The fundraiser raffle for four nights at the North Face Lodge in Lake City, Colorado is....
 
Lindsey Kroll.  Lindsey spends a lot of time in Colorado and has been to this lodge several times.  He was already booked for the summer, but now will have four nights complementary as he generously supported the second puzzle piece fundraiser of the Rotary e-Club of Houston.  He is a Rotarian in the Rotary Club of Memorial-Spring Branch in District 5890.  
 
This fundraiser brought in $625.  This helps, but we are an ambitious group of Rotarians and want to do more in our communities at home and abroad.  We need more involvement from our members to sell tickets to bring in money to support our projects.  Service projects are the "heart and soul" of Rotary and often the reward for joining our club.  It just feels good to know that you have made a difference in the quality of life for others.    Everyone can help us with online projects.  However, our most successful fundraiser was the House Concert which brought in more than $1,000.  This, however, limits involvement to those who reside in Houston.  We have ideas for future fundraising and need a few volunteers to "Lead the Way" (the Rotary International theme of 2006-2007).  This year's Rotary International theme is "Be the Inspiration".    These Rotary themes give us a motto to drive us to do more as Rotarians each year.
