ATTENDANCE

This week's Rotary meeting was in the big ballroom of the Coast Hotel and we all started our meeting by reciting from memory the Four Way Test. Well, some of us, we had to read it… There were 16 members present and two on Skype, Rob and Ann Shirley Goodell, plus one guest Steve McGrandle.


ANNOUNCEMENTS

Next week, on February 13th, our club will celebrate Valentine’s Day, with our annual Valentine’s Auctions and it is sure going to be fun!
