A couple weeks ago, I was invited by R.C. Valencia-Cid to Rotary Valencia's "Cena y desfile a beneficio de LORCA." In May 2011 the city of Lorca (which is located in the Comunitat Valenciana) suffered a 5.1 magnitude earthquake, which damaged many public buildings, homes, and the historic center. The event was organized by Rotary Club Valencia but members from all of the Rotary Clubs, as well as their friends, attended the event to support the cause.
At the event, we ate dinner and then there was a "fashion show" of winter coats (all of very high quality I'm sure but a bit disturbing to me as an American to see so much animal fur). All in all, it was a very pleasant evening and it was very nice to see the Rotarians very active and supportive of a local cause.
