A beautiful day in Northern Michigan as we picnicked amid the trees of NMC. Sunny, warm and a light breeze under the tent as President John Racine brought us to order. Here are the shortened administrative order for the day:
- There was a moment of silence to remember long time Rotarian Ted Bagley on his passing.
- Christopher Cox led the invocation.
- Marsha Minervini led the singing acknowledging the beauty of where we were Tuesday with the Woody Guthrie “This Land is Your Land.”
- Ken Weaver introduced our visiting Rotarians and guests.
- Autumn Soltysiak introduced NMC students of the week: Alexandra Briggs and Emily Martin, both well accomplished as they pursue their college careers.
- Mike Meindertsma reminded all of the Golf Outing on Monday, August 14th. You can sign up for Golf ($60 for the round for non TCG&CC members) or Pickleball ($10 for non TCG&CC members) that day, with social playtime at the 19th Hole after the earlier playtime.
- Cindy Ruzak is in need of volunteers for the Discovery Center at Harbor Day in Elk Rapids.
- President John also asked us to act up, as there hasn’t been a smart pill awarded in some time. Apparently, we are a very well-behaved club!
- The 50/50 was not held Tuesday.
- Thanks went out to the NMC Foundation staff and Resource Development staff and those who made us feel welcome and well fed at our mini BBQ! Bravo and Brava!
