A great time was had by all at the club’s annual Halloween Party! We do know how to have a good time!!
 
It’s not every day you get to attend a play with two members of your Rotary Club in the cast! Last night club members had a nice dinner at Monty’s in Woodland Hills before attending opening night for Things My Mother Taught Me at the Charles Stewart Howard Theatre! Club member Vsev and our Club President Lynette starred in this hilarious show about adult children and their meddling parents. The whole cast was amazing but we were especially proud of our club members!!
 
 
 

 
 
Some of our followers will remember our wine tasting fundraiser for the student pantry at LA Valley College, well this last Thursday we were able to present a check for $1000 to the LAVC Foundation and spend some time working in the pantry. So many students lack housing and are food insecure. So proud to be a small part of the solution!!
 
On October 7th, some of our members volunteered at Thank A Soldier packing boxes for our military serving overseas. Always happy to send some love to our deployed military personnel!
 
Some members of our club drove out to the Sagebrush Cantina for a fundraiser for the Rotary Clubs in Maui hosted by the Rotary Club of Calabasas. It was a fabulous event for a great cause!! Congratulations Calabasas!!!!
 
September 26th was a very busy meeting! The club was proud to present a check to our very own Interact member Noah who is completing his Eagle Project for Boy Scout Troop 18. He is refurbishing the Drama Department at Burroughs HS. The club also collected and donated bags of sweaters, jackets, and socks to be donated to  LAUSD students and families. In addition, we donated wax lips for the Kids Community Dental Clinic Trunk or Treat event, which is sadly the same night as our club Halloween party! On the 29th, several members were up early to volunteer at the VFW Golf Tournament and on Sunday we were proud to be one of the sponsors of the Empty Bowl Fundraiser for Home Again LA! Did I mention we’re a busy club?
 
Each year in honor of International Peace Day, our club adopts and assists families transitioning into housing from homelessness with Home Again LA. We fulfill the needs of these families with something we call Smile Bags. We delivered those bags to our families on September 30th. These families are truly champions!!
 

 
September is a busy month for Burbank Sunrise, but all work and no play makes for a very dull club. With that in mind, several members spent a week at an all inclusive in Cabo. We had bid on it at a fundraiser for Home Again LA. We had a great week of fellowship.
 
Rush day for our Interact Club at John Burroughs HS! Going to have a great group of young people!!
 
Burbank Sunrise hosted a wine tasting fundraiser at Vendome Liquors on Riverside last night! There was food, opportunity drawings, and good fellowship. We were raising money for food insecure students at LA Valley College. Hector and Jimmy led us thru 3 flights of wine and a blind tasting, which was won by our very own Lee Stacy who correctly guessed the grape, country of origin, and the year!!
 
Our club entered our first ever boat into the Cardboard Boat Race at the District 5280 picnic held at Seaside Lagoon in Redondo Beach. We also entered the chili cook off! Ok so maybe we didn’t win the race or the cook off but we had an amazing time and our boat didn’t sink!!!

Rotarians from Burbank Noon, Burbank Sunrise, and Glendale Sunrise volunteered to assist Home Again LA with a food distribution event at Izay Park this morning. Almost 250 cars came through and received bags of food. So grateful to have been part of this event providing food to folks who need it. Kudos to Home Again LA for coordinating the event which was funded by a grant from the Southern California Gas Company. Grocery bags were provided by Gain Federal Credit Union.
