Stu Scott was named Rotarian of the month.  Thank you Stu and Bonnie for always being there to help and doing more than you are asked to do.  Stu is a member of the board and also helps with new members.  He and his wife always open up their home and they have provided us with 3 "Rotary to work days" this year instead of just one. He volunteers to deliver the benches along with other members.  We are proud to have him as an member.  He exemplifies what it is to be an El Cajon Rotarian.  El Cajon Rotarians do not say "it has to be done this way because that is how it has always been done like that", instead they look outside the box.
 
Jim provided us with a donation in celebration fo his Rotary Anniversary.
