Rotary Meeting Sept 11
Posted

9/11, now 13 years ago...sobering!
Today's meeting was focused on the Lobster on the Beach event just 3 days away! Before turning over the meeting to the Lobster committee, Pres Judy had Dave Perehudoff introduce his guest Adam and then reminded us of the need to think about attending the District Rotary Leadership weekend Oct 31st here in Osoyoos at Spirit Ridge. Our club should be well represented (it is our backyard!) and the agenda is packed with good fun and information so please think about it.
Cheryle then brought us up to speed on Saturday night's spectacular lobster event! It is sold out! And then some, as she is expecting 256 guests to attend. Cheryle and her committee (Judy/Karen) have done an incredible job pulling this together and we are ready to go despite some significant 'hiccups' along the way that she has managed in her very capable way! Cheryle laid out the program for the evening that starts late morning and ends at 1:30am and will be emailing Rotarians their assignments for the day/evening. Cheryle recognized the many donors of service and product from the community and was excited to get the 3rd live auction item from Dave (2 tickets to the Grey Cup with accommodations at the Rosewood @Georgia Hotel).
Should be a quite a party!
And huge thanks to Roger for volunteering to pick up the live lobster early on Saturday morning off an inbound flight in Kelowna.
If attaching the picture works, it is Ron, Brian and Vaughn performing impressive clean up services at our Rotary Boardroom at Lions Park...well done guys!
A good meeting...even if it cost us $$$ in fines for not knowing there are 1.2mm active Rotarians around the world!
Enjoy the party!
