Last week Representative Doug LaMalfa updated Quincy Rotary on the work of the 114th Congress. Rotarian Bob Edwards discussed the recent Loyalton Lamb Feed (spoiler alert - it ended Baaa-dly for the lambs). Rotarian David Windle explained why the Club is no longer allowed to use school property. Rotarian Gerry Hendrick was assessed a milage tax and President Little demands federal action to find his lost bell.
Rotary was honored to host 4-H for a lunch this past week and was treated to rabbit, goats and steer, oh my! We sang the Marines' Hymn. Darren Beatty, our newest member and Marine pointed out that our songbook version was over 70 years outdated, as the current Hymn mentions "air" to reflect the addition of aviation to the Corp. We also sang a hopefully error-free version of "Happy Birthday" to our supreme (bell-less) commander, David Little!
Belldo Sighting.
Belldo was spotted being put out with the trash. Does the address look familiar to anyone?
Luckily He was saved by Tim Gallagher. Not sure if they planned the matching shirts though.

Rotary members and our partners in the fight to eradicate polio offer our heartfelt condolences and express a deep sadness in the wake of a horrific bomb attack in Quetta, Pakistan, that took the lives of at least 15 security personnel on 13 January.
This tragic attack outside a polio immunization center is a stark reminder of the dangers faced by Rotary, our partners in the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, and the brave women and men on the front lines of our effort to protect all children from the paralyzing effects of polio. While the bombing will be investigated, one thing is clear:...
