Steve Boucher

Hello everyone!

Hope that you had a great weekend and that you’re not too Superbowled over! Ha, get it? Anyhow....we had a great meeting last week and much success with our Rotarian Speed Dating activity. All that attended deserve a big round of applause for being such great sports! I have heard from multiple members how much fun they had and how they were able to learn things about fellow members that they did not know before. That's the point! We hope to do this and more other interactive activities at future meetings.

Please join us for our evening meeting, this Wednesday at Pork Nation on Rodick Street (next to Side Street) in Bar Harbor. Should be a great time!

See you soon!

Steve
