Jackson Brown introduced our visiting guests. This week we had Nicole Schmidt, and

Announcements:  This week was a special meeting, as we celebrated our past presidents of the club. We enjoyed an outdoor lunch on the deck. 

Congratulations to Paul Deschambault, Jim McAllister, and Dennis Ely who are recipients of the Paul Harris Award. 

Keith Jacques, (Past president 2001-2002) spoke to the club members about how wonderful it is to have the past presidents join us for fellowship as well as to find out the progress of the club. All past presidents of our club were invited along with their spouses, and while some were not able to attend, it was a great time had by all. Keith introduced each one and an applause appropriately followed. It is because of their commitment and dedication that the Club has been so successful over the years. 

Jim Godbout will be hosting a Red Ribbon fundraising event on July 29, 2017 at the beach, more information to follow. 

Please be in attendance for our next meeting on June 21st; this is our annual awards meeting.

Happy dollars: 

Ken Farley was happy his son graduated from high school, Bill Kany was happy he got a free lunch, Joe Boyle was happy that the Letters for Literature program chose someone from Maine as the winner, and he had a nice trip to Eastport; Joe Bassett happy to have his visitors here from NY where they are also Rotary members. Bronwyn was happy for a great weekend and a nice trip. Julie was happy that a lot of people had already signed up for the new Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital license plates and encouraged more of us to do so. They were hoping for 100 more to reach their goal. Lucy is happy that Nicole Schmidt was her guest today.

Fines- Jackson was fined for chewing gum during the guest introductions, Lucie for backtalk, Josh Ellis for finally attending a meeting, Fausto for his dance moves and missing a meeting, Elaine for laughing at Peggy, which is not fair to all concerned..! Many others were fined for not

placing their food orders in a timely manner. Sue, Jim M, Sabine, and Bernice for matching outfits, Bill for his Rotary house comment “It’s in Biddeford!” and Carl for being late for the meeting. 

Adam Parent, Linda Verville, and Sarah Brouillard were fined for having birthdays. 

Speaker Presentation:  Due to the past president event, there was no guest speaker this week. 

Have a great week everyone.
