Rotary story from John
Years ago while visiting other clubs for support, a request for biker billets was issued.
John's guests (aged 71 and 73) shared their fund raising goal to cycle 11,000 km across Russia.
No small feat. They raised millions! Moral of the story- it is easier to pick up the phone and solicit auction items.
Just do it!
Guest Speaker
President George and John gave the group a tutorial on how to use Club Runner
Announcements
Some announcements: Bill Finley is on the mend but would still welcome visitors and ice cream!
Cut-off date for auction items is non-negotiable! Get it done early! Use the awesome Rotary brand!
Happy Dollars
John Potts does Happy Dollars. He reminds us of the Power of leverage when seeking auction items!
Laura Byers from Community Care gives thanks for support and promotes Snacks and Sneakers
Larry had to cut out Happy Dollars from his planned retirement budget
