The Gainesville-Haymarket Rotary meets every Wednesday at 7:30 am at the Piedmont Country Club. Here's the address:

14675 Piedmont Vista Drive, Haymarket, Va 20169

Please sign on to the District Club Database and review/update your membership information.

Last week we had the pleasure of inducting two new members into our Club. We welcome Prem Grewal and Jim Aram to our membership!

Earth Day, Every Day, presented by the Earth Day Committee

Here's a link to the Earth Day website.. The Bull Run Observer is putting together an ad with sponsorships that cost $99. It is a great way for our membership with businesses to get exposure for a very reasonable price and support the event. The paper is putting the whole thing together including getting the sponsorships for the ad.

The great news that the edition with the ad will be in the post office on Tuesday, April 21st and the event is on Saturday, April 25th. Perfect timing.

We'll tell you all about the Earth Day In Haymarket event at today's meeting.
