Port Isabel Rotary is working hard to establish at new satellite club in Los Fresnos.  With some names received from Governor Andy and our own club members,  we have the nucleus to get started.  We have been meeting at 7:15 am on Thursdays at Julia's Restaurant on Texas 100 in Los Fresnos.  It is an ideal location.  We have met at least four times and each time we add new prospects.  This is an excited and energetic group which includes a couple of former Rotarians, one even a past member of a club in Taiwan.  They are already discussing service projects to benefit the high school and the community.  
 
First Responders 5K & 10K Run and One Mile Walk will be held on Saturday, September 8 at Clayton's Bar on South Padre Island.  This will be our second annual event held for the benefit of the first responders (Fire, Police, and EMT).  We have established an endowment fund to help those men and women who put their lives on the line for us.  We sell sponsorships and charge a small entry fee for the runners.  If the tide is low we can run along the beach, but if it is high tide then we run along Gulf Boulevard.   
 
Be The Inspiration!
