Mr. Joe Smith.
The National City Rotary Club is requesting the use of the South
Hall in the Martin Luther King Community Center, for our
weekly luncheon meetings. We were using the South Hall when I
joined the Rotary Club in 1999, and I believe we left in 2010.
Except for holidays, the Club will meet every Tuesday, from
noon till 1:30pm. The average number of members that meet on
any given Tuesday is approximately 12-15.
As you know we are a service organization that raises money
to give back to the community. The following is a synopsis of
our projects during the past Rotary year.
-Provide $4000 to the National City Police Department for their
Back to School Supplies Program for the ten Elementary Schools
in National City.
- Provided $560 for Miss National City to compete in the Miss San
Diego Pageant.
- Provided $600 for Sponsorship of the Miss National City
Educational Pageant.
- Provided $150 to an adopted family for Thanksgiving.
- Provided $ 500 to the Boy Scouts participating in our American
Flag Project with the Mile of Cars.
- Provided $140 for the purchase of Christmas trees for the
Wounded Warriors Program.
-Provided twelve bikes and helmets for the National City Middle
School Awards Ceremony.
-Provided a $1000 scholarship to Sweetwater High School
MCJROTC Program.
The Rotary Club also participated in Christmas in July
Program, and supported the Annual National City American
Cancer Society Relay for Life event.
The Rotary Club, also requests a waiver of funds to use the
South Hall. The annual savings of $1200 would be used to
enhance our community outreach programs.
Favorable consideration of the use of the Martin Luther King
Community Center, South Hall, and the waiver of rental fees
would be appreciated.
