The Wernicke Family recently returned from a wonderful trip to Europe, where they had the chance to reconnect with last year’s exchange student, Joan Gurrera, and his family in Mallorca. If you ever have the opportunity to visit, Mallorca is one of Europe’s most naturally stunning destinations as well as rich in culture and history. Since we were already making the journey across the Atlantic, we also explored Iceland, southern Spain, and Paris.

rotarylosalamos.org25.06 School’s Out!Greetings Rotarians and Friends, As the first week of summer vacation kicks off, there’s a renewed sense of energy in our community. School may be out, but Rotary is very much in session—and summer is a perfect time to reengage, recharge, and reconnect. We’re currently looking for members to step up as committee chairs for the coming year. If that feels like too big a commitment, don’t worry—we also welcome anyone who’d like to take the lead on just one event, whether it’s a service project, a social gathering, or inviting a guest speaker to an upcoming meeting.
