Greetings from the Rotary Club of Lafayette!
The Pandemic has made it difficult for Rotarians to do what Rotarians do best – to make a difference in our communities, both locally and globally. Our Rotary Club has been thinking about ways to bring Lafayette together – even when we must remain apart. We would like to introduce you to a new project we hope you will be excited about too!
Let Your Flag Fly
Can You Imagine: American Flags flying from every Lafayette business, the length of Mt. Diablo Boulevard!
In honor of Veterans Day (November 11) and in partnership with Lafayette Ace Hardware, you can purchase an American Flag Kit through November 5th (flag, pole and bracket), for only $25 including tax (+ a $3 credit card fee). A Lafayette Rotarian will deliver the flag kit, fasten the bracket to your storefront, and your flag will fly from November 7 – 12, on patriotic holidays, or on every day throughout the year!
If you’re interested in participating in the ‘Let Your Flag Fly’ project, or have questions, please contact Rotary President Mary Lou Till at mtill@rockcliff.com or at 925-212-4546.
Consider ordering an extra flag for your home or to give as a gift in honor of a Veteran. The $25 cost will purchase the flag and support the many non-profit organizations your Rotary Club of Lafayette supports.
The Rotary Club of Lafayette is part of Rotary International, a service organization whose stated purpose is to bring together business and professional leaders to provide humanitarian services and to advance goodwill and peace around the world. Our Rotary Motto is: Service Above Self! During the COVID shelter-in-place, we meet every Thursday on Zoom from 12:15 – 1:30 pm, host a relevant guest speaker and conduct club business. Guests are always welcome! If you are interested in checking us out, email patriciafury@comcast.net for more information.
Respectfully,
Mary Lou Till, 2020-2021 President, Rotary Club of Lafayette
