1500 International Pkwy.
Richardson, TX 75081
 
The RERC's regular Wednesday meeting was energized by a presentation from Ally Haynes-Hamblen, who provided an exciting look at the upcoming season's packed schedule at Richardson's renowned Eisemann Center.
Phase 3 - This August, our club is working with Laura Small (Manager, Behavioral Health & Addiction Recovery, Methodist Richardson Medical Center Campus for Continuing Care) to revitalize their dated courtyard, a project made possible by a District 5810 Rotary grant.

This space is a crucial oasis for patients. Over three separate Saturdays, we'll perform hands-on work to transform it. Our tasks include re-roofing and staining the gazebo, revitalizing the plants, and renewing the overall space. These efforts will create a more peaceful and welcoming environment, offering patients a much-needed break from the hospital setting.
September Happy Hour - Membership!
Our September Happy Hour this month will be on Wednesday, September 10th at Oak Highlands Brewery in Richardson from 5:00-7:00pm.
 
Bring a potential new member so they can learn more about our Rotary family!
 
 
 
 
North Texas Giving Day is coming up on Thursday, September 18th. Tell your friends and family to check out the Richardson East Rotary Foundation. We will be raising funds for the construction of Annie's Place, a beautiful pavilion that will compliment the Inclusive Playground at Cottonwood Park in Richardson.
 
Our goal is to raise $30,000 on North Texas Giving Day. To help us reach that goal, there is a matching gift of $15,000.
 
Next Saturday, August 30th, the Carter Blood Care Blood Drive will take place. You ca sign up with the QR code above.
 
I know this will be a busy day, including our courtyard project in the morning, but please consider donating.  You will be saving a life!
