Hello Rotarians. Sorry for the late newsletter. 
 

This week, we’ll welcome Danielle Dulin, Manhattan City Manager, and Brian Johnson, the City’s Director of Public Works. They’ll discuss the proposed road tax and share other updates from the City of Manhattan. I hope you can join us for this timely conversation.

Planning is also underway for our new fundraiser, Manhattan’s Dancing with the Stars, on March 6, 2027. Five community leaders will take to the dance floor to raise money. Please save the date! Ticket sales and sponsorship opportunities will be announced soon.

District Conference is on October 23rd and 24th here in Manhattan
 
We are lucky to have the District Conference in Manhattan this year, and we will be joining with District 5680, so there will be even more Rotarians at this event.  Here is the link to sign up, and I hope to see you there.
