Our Rotation Day on October 6th at the Boys & Girls Club of Santa Barbara was spectacular! Thanks to Carolyn, Elizabeth and the entire crew for such fantastic hospitality. (Pictures available at the Montecito Rotary web site). Several members had never had the opportunity to see the facilities and fully appreciate the scale of the operations at the Club and it was very illuminating.
Our speaker this week back at the Montecito Country Club will be Nola Stucky, the Founder and CEO of NS Ceramic, Inc. Based on Deborah Schwartz’s description of the breadth of Nola’s work it should be very interesting.
Very soon the GSE Team from Bangladesh will be here and details will be forthcoming soon.
