Last week our program was "Get to Know Your Fellow Rotarian" presented by Marti Kline. We had a great time teaming up with another Rotarian and finding out things about their personal history, and even things that no one else would know about them; and then relaying that information to the other members. It was done in fun, and it helps us to know more about the people we share breakfast with every Wednesday morning. Thanks again Marti for a great program.
This week Adam Kline is our Rotarian of the Day, and Ryan Edsen is the Sergeant at Arms.
Upcoming - 2019 Bowling Bash, Friday afternoon, February 22. This is a very important fund raiser for the Iowa Technology Expo and other community projects. We would like to fill all the lanes at the Great Escape this year, so start getting your teams together now. All forms are available to print from the East Polk Rotary website. This week Mike Hamilton will be asking us to sign up to bring a basket for the silent auction.
