Covid-19
No in-person events but
Twin Bridges carries on
In light of recent news and events regarding Covid-19 (Coronavirus), the Board of Directors of Twin Bridges Rotary has regretfully decided to cancel several in-person events coming up in the near future.
However, the Club is holding members-only meetings via video conference and members are still helping to support the work of organizations such as CAPTAIN Community Human Services and To Love A Child and projects such as Bountiful Backpacks (see article below). In addition, planning is going on concerning events later in the year such as the Changeover Dinner, Karaoke Night, Spirit of Thanksgiving and Breakfast With Santa and Mrs. Claus.
Unfortunately, cancelled events include the very popular Breakfast With The Easter Bunny which was scheduled for April 11. Also cancelled was a Bake Sale set for April and luncheon and evening meetings in March and April. The Board will continue to reevaluate the situation and make announcements as appropriate.
