Last week we missed these beautiful Candy Canes painted by Lynda Thai-Baird for the Seniors Project
36 people responded with most attending meetings over the summer in one form or another. 25 attending both In Person and Zoom. 9 Zoom only and 5 "In Person" only
65% wanted to continue alternating In Person and Zoom. 35% wanted Zoom only.
A significant majority (70%) believed our guiding factor for holding "In Person" meetings should be Alberta Health Guidelines rather than any specific number of cases.

You will note there are two consecutive In Person meetings, (2nd and 9th) as we wanted to have the Remembrance Day meeting and host MP Rachael Harder in an "In Person" meeting. The following two meetings (16th and 23rd) will both be Zoom meetings.
 
Thank you to the 36+ who completed the Covid survey. These are difficult times to know what best suits other Rotarians without checking. Graphs are shown to the left and summary statements are there as well.
 
Our Exchange Student from 2017-18, Laci Eged from Hungary did a good job of bringing up to date on his life at our Zoom meeting this week. Laci stated he now has direction in his life because of Rotary and his one year in Lethbridge. (He also now does his own laundry!)
