Young Life Host Families Needed
Tony Ripley, a former member of the Eagan Rotary Club, is looking for some host families to host students he is bringing from Bulgaria to the United States. The days are fairly booked. The hope is the host family could provide breakfast, an end of day respite, and a place to sleep. Contact Scott Swenson with any questions. 
Thanks!
Propel Your Passion!
Take a minute to think about what you are truly passionate about. Then, the next time you are among your Rotary friends, take a look around. The people you see are the horsepower ready and willing to turn your passion into action. Then take a look at the Rotary District 5950 Grants webpage. There awaits a pool of funds to do the same.
Helping to turn your passion into action is why we all meet each week. So develop your idea and harness the club to do what it does best!
