Angels Tree Ministry Camp
This camp is located in Southern California near Hemet. The mission of the camp is to help children that currently have a parent in prison. Since 2005 it has helped over 300 children. The program helps redirect children's lives so that they hopefully won't follow the same path. After an update by representative Kathy Holst, our club proudly gave her a check for $1,000 to help fund the project.
New Member Induction: Dr. Peter Kang
At this very special club meeting, Mark Jackson had the honor of welcoming the newest member to our Rotary family. Peter comes to us from Louisiana, where he served as a prison Chaplain. He and his wife moved to Santa Maria to become the Priest in Charge of the St. Peter's Episcopal Church located in the heart of Santa Maria. Peter also informed us that they are expecting their first child this September (Congratulations!). Welcome Peter, we are so happy to have you with us!
. That was worth $50
). Since 1984 the club has grown to be the largest Rotary Club in Santa Maria. Our annual Barn Party Luau will once again be happening in the next few weeks (May 11). Jerry Walsh spoke about during the beginning stage of this event, only two people showed up as guests. Needless to say, the members bought quite a few things that year. After the panel was allowed to share their memories, a question and answer period followed.
