  • Robin Jowaisas - Paul Harris plus Four (pictured)
  • Lori Ruhlman - Paul Harris plus Three (pictured)

LAST WEEK - May 13th, 2021 ... by Mary
Membership/Attendance: 53 Active members, 27 attending 
Guests:  Emmey Crossett, Tyler's guest
The Beginnings-  President Dave opened the meeting.  Members recited the Pledge of Allegiance and Danny Roche led us in singing a heartfelt "America the Beautiful."   
The Program - Members socialized and had a great time reconnecting after a long winter.  Tyler presented new members  Ayhem Boucher and Mike Tierney with their official Rotary pins, plaques and T shirts. It was nice to meet our new members in person and welcome them to the Club. Bill B presented Paul Harris awards to four members (see article above).  Danny collected many happy dollars from members who mostly said "Happy to be here!"  Thanks to Ed, Bill B and Robin for arranging the meeting at the American Legion.
 Wanted - If you have a favorite inspirational saying please send it to President Dave to be read at a meeting.
The Ending:  Several members stayed behind to enjoy a warm fire as the night chill started to set in.
