Katie Adamson Conservation Fund
The Katie Adamson Conservation Fund transcends the role of a typical endangered animal conservation organization.
Our core emphasis remains on safeguarding endangered animals. However, our approach involves a synergistic blend of elements such as youth education, fostering community sustainability, leveraging virtual reality technology for immersive education, and facilitating career advancement for individuals who are impassioned about the species we strive to aid.

A Message from Maren about the Golf Tournament
on July 13
Dear Rotarians,
We are SIXTY days out from the Andy Smith Sr Memorial Golf tournament. Here is how you can help:
** Find golfers! We have 26 registered folks and we are committed contractually to pay for 80 golfers. Spread the word or sign up to play yourself!
** Be a hole sponsor ($350) or donate any amount. Talk to friends and businesses and encourage them to donate. Besides our flagship sponsor, we have 3 hole sponsors and 1 donor to date.
** Buy a raffle ticket or five…each ticket is $20 and the winner receives half of the proceeds. So, if all the tickets sell, the winner will get $5,000. Tickets are available to purchase at both Buchanan Rec Center and Wulf Rec Center.
** Purchase some gift cards to donate! Tournament participants can win raffle prizes during lunch. These are small gift cards to restaurants and other businesses.
** Distribute print media! We have posters and pamphlets you can place at your church, local business, anywhere you can think of it that would put one on display.
This is a big job and takes all of us working ahead of time to be a success. It is very easy to sign up to golf or donate. And, golf is discounted until June 1st…

Be sure and sign up early and tell your golfing friends-
a rare opportunity to play the exclusive, beautiful and challenging Hiwan Country Club
Sponsorships still available!
