For 48 years, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Northland has adapted to meet the needs of our region's youth. This dynamic and mission-driven organization has expanded to meet the increasing needs of children who are 6 to 18 years of age. Join us and hear from the club's talented and inspirational leader. Todd Johnson will share the compelling story of an organization that has consistently extended itself to rise up and meet multiple challenges within our beloved region. ![]() ![]() ![]() Photos: Courtesy of Boys and Girls Website |


Over the past 3 months, our counterpart organization Mano a Mano Bolivia has completed 3 new clinic projects:
- a new clinic in Jatun Mayu (our 163rd clinic project in Bolivia)
- a clinic expansion in Candelaria (our 164th clinic project)
- a new clinic in Villa Rosario (our 165th clinic project)
The Jatun Mayu clinic was a collaboration with the local municipality and community, Mano a Mano, and a number of Rotary Clubs in the Upper Midwest (you can see a full list of Rotary Clubs here).
The projects in Candelaria and Villa Rosario were a collaboration with the local municipalities and communities, Mano a Mano, and Medical Educators for Latin America (MELA).

Mano a Mano’s Clinic Program
With the new clinics, medical professionals working in the community will have a much more comfortable working environment (which is very important for retaining staff in isolated rural communities), and community residents will have regular access to quality health care services provided through the Bolivian Health Ministry.
Our clinic program’s approach is that health outcomes can be dramatically improved with simple yet effective interventions, beginning with the basic ability to consistently access quality services in their own communities. As a Mano a Mano clinic, it will have Volunteer Health Promoter Training and Continuing Health Education workshops provided through our counterpart organization Mano a Mano Bolivia; it will also receive equipment and supplies to ensure that it is fully-furnished, and is connected with Mano a Mano Bolivia medical staff via radio for help with any difficult cases or issues.

Although the sign-ups are looking great, there are still more openings to fill. THE DOCK NEEDS HELP! This is a task for people who love the outdoors and can kneel down comfortably to hold the boat for paddlers to safely enter and exit the boat. Do you want to be where the action is? This is it! Need a sitting position? Check out the REGISTRATION TENT. There are also positions in the beer tent. We will find a spot to meet your needs. If you hear of someone who is not receiving this communication let me know so I can fix the issue. Thank you. | |
