The Friendly Breakfast Club

Your Top Three To Do's
As the Magical New Year of Rotary Approaches

Fourth of July - and its fine Dunwoody Family of Rotary tradition - is on the top of our minds. Think about:

1. Joining the float building party this Sunday, June 30
2. Baking cookies, brownies, etc. - and packaging them in snack bags of two - for sale at our July 4 hot dog stand
3. How you 'd like to participate on the 4th ... as a parade walker (contact Denise) or at the hot dog stand (contact Paula), and whether you might have a small propane tank Ed Holliday could borrow to fire up the hot dog grill. 

All the details follow ... read on!

Experience the Craft of Float Building - June 30

We have experts - and you're invited join in the fun! The photo here shows careful crafting of our 25th anniversary float.

Join us at Alison Norris's home to experience a long-practiced Dunwoody art form ... the ability to build a float that tells our story while enjoying food, fellowship and even a beverage! It's really a float-building party ... and many hands will make quick work of it. Bring your favorite beverage (BYOB) and a side dish to share. Plan to come together to decorate and enjoy a cookout afterward.

Here are the details for our float-building extravaganza:

• Date: Sunday, June 30
• Time: 5:30 PM
• Location: Alison Norris's Home, Maxstoke Manor, 5431 Trowbridge Drive, Dunwoody, Georgia 30338
• Bring your favorite beverage (BYOB) and a side dish to share. Let's come together to decorate and enjoy a cookout afterward!
