First picnic of the new Rotary Year

SRCrotaryLeave a comment

Although persistent rainstorms drove us indoors for the evening, Dick and Mary Drumm hosted a sumptuous picnic-style pulled pork dinner on Thursday, the first official event of our 2017-18 Rotary Year. Additional appetizers and desserts from the guests made for a very wide variety of treats.

Next Thursday’s “Summer Casual” event will be a pool party and cookout at the Forth residence in East Greenbush. Please RSVP to mmforth51@gmail.com no later than  Tuesday and, if you plan to attend, please bring a small appetizer or dessert. Kids welcome!

Here are a few scenes from this week’s event (which also served as a Gift of Life fundraiser):
