Our History from1875-1929, presented by
Dan Ruminski Storyteller
Great Estates of Wickliffe
Dan Ruminski will present a fascinating story making the Cleveland connection, Euclid Avenue’s “Millionaire Row,” to the great movie, “The Kings Speech.” Journey from “Millionaires Row” to “ Millionaires Mile” in Wickliffe, to London, Paris, and ending in Hunting Valley. Hear how our main character, Laura Mae Corrigan, rose from poverty, entertaining royalty and fighting the Third Reich.
Enjoy a wonderful evening and support WRAP – Willoughby Rotary Autism Project.
The members of the Willoughby Rotary Club voted to make a difference in their community by helping families affected by Autism. The club was looking for a local need that they could support not only financially, but in other ways
as well. When Autism was suggested and mem-bers learned more about it, it became obvious that this was a project that every Rotarian could “wrap” their arms around.
Proceeds will provide iPads to autistic children to:•enhance communication•learn new skills•provide the means to have fun, be creative,
and feel good about themselves
Sponsorship details are included on the reverse side of this flyer, as well as on:www.willoughbyrotary.org/autism
