Good to see PP Paul back with Daisy of course
Guests this week were Ramin Ahmed and Alison Young 
Thank you to our new Chef Spencer for the great Breakfasts.
 
Thanks to Alan, Glen, Peter M, Dan G and Frank for cooking up a storm at Innervisions Summer BBQ.
 
 
Every year a group of men in recovery at InnerVisions give us a big hand at RibFest.  With gratitude our club BBQs lunch for the men - burgers and dogs and all the fixin's.
 
Well most of the fixin's.  Alan and Glen went shopping and their was a little bit of conflict as to whether onions were actually a necessary fixin'.   They peeled back the layers of that argument until finally cooler heads prevailed, and a coupe of Walla Wallas ended up in the cart. 
 
We had 2 dozen guys for lunch.  They went through 3 dozen dogs, 30 burgers, chips and ice cream.  Perfect weather and a great group.  Alan, Glen, Peter, Dan and Frank on the grill.
Thank you to Glen for the write-up

Town Hall meeting at Mossom Creek was very well done.  Thank you to President Susan and Mike C for all the work they did for this meeting.  19 members attended.  oops, no photos taken !!!!
 
Our favourite Guest Speakers are always our 'own' with Classification talks, and Monica Delgado de la Flor de Pierola did not disappoint us.
 
Monica gave her Classification talk today and although she said she was nervous you would never have known.  Monica had us all listening to her life story and laughing at all the wonderful & crazy things she has done.  She is most proud of her son and daughter and her Grandboys.  What an amazing woman we have in our Rotary Club.  Monica's Motto in life is: Life is an Echo.  Think about that....so very true.  Live each day to the very best of your ability.  We have so much to learn from her.
and you are correct Monica, you should not be a 
but you did take all of us on the ride of your life to date.  Thank you so very much.  Well done.
