Bill Sutton joined us for meeting number 3. Next week, her can sworn in as a new member.
Tom sent out the programs list for the second half of 2010. If your name is on here, you either give a program yourself or get a speaker. Steve spoke about the type of presentations you can give. It can be about something you want to share or someone else from Rotary who can give us information about Rotary. Program is 15 minutes long. If you really need a speaker, see Muriel.
