IT HAPPENED THIS WEEK, November 2, 2011
By Lyn Caron
President Ann called the meeting to order on this warm, sunny afternoon. Joe Davidson delivered the Invocation followed by the
flag salute led by Bruce Jagger and the patriotic song led by Tim Messmer.
Although club attendance was light, our visiting Rotarian, Ron Brack, a former Culver City club member and currently a Westlake Village member, livened things up. President Ann called on Ron to lead the Welcome Song assisted by Harold Hanslmair.
President Ann made the following announcements:
• Paul Harris Celebration at Circus Vargas, Sunday 11/6/2011

• Club Board Meeting, Tuesday, 11/8/2011 at Phil Tangalakis' office. All past presidents encouraged to attend.
HEALTH UPDATES
Lenay Richardson is still recovering from surgery. Bill Cavaness will undergo surgery on 11/11/11, a date he'll always remember.
President Ann levied some fines assisted by the "Fine Master" Ron Brack. Cartwright and Linda Sheppard enjoyed some R&R in Hawaii for $75. Getting off easier was Joe Davidson for $20 and Dannie Cavanaugh for $50.
Cy Pierce introduced speaker Chiqeeta Jameson, Regional Account Manager for Sono Cine. She gave a very informative presentation on breast cancer testing. All tumors are not detected by mammograms; however, the sonogram exam available at Sono Cine is able to detect "hidden tumors" in dense tissue. If anyone is interested, Sono Cine is offering a special price, for November only, of $265. Please mention the Culver City Rotary Club for the discount. It is not covered by insurance.
Have a good week Rotarians.
