During his business years Dale was an active Kiwanian and in Sun Lakes, he was invited by Rotarian Bob Murray to join Sun Lakes Rotary Club. He has enjoyed being both a Kiwanian and now Rotarian which has allowed him to become involved in both Chandler And Sun Lakes communities volunteering for local projects, meeting new people and making long time Rotary friends. Yes, I’m a proud Rotarian!!!
