Meeting on Jan 7, 2015

Pres Lisa presiding and provided the following short story for inspiration:

"This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.  There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.  Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.  Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job.  Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.  It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have. Are you somebody who is willing to step up so that everybody benefits?"

 

 

Jim has another granddaughter that was born yesterday. Congrats to Jim!

 

Matt is glad to be back. He had some family issues he was helping with, but all is well now. Glad to have you back Matt!

Hank went to San Diego to his mother in laws and watched David Cox (saxophonist) perform.

 

 

Lisa shared a letter from the RI president, which detailed how Rotarians should light up Rotary by informing others of our good work.
