Thank you and more!
President Mike took the time to thank everyone that helped and stepped up to assure our Cajun & Blues Festival was a success this year.
He also shared a certificate we received from the City of Simi Valley thanking us for helping to promote youth employment.
He also highlighted the fact the Dorina Timbol's Platinum Sports Center was named Small Business of the Year by Assemblywoman Christy Smith in 38th Assembly District.
Estate Planning and Helping Rotary
Dan Gesell received an award from the Rotary Bequest Society for adding the Rotary Foundation to his will. He said it is a simple thing to do and you will be creating a legacy for the future. In his will he gifted 2% of one of his IRA's to the Rotary Foundation as a beneficiary, and of course he left the other 98% to his wife!
