Hello everyone! It’s that time of the month again… TIME FOR A NIGHT HIKE!
This month we’re going to have a nice & easy moonlight stroll along Carpinteria Bluffs on TUESDAY, AUGUST 24, 2010.
We’ll be meeting at the Starbucks parking lot on Old Coast Road at 7:30 to carpool to the bluffs. Feel free to bring friends, dogs, and BEVERAGES & SNACKS. We’d like to make a bit of a social event of it as our energies won’t be consumed by trekking up mountains, etc. so please bring your favorite beverage and cookies, cheese, crackers as desired– it should be a beautiful night!
Please RSVP to cmgustason@gmail.com or reach me at (661) 332-7741 so we know who to expect. See you there!

Rotaract: It’s Cool Here.
Rotaract Travel Weeks will take place all over Europe between August 1 and 15, 2010. During this time, Rotaractors will travel within Europe.
You want to travel?
Step 1) Look at participating countries and pick the country you would like to visit.
List of countries: http://www.facebook.com/l/f4f4f;www.rotaract-travel-weeks.org/regions/europe/
Step 2) Go to the Facebook Event Page of the country you select. You can find it on the country list above.
Step 3) Post a comment to the Facebook Event page indicating that you are interested in visiting the country.
For example:
Request: Berlin, Hamburg, Northern Germany
Me and my friend from the Rotaract Club of Firence would like to visit the north of Germany. We´d like to travel to Berlin, Hamburg and maybe some other nice places which you can recommend. Is there anybody from this area? Are there any Rotaract clubs in these cities?
Step 4) When somebody answers you can send him or her a message and discuss the details. When exactly are you planning to arrive? How long would you stay? Are there Rotaractors who are able to host you? etc.
It’s that simple! You pay your travel expenses, and make international friends! You may find someone willing to let you stay with them for free, or, at the very least, get recommendations about great spots to see, eat and explore.
Join fellow Rotaract members at Zodo’s Bowling and Beyond Friday, March 26 at 7 pm. Don’t forget to bring some friends!
You may not recognize all the faces in the photo above. That’s because some of them are members of the Rotaract Club of San Luis Obispo, our neighbors to the north.
They’ve been doing great stuff for years under the leadership of Founding President Dominic Tartaglia. Now, the club celebrates its official charter.
Up for a mini road trip? We’re invtied to attend the Charter Celebration on March 13 at 6 p.m. at the Tartaglia Ranch* in San Luis Obispo. Please RSVP to Holly Dragovich at hdragovich@gmail.com by March 6 to ensure that they have enough steak, salad, garlic bread, ranch beans and cake for everyone. This event is BYOB — bring your own beverage. Adults may bring adult beverages.
* Please ask Holly for the ranch address or Tara, Liz or David. Since this is a private home, we are not posting the address on the blog.
