President Tom presents a gift to our own Betty Rickard after her entertaining Member Bio (nice photobomb Lynette!).
So I forgot to take notes at our meeting so I'll make some stuff up and see if anyone notices.
 
Tom mentioned a few Rotary happenings:
  • Work day(s) at St. John's - this coming Friday & Saturday - Let Raylene know on which day you can help
  • Luna Vista Holiday Extravaganza 12/19 - Bring your better half and come celebrate with all the other Lunatics - sign up with Victoria if you are coming and bring something to nibble on
  • No meetings 12/26 & 1/2
  • Rotary Blood Drive - 1/4 at Cracchiolo's
  • Cemetery Work Day - 1/6
And last but not least we had this:
 
 
which was Duane discussing the upcoming Rotary Peace and Conflict Conference in Berkeley on 1/27
 
Other items were discussed as well as Happy Dollars.
 
We had a good crowd for our meeting including newly knee'd Cass with her medical assistant Craig.
 
 
Our program was a Member Bio from Betty Rickard.  She came prepared with slides and lot's of great pictures.
 
 
and stories about great grandparents all the ways to grand babies (twins!)  :-)
 
 
We also heard about her love of old houses and the "fun" of fixing them up.  Betty worked for many years for Hallmark and after retiring, she has gotten involved with The White Barn on Main Street.
 
Thanks for a very entertaining program Betty!
 
Is it an Ugly Sweater or an Ugly Sock contest??
