A message from last week's speaker Shirley Hu:
It was such a pleasure speaking at your club this morning. Thanks again for the invitation!
 
As discussed, there is a special Shen Yun promotion for Rotarians as shown below. Would you please share them with the rest of the club members? Thanks!
 
a. A promotion code of “ROTARY5810” has been created to waive the ticketing fee and facility fee (which is about $7.50 per ticket).
 
 
b. 10% of the total net price paid by District 5810 Rotarians will be donated back to District 5810 by the local Shen Yun presenter for projects such as disasters relief and/or ‘end polio now’.
 
The code ROTARY5810 is used to calculate the 10%. Please request fellow Rotarians to restrict its use for Rotarians only.
 
In addition, when purchase Shen Yun tickets, it is critical to use the official site. There are quite a few websites selling Shen Yun tickets by raising the price, then offer big discounts, but it is still a lot more expensive than Shen Yun’s official site.
 
Please inform your club members to use the following site, and note that these discount codes are only available at this official site.
