I hope everyone had a great Father's Day, and thank you to all who came last week for the membership meeting! We had a really good turnout. Other than the last-minute table change (Angelo's had a bigger party wanting the back room), everything went smoothly.
Special thanks to Viv Ann Blair, who ordered the pizzas, set up the room with Rotary literature, and brought the American flag (it has been weeks since we had one!). Thank you, Dan Morales, for creating the invitations and recruiting the amazing Paul Geisel to speak. He was the perfect person to relay the huge impact Rotary has for less fortunate people around the world.
It was an honor to have Jim Quick hold the flag for us as we recited the Pledge of Allegiance. He also presented the banner from the Rotary Club of Hamilton in New York and a $1,000 check to the Rotary Foundation. That was a wonderful surprise. Jim's commitment to the Rotary Foundation each year is astounding. We may be a small club, but we are mighty because we have members like Jim.
This Wednesday will be the changeover dinner. We're keeping it casual at Angelo's, and everyone is invited. Lets take this time to reflect on the resilience the club displayed through our tribulations this year and celebrate the potential we have to be bigger and better next year.
Keep the celebrations rolling because Peter Scott's installation dinner is this Friday at Rolling Hill Country Club, 401 E. Lamar Blvd. Buy tickets here.
Of the things we think, say or do …
1. Is it the truth?
2. Is it fair to all concerned?
3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
