We had a wonderful attendance to enjoy the Back Bay Ringers - Boston's Community Handbell ensemble. We have been invited to "Metamorphosis" on Friday, June 2nd at the 1st Church in Boston with proceeds to benefit the LGBT Asylum Support Task Force. Our speaker guests were Norah Piehl and Griff Gall who explained how the manufacturing of handbells and their difference sizes and clappers helped to sound out the notes of music. Their handbells are manufactured in Pennsylvania.
We welcome back the Hon. Rev. Dr. Hamlet Mbabazi Kabushenga and his wife, Kelln. He would like us to visit Uganda as they are the last stronghold in the world that still has and protects gorillas. Also, he wants us to be away there are many deaths of newborns due to lack of electricity, during cesarian sections at night.
We also welcomed again Rotarian Bob Francis from the Waltham Club.
On the evening of May 4th, Chip Bradley, Rob Mosher, and Eileen White were invited and attended "A Taste of Wellesley." The three of us were warmly welcomed and please we supported their program. Honorary Chairperson and Rotary Scholar in attendance was Dr. Kerry Healy. Great time was had be all.
