Correction: 
The previous version of this bulletin contained a picture that was not Mike Litzau’s. That picture has now been replaced with the correct picture.
This Week we were joined by Michelle Rea-Meredith (previous Area 6 Governor) and Rebecca Jeffares who is our newly appointed Area 6 manager. 
Michelle introduced Rebecca as our new Governor and thanking us for being a Club that is on the move.  Rebecca is from Germany and will share time commitment to our Area 6 and her home country.  She gave us a warm introduction and welcome – we look forward to her leadership and will have her visit our club several times over the year.
 
Robert Balzano received a Paul Harris award due to his numerous contributions to our club. 
Rob drives some of our members to their medical appointments, serves on the club board, and volunteers for several club projects. Michael Gordon presented the award and we thanked Rob for his continued support of Broomfield Rotary.  The Paul Harris Fellow recognition acknowledges individuals who contribute, or who have contributions made in their name, of $1,000 or more to The Rotary Foundation.  Congratulations Rob!
 
Mike Litzau, from The Arvada Sunrise Rotary Club (ASR), presented the upcoming fundraiser Race 4 Rotary.  
This will be its 4th annual Race 4 Rotary on Sunday, August 20, 2023.  Each Rotary club in the District is invited to participate in this fun, fast-fast moving and exciting event at Podium Karting at US 36 and I-25 (www.podiumkarting.com).  A traveling trophy will be awarded to the club that is determined to be the 2023 Fastest in the District!  Also, first, second and third place plaques will be awarded to individuals based on fastest laps.
The event includes a BBQ meal buffet. In addition to the kart racing there is ping pong, pool and ax throwing. The cost is $75 for racers, $25 for spectators and a four pack of racers for $250. Details and registration are available at www.race4rotary.org.
