Last Week's Meeting
 
We had an enjoyable get-together Wednesday evening at the Wilmette Harbor Club.   Maureen Barry organized a short agenda with questions for members to share COVID 19 experiences and discuss how we can support each other.  Some of the positive experiences shared by the club members:
  • Chance for walks and observe nature (parks, birds, flowers) 
  • New puppy
  • Learn Pickleball
  • Finish projects
  • Sidewalk chalk art with grand-daughter
  • Slow down and catch up on sleep
  • Reconnections with old friends, nearby and around the world 
It was a beautiful fall evening and a nice chance to catch up with fellow Rotarians.  Beth DeWall distributed Rotary masks which we will make available to club members.
