DEAR ABBY: How do I politely tell people I don’t like having anyone visit me in my home? My home is my safe haven. The energy of the outside world drains me, and I don’t want that feeling inside my home.

Sisters Club: Boot Out Ceremony, Bed Builds, and Central Oregon Hospitality District Governor Chris Waugh visited the Sisters Club on Tuesday, June 16th. The club met at noon, but this was no ordinary meeting. It was their annual boot out ceremony and pot luck. Current President Jim Lanzarotta was booted out by IPP Sandy to make room for President-Elect Judy Corwin as the 2026-27 president. The term boot out is used instead of gavel-passing. It is uniquely Sisters and a lot of fun. Jim took possession of the traveling trophy, with his name placed alongside all past presidents. This growing club has many service projects. One that stood out is their Bed Build program, done in partnership with Kiwanis and Sleep in Heavenly Peace. This year, the club built and delivered 35 beds, each with a handmade quilt on top. PE Judy Corwin, IPP Sandy Reilly, President Jim Lanzarotta, and Past President Bill Kelly accepted the club's custom project sign. It was a lovely Central Oregon afternoon with Sisters Rotarians. Friends, family, and celebration filled the gathering. The club cooked up salmon and tri-tip, with appetizers, sides, and desserts making a scrumptious meal. The Sisters Club sends greetings to everyone in District 5110. #Rotary #SistersClub #BootOutCeremony #BedBuild #SleepInHeavenlyPeace #District5110Watch video on Facebook.com
