Dear Dr. Sheehy & the Redondo Beach Rotary Club.
Thank you so much for the wonderful award given to me. I purchased a cute lamp for my room and a long gray scarf with my gift certificate to Target. Both my dad and my grandparents greatly enjoyed their visit (with your club). I can't wait to get to high school and am looking forward to joining the Interact Club. Thank you again.
