I want to start out by thanking all those who attended the Strategic Planning session last Sunday morning. There were discussions about everything "Liberty" Rotary! A special thanks to Kent Shelman PDG for leading the session. More details about the discussions to come.
Our program this week is all about the current trends in "Fraud & Scams" courtesy of our own Doreen Scarborough.
Just a reminder.......we need a continual supple of shoes! We made a great start but it is a new month......a slow steady supply of shoes will get us to our goal!
Have a great week!
