PE Dennis presided ......a good meeting with the best O Canada ever! There were updates and a few business items to start the meeting. First, a reminder to bring in grocery receipts from Buy Low and Family Foods as a fundraiser for the Hospice Society. Then Harold volunteered to lead the kite building committee for the district conference (with some help from John and volunteers yet to be named)! The lists of past golf tournament sponsors will come out soon and members will be asked to follow up in contacting them for this year's prizes.
Jim brought in a check for $1000 that he and Cheryle received on Saturday as a result of the Shelterbox display at the Coyote game. Mal Turner was the donor and the amount covers the cost of 1 shelterbox.
After 3 meetings with happy bucks going to Teagan Adams, the contribution stands at $168.25. Jeff won the 50/50 and contributed that to the fund....the next two happy bucks will also go to grow the fund.
Shelly reminded us that next Friday is the start of the playoffs for the Coyotes and we will need to staff the bar once we know the schedule. She is kinda proud of her 'Yotes finishing first in their division!
The program was our newest member Judy Bennett sharing her vocational experiences. She did bring her husband Myers for support - he is a Rotarian with the Penticton club. The listing of companies, hotels, marinas that Judy owned or was involved with was exhaustive both before and after retirement. A successful and busy career! She spoke of the life changes that came from Dale Carnegie exposure and the work that she and Myers do with triathalons - Myers is a long standing rules official.
The attached picture is of the Weekend in the Mountains last weekend attended by Alessandra and Tianna. Can you find them?
