This Week – June 18 - Pancake Breakfast Organizational Meeting: Robin Jowaisas will tie all the planning together in the final prep, making sure everything and everyone is ready to Shake & Bake - Rock & Roll – so  until then everyone should  -------- Sell, Sell, Sell those Tickets!

Jack Priest promises to stop being a “no show”, be here, & tell some funny stories, but seeing is believing.

Benediction & Atonement:  Karen Veverka, with her prolific writing ability will present another original invocation for our group. After dinner the good Dr. Patil, just back from visiting a daughter in Princeton will collect atonement in fines and happy $$$.

Last Week – June 11: Club Assembly with a steak dinner, desert, libations, lots of laughing. No business, save a few announcements. For those who joined in, it seemed like a good evening, and if anyone claims otherwise, they sure left only empty plates. For those unable to attend this second in the series, “c’est-la-vie.”

Next Week – June 25: Understand is there is what’s called a “guard changing” event; guess I won’t miss that!

 Rumor also has it that inbound exchange student Charly Linden’s mother (and Charly of course) will be joining us for dinner. Glad to have them both.

Rotary District #7150: As mentioned earlier, a District #7150 Changing of the Guard will take place on June 30 at Dibble’s Inn. Contact incoming governor PJ Scott if you would like to attend; email - pjscott@twcny.com , phone - 315.303.4723 home, or 315.529.9902 cellular. An registration form was emailed and announced previously.

Exchequer & Preparation: Jim Messenger, John O’Sullivan, & Bunt Osborne will be the “money changers” at the door and conduct our weekly 50/50 draw. Next week, the 25th Umesh Patil, Skip Plank, and Dick Poppa will be on deck.   If you will be among the missing, please get a substitute!
