Guest Speaker: No guest speaker. Instead after our lunch Jeff showed a short video from the Rotary Club in Silicone Valley. The speaker, Mitty Chang, was talking about how Rotary Clubs around the world are not growing and how we need to be innovative to ensure a strong Rotary presence in the future. To help with this his company has developed a website that all Rotary Clubs can use for free starting July 1st. He also said that his company will maintain the website and keep it fresh looking. This website will give us access to more people and tell everyone what Rotary about.
