Vicente Asuncion recited the 4 way test.
Rotary Moment:
Michael Alty told us a story about a Rotary club in Pakistan that teamed up with Coca Cola to set up water filtration systems in a village. As the population came to fetch clean water they would offer to give the Polio vaccine to the children who came with their parents. What a great way to promote vaccination!
Announcements:
1) Seniors Christmas Luncheon. Matthew is still exploring options for the WESN Christmas Lunch.
2) Hoop a Thon- Gary Chomyn has organized a Hoopathon kickoff meeting for April 20th. Please make sure you attend our meeting that day.
