How are your Golf Ball Drop ticket sales going?  Mine would be going great if Vance & Dale didn't beat me to some of the select customers.  Oh, well, it's all for the good of Rotary ... and STARS.

Stacy Atkinson & Nick Coroluick from Minards' were guest speakers last week.

It looks like attendance was a little slim, but what would I know since I wasn't there.  LOL

Sure, Vance sat next to Denis so he could get a heap of tickets.

There are no photos from last week's meeting as I wasn't there.  However, I did go to the Humane Society garage sale and found this treasure ...  I know we haven't given ones that look like this in quite some time.  I wonder why the recipient didn't take it out of the box and use it.

Did you know that we are giving up creating the newsletter at the end of June?  Do you want to do it?  It can be in whatever format you want.  Talk to Ray if you are interested.  Another alternative is that I can just add the extra information from the newsletter (upcoming events, meeting programs, etc.) to the weekly minutes.

Dennis checked if Nancy is recovering from her recent surgery.

Chakra spoke of the devastation in Nepal after the earthquake and we remembered those who died with a minute of silence.  Bring donations for Shelter Boxes to the next meeting and the club will match them dollar for dollar up to a total of $1000.  As well, the club has budgeted for two other Shelter Boxes and raised enough money for another one at the Dinner Theater.

Vance had a chat with guest Ken Murray.

Terry, Judi, & Deana show off their Farm Safety Day shirts.  Thanks to these three and Sara for working at it.

Christine Cooper, adult programmer at the library, was our guest speaker.

Ray presented Tom with his 25 year pin.

Thanks, thanks, thanks to the Rotarians who worked our annual Dinner Theater.  This year the students performed Footloose.

Bev was our ticket taker.

Chef Larry had explicit instructions.  He and his students did a superior job of cooking, baking, and plating.

The dishwashers were exhausted!

However, when one of the show's performers paid them a visit, they perked up.

Here Garnet displays the scrumptious desserts.

Yum!

I forgot to get a picture of the whole gang, but thanks to Diane & Don, Garnet & Barb, Vance & Kay, Pat, Gwen, June, Jill, Doug, Bev, Vic & Bob for working at it.
