President Brandon opened the meeting at 12:27 and Barb Rupp led the pledge and prayer.
ATTENDANCE: 30 members out of 76 attended which represents 39.47% of our membership. Guests included Mark Albright, Rotarian from a Club in Brazil.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Laura Becker - the library is offering Library Lottery Cards at $20 per card. Numbers will be drawn regularly for a chance to win cash. This is an opportunity to support the library.
Terry Gingrow - "Happy Dollars" will be cash only as we can no longer add it to your invoice.
Brandon Gething - we are starting a new concept called the birthday wheel. Those celebrating birthdays each month get to spin the wheel and members may have to "pay up" depending upon the category on which the wheel stops.
Dale Brubaker - We have been asked by the borough to refurbish a shed on a playground off Filbert St. Dale will soon be asking for volunteers to help with painting, sanding, etc. See photos of the shed below, courtesy of Terry Gingrow.
PROGRAM: Our classification speaker for today had to reschedule due to a work commitment. In his place, Brandon asked each member to introduce themselves, and tell how long they have been in Rotary, what their current occupation is, and share something about themselves that we may not know. We went around the room and learned much about our fellow Rotarians.
NEXT WEEK'S PROGRAM: Classification Speech - Austin Carroll
