Last week's meeting
From President Elect Jennifer's Facebook post to our club's Facebook page:
Good morning and let me introduce you to Curtis Larson, owner of Marigold Inspection Company right here in Coon Rapids. He and Jeff Larson, yes, they are Father/Son. They came and spoke to us about Radon. That pesky gas that lives in our homes and around and the effects it can have. They also gave all of us a free at home radon kit to help keep us safe. Do you need a radon test? Want an inspection done on your home? These guys are considered the best in the business and will take great care of you! Thank you Marigold for all the great information and your awesome smiles. Pictured with Jennifer are Curtis & Jeff:

Something new to meetings
The board would like to have local businesses present a 3 minute introduction to their company at each meeting.
