What We’ve Been Up To During COVID
We’ve been busy!!! We have been meeting regularly virtually and even attended the first ever virtual District Assembly training!! We have been supporting local organizations such as Family Promise and The Burbank Temporary Aid Center with donations of money and food, and DVDs for Kids Community Dental Clinic. We participated in a contactless food drive for BTAC, and supported Glendale Sunrise Rotary with a donation to feed the clients at Ascencia Homeless Center. We wrote letters of encouragement for seniors as part of care packages for those in senior living. 
 
Meetings Cancelled 
The Tuesday morning meetings of the Rotary Club of Burbank Sunrise have been cancelled thru the end of March in an abundance of caution due to the Coronavirus. The health and well being of our membership is of utmost importance. We will re-evaluate the first of April.
Vocational Scholarship Awarded
 
Congratulations to Halie Stewart, our 2019/2020 Vocational Scholarship Award winner. She is an Air Force Veteran attending the New York Film Academy in Burbank! Halie is originally from Pittsburg, Pennsylvania and her dream is to encourage young people through her work in film
Club Meeting Project 
At our regular meeting, we put together 150 dental kits for Kids Community Dental Clinic. The kits will be distributed at area schools when the Clinic does their Give Kids A Smile program. When they visit the schools, the kids are educated on the importance of good dental hygiene, given a free dental check-up, and a dental kit. If they child needs dental treatment, the clinic offers free or low cost dental services for children.
 
Missing Our Bob
Our club is mourning the passing of Bob Piatak. He was a Past President and the club’s Sergeant-At-Arms. Bob was always the first one to every meeting and set up our banners and greeted our guests. He sat in the same place every week ordering his favorite breakfast of pancakes. He made most every project and he and Janice were fixtures at our club socials. It was very sad to see his empty seat this past Tuesday. He was one of a kind and will be greatly missed.
 
It is the Truth!
We pass the 4-Way Test! Our newest member, Teresa Fulper, is also our newest Paul Harris Fellow!! 
 
Looking Back on a Busy December
Burbank Sunrise as always had a very busy December. We teamed up with Burbank Rotary for our annual BCR Holiday Party for developmentally challenged teens and adults. We also adopted families through the Coordinating Council of Burbank to provide them with presents, gift certificates, and holiday meals and then helped on delivery day. We even had time for a little club fellowship as we attended Nativity the Musical at Westminster Presbyterian Church. Afterwards the party continued at The Burbank Pub!
