Stroudsburgs Rotary
 
Congratulations to the Friends of Scouting on their successful dinner,
honoring ESU President Long, and Mr. Planer. We had a Rotary table and
Ed put in a wonderful ad for Rotary.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day filled with love and relaxation.

ROTARY THEME - May - Youth Services Month
National Theme - Mental Health Awareness Month
 
I had the opportunity to go with my daughter to Rebel stages on Mother's Day and see the musical "Next To Normal". It was a cute little theater no stage, but the performers put on a powerful, fabulous musical about a "mother who struggles with worsening bipolar disorder and the effects that managing her illness has on her family." Wikipedia
I'm sure it was not a coincidence the performance was during Mental Health Awareness month.
