PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
 
Our November 16th our Rotary Club meeting/luncheon was hosted by the Unity Shoppe of Santa Barbara.  Club members got a tour of the Unity facilities, all were impressed with the many services offered.  We then met at the lunch room to enjoy a delicious homemade meal of chile beans.  Thanks to the generosity of Incoming Executive Director Angela Miller.
 
On November 18-19-20 Rotary District 5240 held their conference at the Hilton Hotel of Santa Barbara.  Our Rotary members that attended were:  Cathy Calabro, Gil Garcia, Roberto Najera and me.  Jacqueline Duran and her husband Alex joined us for the Saturday night dinner/dance.  Guest speakers included John Palminteri from KEYT news, another interesting speaker was Amy Scruggs, both spoke on Rotary imaging and getting the Rotary message out.  District Governor Scott Phillips was everywhere, living up to his theme of "LET'S GET LOUD".
 
I want to wish everyone including your families a very Happy Thanksgiving!
 
A Warm Rotary Greeting,
Marti Correa de Garcia
