Hello Everyone,
 
I hope everyone is doing well. 
 
1) Our next meeting is this Thursday May 18th at 6:30pm. I don't have a formal agenda but rather a couple fun activities on top of our regular updates. 
 
2) Thank you to all of those who were able to make it to the club social at the start of the month. 
 
3) If you have missed a meeting, please send your make-up to Kelly Daum, our new club Secretary. kellydaum15@gmail.com. Or if you have volunteered at a Rotaract event such as Trivia Night or sub-committee meeting, send this to Kelly and she can bank it for a future meeting you may need to miss. 
 
4) Below are the minutes from our previous meeting.
 
See you Thursday night!
