TROOP 807 UPDATEWest Jackson shared recent activities of our local scout troop. West has served as the chair of the board of the troop. The board handles administrative responsibilities, freeing up the scoutmaster to lead the troop. Because the goal of scouting is to train leaders, the boys, he emphasized, run the troop themselves. The older boys lead the younger boys. The troop averages almost one Eagle Scout a year. That is truly an accomplishment! They try to have a camp-out monthly and generally get in eight a year. The winter camp-out is their favorite. (But not West’s!) This summer, the boys will go to the Emerald Bay Scout Camp on Catalina Island, off the coast of southern California. This is a big trip for them, and they’ve worked hard to raise the money for it. Our club supports the cost of their summer camp. BACKPACK PROGRAMLassie Olin announced that Galles Realty donated $2,000 to the backpack program. YAY! SPONSORSHIPSShellie Peterson said we have reached $37,400 in sponsorships. Our goal is $50,000.
