DUXBURY ROTARY CLUB
Wednesday, May 31, 2017 for the meeting of June 7
Fred reported that $1, 054.00 had been raised in the first week of selling ducks.
He sold fifteen mega ducks last year and might try for eighteen this year. If he reaches this number the prizes might be raised to $300.00 for the business that has the winning duck. Mega Ducks cost $125.00 for a new purchaser and $100.00 if the duck was used in the previous year. Fred will be tying up the bag of ducks. Michelle will be the MC and has some prizes left from last year. It is hoped that WATD might cover the race. Fred has posters to distribute. Bruce R. will get the banner in the Clipper the week before the race and will write an article about it. Steve is working on getting permission to use the land from the Duxbury Rural and Historical Society. Karl will help with the Angry Duck launch. The Duck Waddle will be covered by Michelle?
Steve and Linda, Fred’s wife Diane and their friends Sandi and Mark and Charlie and his friend Brit and Bob J. will be out in the boats retrieving ducks.
George and Cheryl were at the Scholarship Awards to give out the Duxbury Rotary awards.
SCHEDULE: June 7, Martin Taylor, the Executive Director of the Plymouth Habitat for Humanity, will hopefully will be present to accept the money raised for the veteran’s housing. Steve hopes that the Legion and the Lyons Club will join us to work on the Vet Build project. The Lyons Club will be holding a October Fest to raise money for the Vet Build. There is one unit to be built on Temple St. and six on Lake Shore Drive and one of them will be for the Vet Build. It is hoped that the Legion and Lyons club will agree to join us in donating $100.00 per person and supply workers to spend a day building the homes.
June 21, Duck Sorting at Steve and Linda’s house starting at 5:00 PM.
June 24, Duck Race.
June 28, Charter Night at Disch’s Tavern, Pembroke. The menu is Caesar Salad, choice of London Broil, Baked Atlantic Haddock or Grilled Chicken Breast followed by Apple Blueberry Crisp. Be sure to let Steve “know” (secret word) whether you, and your guest, can attend and what your meal choice will be. The cost per person is $35.00 with the club paying the rest including taxes and tips.
FINES, Paul collected a flat rate of $2.00 per person. Michelle won $10.00 in the raffle.
