On Saturday, Feb. 22, the Rotary Club of Los Alamos held its fifth annual Crabfest. As you may have seen in the media, it broke all records for both attendance and the amount of money raised to support Rotary’s many projects, both local and international.
As president of the Rotary Club of Los Alamos, I simply want to say thank you. Thank you to a community that is compassionate and fun loving. Thank you to the many sponsors and to the contributors to the silent and live auction participants who were generous beyond measure. Thank you to the members of the Rotary Club who came together to make this the smashing success it was. And thank you to all of you.
Particular thanks to Melissa Paternoster and her crew at the Blue Window Bistro who prepared the feast. Absolutely delicious. Thank you to the Los Alamos High School National Honor Society members who came and served the feast. They were delightful and fantastic and by the end of the evening I’m sure they were utterly exhausted.
I have never lived in a community that was so giving and supportive of all of its service organizations. We recognize that there are so many good causes to contribute to in the community and we are deeply grateful that the Rotary Club of Los Alamos is one of the beneficiaries of your largesse. Thank you.
