Members of the club assembled and distributed extra food bags for 300 needy families through North Marin Community Services. The bags contained Thanksgiving goodies including stuffing mix, canned ham, green beans, cranberry sauce and much more. This was in addition to the weekly food distribution at NMCS. The club donated $5,000 for the program--which has been part of our community outreach for several years. Happy Thanksgiving indeed!

Rotary Club of Ignacio provided new reading glasses to the Marin Health and Human Services "Seeds of Hope" event. The Rotarians were part of nearly 15 groups which provided services and support to people in need. A steady stream of clients attested to the desire for these glasses and many smiling faces were proof that a need was being met.
Phase II of the Pacheco Valley Pollinator Garden got underway on Friday with a group from RCI putting down lots of straw to serve as the base for planting later this fall. The success of the first phase is evidenced with healthy plants and even some Monarch Butterflies being observed. Supported by Marin County Parks employees, this new phase will be equal in size to it's predecessor. Weather was perfect and the work was completed just in time for some rain to settle the base level. An excellent project supported by both RCI volunteers and funds from the club.
The Rotary Club of Ignacio presented a check for $14,700 to the City of

RCI was treated to a real example of the Magic of Rotary when nationally known magician Ken Garr performed for the club. Ken amazed us with card tricks, sleight of hand with ropes and balls and "plain" paper. Also plenty of comedy as well. A good time was had by all.
