Counting Kudos

Malta Sunrise member Miles Cornthwaite, proprietor of Spa Cleaners in Ballston Spa, was our expert speaker Thursday. Miles, who has a dry sense of humor, spoke about cleaning both dry and wet.

That evening, at the Rotary Foundation dinner in Saratoga National Golf Club, Malta Sunrise was one of 11 local clubs honored by District 7190 for getting
"Every Rotarian, Every Year" to participate in funding the Foundation (which gets high ratings from Charity Navigator). Good work by our Foundation chairman, Al Schmidt, who was in attendance with his wife, President Arlene Schmidt.

In other news, it was announced that this fall's Saratoga Showcase of Homes, in which several club members participated as volunteers, raised $46,500 for Rebuilding Together Saratoga County, and $23,500 for Habitat for Humanity.

No meeting this coming Thursday, which is Thanksgiving. We resume the next week. And don't forget that members and friends are welcome to attend our holiday party at 6 p.m. Dec. 14 at Andy's Adirondack Grille, on the west side of Route 9, south of Northway Exit 13.
