Our local Rotary Club sends along good news about the results of their San Juan Concours event, held this past August.

The Rotary Club of San Juan Islands recently presented checks to the recipients of net proceeds from the 14th Annual San Juan Concours, held on Aug. 14 at San Juan Vineyard. This event was co-sponsored by the Sports Car Club of San Juan Islands.

Three organizations — Joyce L. Sobel Family Resource Center, Family Umbrella Group, and Medical Teams International’s Mobile Dental Van program — each received $5,000. PolioPlus Fund of Rotary International received $1,000. This year was Rotary’s most successful fundraising event.

Over the past 14 years, the generosity of our sponsors has allowed us to donate over $100,000 to many local charities and Rotary’s worldwide effort to eliminate Polio.

You can support the San Juan Update by doing business with our loyal advertisers, and by making a one-time contribution or a recurring donation.
