ROTARY'S SAIL FOR A CAUSE SEPT 16 2012
SAIL FOR A CAUSE WITH ROTARY
Join your friends from the Rotary Club of Concord on a two-hour sunset cruise aboard the beautiful 65-foot schooner Thomas E. Lannon out of Gloucester Harbor. An evening to benefit the Rotary Club of Concord’s international humanitarian outreach, the event offers guests a taste of what it was like to sail on a fishing schooner a hundred years ago. Help the crew raise the sails, or just sit back and take in the sights and sounds of Gloucester’s coastline. Nibble on hors d’oeuvres, sip wine, laugh, and celebrate the fellowship of Rotary. Sunday, Sept 16, 5 until 7 p.m. Come early to board at the Seven Seas Wharf at the Gloucester House Restaurant, 63 rear Rogers Street (Route 127) Gloucester. Tickets are $100 per person and available from Roger Fritz, rfritz@kwhsaved.com, or from your Rotarian friends.
As part of a global network of community volunteers, the Rotary Club of Concord focuses on giving back to our community, both here and abroad. Concord’s recent international projects include providing technology tools and know-how to three schools in Haiti, purchasing a bus for special needs students in Haiti, supporting cleft palate surgery in Central and South America through the Global Smile Foundation, providing earthquake response to Japan, supporting a school for hearing impaired in India, giving educational help to girls in Cambodia through the Sharing Foundation, providing support to Gift of Life International for open heart surgery in Central America, participating in a literacy project in the Philippines, and sponsoring events to further polio eradication in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Nigeria.
The Rotary Club of Concord is a great group of over 70 members, men and women. The Club holds two meetings each week…breakfast on Tuesdays from 7:30 until 8:15 AM and lunch on Thursdays from 12:15 until 1:30 PM. Both are held at the Colonial Inn in Concord. You are invited to attend a meeting. With interesting speakers and an energized group every week, you will come away inspired. 
And do join us for the Sunset Sail for Rotary’s International Outreach.
