After President “Awesome” Allison Beers called the meeting to order and Homer Nye had us all reflecting on the warmth and light of the beautiful day before us, Al Bonney and the Kingsley Trio brought us all down home with the classic John Denver tune, “Take Me Home, Country Roads.” A great way to start the afternoon’s meeting.
Ken Musson introduced us to our guests and out of town visitors, and Autumn Soltysiak introduced a lovely young man, Kane Williams – this week’s Outstanding Student.
Some announcements:
  • Rotary Show Ad Sales are closing! Thursday is the drop-deadline at 5:00 pm. Get your ad forms and copy in by then. We still have $12,000 to go!!!
  • Connor Miller is marshaling the March Madness Bracket madness for the club. It’s a public bracket and you should receive an email from Kathy about signing up if interested.
  • Hailey Kempf from the Youth Exchange program, who will be heading off to Germany later this year, announced that tickets are now on sale for the International Dinner at the Boathouse coming up in April to raise funds to help the students financially. Tickets once again are $50 each.
  • Carla Weaver reminded everyone to buy those tickets for the Rotary show before they are gone…get ‘em now, while they’re hot!
