Fellowship and Service
Dunwoody Diners Support Ukraine

When 15 of the Dunwoody Diners gathered for dinner at Aomi last Saturday, they combined service with pleasure. The skills of the chefs (Japanese Hibachi style cooking) was both a visual delight and a culinary success. At the same time, the group initiated a fundraising effort for the Rotary Ukraine Disaster Relief Fund. The group hopes the rest of the Club will also want to participated. Ken Levy gave a very inspiring speech about the need for humanitarian relief for the victims in Ukraine. His speech raised more than $450. Of particular note, a family sitting nearby contributed $40 based on hearing Ken's appeal.

If you want to join in this effort, please bring either your check or a credit card to the meeting this Friday, April 8. If writing a check please make it out to the Dunwoody Rotary Charitable Fund and write  "Rotary Ukraine Disaster Relief Fund" in the notation section. Give any checks to either Ken Levy or Rick Otness.

Service Opportunity
Join Us at the Dunwoody Arts Festival May 6-8

This Mother's Day Weekend ... May 6-8 ... come and help as we support the Dunwoody Arts Festival by assisting with artist check-in and host a booth of our own that helps us tell our story to the community and prospective new members. Our support for this significant community event will be instrumental in the event’s success.

1. We need a few additional volunteers for Saturday morning artist check-in. Please contact Kathy Brandt if you are willing to help. If you are helping with Artist Check-in, please send Kathy your T-shirt size.
2. Please help spread the word. Invite Rotarians, friends, family, co-workers and/or prospective members to join us. This event is truly a significant event. It is fun. It is a great opportunity to experience “Rotary in the Community and In Action” And, our volunteer service really is appreciated by artists and festival organizers, who give us public recognition for our volunteer effort along with a complimentary, well-located exhibit space.
3. We need additional volunteers to help staff the Dunwoody booth on Saturday and Sunday. For additional sign-ups, please send Kathy name and contact information.

We can handle as many Rotarians and Friends of Rotary as we can identify. 

Thanks for Your Service
Rotary Bounds Garden Sprucetanza

We've all heard about Bounds Garden, the traffic island across from the Dunwoody Library. A week ago Saturday, the place drew a crowd of Dunwoody Rotarians who made quick work of sprucing up the Garden. Thanks to all, and especially to "Ranger" Fred Bounds for leading our efforts.
