Our theme for next year is “Make Dreams Real”. Our Rotary International President is DK Lee from Korea, our District Governor is our own Wyn Spiller, and our Assistant District Governor is Pamela Yazell.

We look forward to Bob’s stewardship of our club; he reports that he will not allow any of the Bell Stealing that has gone on this year. As a young man, he was in the 20-30 Club and learned about Bell Protection. If I had known that Bob had a degree in BP (Bell Protection), I would have taken some lessons or maybe just given the bell to him to keep safe. After only one real full meeting, the Bell was again stolen while your esteemed President rescued the Paul Harris Banner from falling in a heap at our last meeting.

June is Rotary International Convention Month – June 15-18. It is in Los Angeles – just a plane ride away! Go to www.rotary.org to register or get more information.
