Doug, Ross & Marcia 
 
Members of the Membership Committee shared a new activity called “What I learned about my fellow Rotarian”. Each month one member of the POD will interview a member of the Club to learn more about them and then share with the membership.  To illustrate this, Doug had interviewed Celine and Marcia had interviewed Nancy.  They both shared some great insights and information about these two new members of our Club, giving us food for thought and great conversation starters for the next time we may be seated near them at a Club meeting or event.  Excellent Idea!!!
