Service and Fellowship Opportunity
Help Us Welcome the World - GRSP Leadership Weekend - March 4-6
In just three weeks, we will welcome 38 students from the Georgia Rotary Student Program to the GRSP weekend that's been a signature tradition of the Rotary Club of Dunwoody for more than 20 years. We hope that you will take time to be part of it! It's a great opportunity to mingle with university students from 20 different countries who are spending a year studying in Georgia.
The weekend features a pizza, photo booth and music party on Friday, along with a service project to pack meals for Rise Against Hunger. We'll also offer a variety of workshops and speakers on Saturday, Saturday night suppers at the homes of Jennie Stipick, Carter Stout and Cathie Brumfield, and Atlanta Rotaract's own version of Shark Tank on Sunday morning. There's a role for anyone and everyone who wants to take part - from photography to food, set up and clean up, and just plain welcoming these amazing students. Many of you have already signed up to be host families for the weekend.
To learn more about the weekend and how you can help, join us on Zoom next Tuesday, February 15, at 7:00 pm - https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87579318386?pwd=Wmo3Wk9rRTRtWmJIdHF6YTM1UStRdz09 If you can't join us then, contact Ron Barden.
