Our speaker for the May 16, meeting will be Patrick Ken Barry. Patrick is the head of the City Life Center located at 225 W. 5th Ave. in Gary. Some of you may remember the building as the YMCA and the Boys & Girls Club. The Center runs a variety of programs including after school tutoring, physical education, mentoring, parent involvement, and community based service projects. Bring a friend to the meeting to hear of this exciting new program in Gary.

The 26th/27th Annual Gallery Gallop will be held on Saturday, May 11, starting at the Lake St. Beach, in Marquette Park. The 8K run will commence at 6:00 PM but loads of help will be needed prior to the start. Volunteers will be needed at the registration table, as spotters on the route, and water dispensers on the beach. This is our annual fund raiser. Details will be available at our meeting. 
Gary Rotary Club along with St. Mary of the Lake Church conducted a workshop on healthy eating and some basics of gardening. Over a dozen people attended the April 6, event and learned the benefits of a healthy diet, along with learning how to start vegetables from seed. The event was partially funded with a grant from the Porter County Master Gardeners Association. Chairperson Dorreen Carey reported that some of the participants have reported success with plants coming up in the seed trays.
