Jeff Lester also took a moment to recognize our wonderful club administrative assistant Gina Rodriguez for her 20 years of service to the Rotary Club of Amarillo. (Xavier Candelaria 373-2592) We all know that Gina is our not-so-secret reason for the success we’ve enjoyed.
Thank you, Gina, for all you do to keep us moving forward.

A note about the pot. We did not have a drawing at the joint meeting and our club now faces the monumental task, nail biting moment, big time donation to Polio Plus and gamblers delight of drawing the Ace of Spades. Only $5320.00 to fuss over. And also of note.....check out the Five Things you may not know about Dale Bippus on the home page.
