Jim White introduced Muskegon Rotarian, Orville Crain, District 6290 Membership Chair, co-owner of Clever Innervations and life long entrepreneur with five different patents. Crain spoke in regards to recruiting new Rotarians, noting he is in the process of recruiting his 20th member. He explained the importance of being able to explain what Rotary is when asked by others. Personal connection is by far the best way to acquire new members. Crain suggested visiting Rotary Club Central. Crain ended his talk with a quote; "if you are green you grow, if you are ripe you rot". A wise man!!
