Check for Bark Park
Great meeting, great pizza for lunch. Dan Johnson bought the extra Pizza for $20 for delivery to The Foundary (new name for The Axiom) kids center.
We were pleased to have two Rotarian guests; Paula Gross from Rotary San Ramon but living in Lincoln and Gary MacDonald Executive Director of the Lighthouse + member of Lincoln Leadership class of CofC + member of Rotary eClub One.
We presented a Check of $750 to the Lincoln Leadership Dog Bark Park being built near the BB courts at McBean Park. Gary MacD. gave a brief presentation about the project being sponsored by Friends of McBean Park and the CofC Lincoln Leadership Class.
