Sunrise Rotary

beep..Beep..BEEP... this was the sound of my alarm this morning at 6:15 am. It was time to get up and get ready for our presentation with Sunrise Rotary. After introductions it was time for Dana and I to stand up and tell them what we are doing, hoping that it would move them enough to sponsor our cause.  

We described to the Rotary that we are a dedicated, motivated, and focused team looking to raise funds and awareness for the Red Cross. Being the community-service caring organization that they are, they were receptive, supportive, and interested in helping us connect with Rotary Clubs along the way. It was suggested that we could give similar presentations to other clubs to ask them for their support as well. 

Afterward we chatted it up with a few of the members as they shared wise words being experience paddlers. They all wished us luck on our upcoming adventure.

Thanks for your help, Chippewa County Rotary Club!
