Pat Grady gave donations from the Birmingham Rotary Endowment Foundation to the representatives of Bound Together, YMCA and TCH. YMCA funds were needed to send a number of kids to camp and about a dozen of them came on stage to thank us. A rousing rendition of Smile was sung by the club and did exactly that. 
William (Bill) Seklar indicated that he was submitting an application for membership, which received a round of applause and the assumption that we would be fed Steak or Lobster every Monday

Steven Volk gave a summary of the accomplishments the club achieved during his presidency, quite impressive.  Thank you Steve.
