Hello from the Omaha West Rotary Office
 Dear West Rotarians-
 
I am pleased to be working with you on an interim basis over the summer.  I know many of you from District and Metro events and your visits to Suburban. I look forward to getting to know the rest of you and your club.  Thank you for your patience as I learn the ropes for West Rotary.  Please don't hesitate to give suggestions or ask questions.  You can reach me at jennifer@omahawestrotary.org or 402-937-8654.  Mail to West Rotary should be directed to 4089 South 84th St. PMB 317, Omaha, NE 68127.  See you Friday!

SKINNER SKYHAWK AWARDS
           
DEVIN HOLMON 
 
MILETH FUERTES-NARCISO
 
Congratulations to Devin Holmon and Mileth Fuertes-Narciso, both are 5th grade students at the Skinner Magnet Center Elementary School. The students have excelled in their schoolwork, taken advantage of educational opportunities offered at Skinner, and have been positive role models for others at school. The student's parents and other family members joined Rotarians as these outstanding 5th graders were recognized for their achievements. Principal, Mrs. Tarina-Cox, spoke about the students as well as Skinner Magnet Center updates. Librarian, Bobbie Martinie, attended the program and was thanked for her assistance in the club's Rotary Readers project at the school.
CONGRATULATIONS!
Congratulations to Jim Gerner, the winner of the weekly game drawing! Jim won half of $324 by drawing the Ace of Hearts at Rotary on May 5th.  The game started again last week, May 12th, with $15 dollars.  You can have a chance to draw the winning card, Ace of Hearts, by adding a dollar with your name or initials to money received for the weekly drawing. You also have a chance to win a free lunch if you draw a Joker. The other half of the funds received in the weekly drawing go to the West Omaha Rotary Foundation to support the projects and programs of the Foundation - Senior Recognition Day program, Skinner Skyhawk Awards program, Library books for the Skinner Library, Police-Fire Recognition, sponsor a student to attend RYLA, Rotary Youth Leadership Awards seminar, District Grants, Global Grants, and more.
 
Congratulations to Matt Molettiere who has received his permanent blue badge!
