Dear Members,

Please join me this Wednesday as member Dan Thompson informs us on the new changes coming our way in health care reform.

For those of you that missed the tree planting in the park on New Years Eve, Ken Whittle did another great job organizing the event and we planted 25 new trees in our community park!

Thank you to all the members and their family and friends who participated in the planting. And special thanks to Richard Dale and Judy Henbury for a great BBQ lunch!

Please join your fellow Rotarian's in supporting our own "Citizen of the Year", Sean Sure at the Nipomo Chamber of Commerce Installation and Awards Dinner on Thursday January 17th.

Tickets are available at http://www.nipomochamber.org/

Also this month plan to attend the District 5240 Symposium to Eliminate Poverty Sustainably (STEPS) on January 26th.

It will be held at the University of California, Santa Barbara from 8:00am to 3:30pm. You can register online at www.rotarydistrict5240.org or contact our International Service Director, Bill Pucciarelli for more info on the event.

I hope to see you all this Wednesday!
