Let's check in with what Chakra has been doing in Nepal. I hope he will be booked to speak at one of our meetings.

Here Chakra is presenting our cheque to the club president
and here the club president is handing it to the club treasurer.
Imagine the children whose lives this project will impact!
Chakra also sent this beautiful photograph of the Himalayas as he was flying from Dhangadhi back to Kathmandu.
It will be interesting to hear from Chakra about whether our cheque was easy to cash and whether there was much loss on the exchange and the cost of cashing the cheque. Bob is looking into how people who want to donate personally can receive tax receipts from us. At this point we aren't set up as a Foundation so we can't issue them but perhaps the District or the Estevan Club (which has an established Foundation) could issue them on our behalf. We'll keep you posted.
Guest speaker at our meeting last week was Jennifer Kuchinka.
Emilie attended with her new host mom Nancy Molder.
Deana and Mal shared some laughs.
While Duane Schultz, Esquire, kept his audience captivated.
Grant M. learned that his practical jokes on Judi just don't match the ones her sister plays on her!
