We were visited by Sam Thurston, president of the Hoquiam WA Rotary Club. Thank you for the club flag exchange.

We welcomed back previous member Toni Owan.

Rapid City Alternative Academy Principal Jessica Kanta and Sean Binder updated us on the Academy becoming a discovery school this year. This allows them to find unique pathways to graduation for unique student situations. They also are introducing a Rotary micro grants program. This allows students to apply for up to $1400 toward a need or project with 1 year impacts. This program teaches them grant writing, persuasive communication, project planning, presentation & interview skills.
