This Friday Mar. 29, 2019


Dear Fellow Rotarians,

Today is a great day….Opening Day for the New York Yankees!! Yes Spring has now "truly arrived", right at the moment of the first pitch. There is hope in our world after all. J

Last Friday was great! We had two local women, Padma and Jenny, sharing about their grassroots efforts to get everyone in Briarcliff Manor to no longer use plastic bags for grocery’s' but to carry reusable bags when shopping. The name of their grassroots organization is called “Briarcliff Sustainability Committee.” They are encouraging residents to sign a petition that will hopefully help change the ordinance, requiring all shops to not use plastic bags. They were very well spoken and very convincing. Those of us there were given reusable clothe bags.

Tomorrow, are wonderful President Elect, Rachel, will be are main speaker, sharing about her recent experience at PETS.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone there tomorrow!
