Many Breakfast Rotarians just love this time of year! Autumn colors, cooler temperatures, baking in the kitchen, raking leaves, anticipating the holidays are all signs of the season and our members are certainly the festive type. In the coming days and weeks Breakfast Rotary will have a number of activities in which we can display and share our positivity with others. Some of those activities are the annual Thanksgiving Dinner give-a-way and Christmas Shopping with Children at Target Program. So, consider spreading some cheer in an upcoming Breakfast Rotary activity. Speaking of Community Service, with the departure to Arizona of Kathy Berry, we are without a Community Service Director. Didn’t you join Rotary to serve our community? In this role you have a MAJOR impact on our activities in the community! You don't need to do it all yourself. You are encouraged to put a team together and share the fun. Interested? Let Pres Dave know of your interest or anyone of the Board of Directors. This is one of the best jobs in Rotary! Our venue for today’s meeting was The Petroleum Club at Sundale Golf Club. Never having been there before I was taken by the atmosphere, it seemed very “cozy” for the 40 plus members who arrived to enjoy a bird’s eye view of the gold course and say good morning to our Greeters Athena Collup and Mary Jo Pasek. Those in attendance along with our ZOOMing members that received the morning Invocation from “Darling” David Perkins. Via ZOOM Past President Kay Pitts lead us in America’s Flag Salute, followed by Past Prez Denise Haynes belting out, “Take Me Out to the Ballgame”. By the way, did any of you see Denise dancing about to the beat of the song as she was singing…soooo cute Dodger fan! Ken Quarnberg took the reins in announcing our visiting Rotarians. He said there was none! Ahhh, not so fast Mr. Ken, our morning’s featured speaker is a Past President and current member of West Rotary. Welcome Al Sandrini! |
