Dick Martinez gave us an update on our Rotary Amigos project. A change in the construction schedule has caused us to cancel our original project that was to take place Jan. 25th. Dick and Tom Crosby will make another trip to Tecate to look at another project. The new date will follow.
John Davis announced that 20 wheelchairs have been purchased with foundation money and are being stored at Ray Bushnell’s warehouse until delivery can be made to Tijuana.
Bob Novell gave us an update on a project we are doing with the Flying Doctors of Mercy. $35,000 is being raised for an ultrasound machine and an X Ray machine that will be used in Mexico. $10,000 will come from our club plus matching funds from the District. The remaining $15,000 will come from a source yet to be named. The finances should be in place by some time in March.
According to Jim Pontello we will have our Day at the Races on March 4th. Lunch will be in the Front Runner restaurant. Last year was cancelled due to a very large increase in cost, so it is good to have this popular event back on the calendar.
