LV Express Supplement - "10 Years and Counting"
This 28 page insert from the 29 April Express celebrated the success of local businesses and community entities.
Groups had the opportunity to highlight their accomplishments across 10, 20+, 40+, 50+, 60+, 70+ and even 100+ years.
Clearly the highlight was the half page promotion on Page 25 featuring the Rotary Club of Moe.
Good for you if you saw it last week.
If not, sort through your old newspapers, dig it out, and enjoy the various articles.
I'm sure that Maureen would appreciate your feedback. You may recall that we chose this option as a means of promoting Rotary together with pushing the value of membership.
