Mystery Hand shaker- Jim Vyduna
Happy Dollars Karen for attending our past German exchange student Verena’s wedding and for Denny’s advice to watch out for bicyclers in Amsterdam, Kathy because the Richmond Spring Grove Fire Department loves the $700 grill they bought from us and they sold Phil Bartmann a raffle ticket that produced $200, Bill for tomatoes coming in, Jim for 10 days in Vail and a 14,000 ft. Mountain climb. Thought to ponder, if a Rotarian wins charity money while completing an official Rotary mission, should said winnings also become charitable to Rotary ?
Fun & Frolics - MIA, so we all put in a buck and look forward to next month with Arvidson, Baggio and Bartmann.
Program Tom asked for members to share resent random acts of kindness and plans on promoting trustworthiness along with the City, so please look for examples of this to share with us at future meetings. What a great way to live by and share our 4-way test.
