Hope everyone was able to drop off your Lucy Project sheets to the schools in your area. Jo had an exciting day on Thursday. Out of 7 school on her list, 1 you needed a pass word to get into the school grounds, so had to email their letter. Three schools have just given to other Rotary Clubs. One school is a call back to pick up goods later. 1 school offered 3 classrooms of desks and chairs that are being replaced, thank you very much. And one filled the car up with books & exercise books. Stopping to get groceries on the way home with name badge still in place. Friendly check out person asked, how’s your day been, still excited at this stage so explained, and Check out person replied, do you need more, because I have plenty of those things at home, please come and collect on Monday. Woohooo. What a lovely day.
Just a quick reminder here is the list again of what we are looking for.
