Programs: 
Fellowship at Avogadro's from 5 to 7 PM
If you go to the Lincoln Center this Wednesday, July 31st, you will be very lonely! President David Dunne and the Fellowship Committee are taking advantage of the 5th Wednesday in July by inviting everyone to a no-host Fellowship event at Avogadro’s Number, 605 S Mason St, Fort Collins.  5PM till 7PM. No cost to attend but food and drink are on your own.  Live music on the patio. Please bring your significant other, children, friends, etc.  All are welcome.  Perhaps a friend who would make a great Rotarian!

RECAP: Realities for Children
Craig Secher, founder and executive director of Realities for Children, gave our in-person meeting a brief overview of the background, goals, and accomplishments of his charity that is focused on children, especially in Larimer County, who have been abused, neglected, or otherwise at-risk.  Mr. Secher and his wife formed the organization in 1995 after many years in governmental organizations like Child Protection Services in Larimer County.  Their mission is to meet the un-met needs of children in emergency services and healing-support in our community.
