CONGRATULATIONS:

BRIAN BITTNER, President of the Lafayette Rotary Club Foundation, Cecil Blignaut presented CECIL BLIGNAUT with a Golden Service certificate, recognizing his accumulated contributions of $1,000. Thank you, CECIL!


PROGRAM:
President JIM presided over today’s Rotary Spotlight Meeting.  He began by explaining that we are trying to have shorter meetings – allowing more time for networking.  We try to begin at 12:10 and allow speakers 20 minutes.  He is accepting ideas for keeping the meetings flowing.  

After reminding us that next week’s meeting is on Thursday (there will be no meeting on Tuesday), he asked each table to focus on Vocational Insights.  Members had fun sharing their experiences with others at the table.  Some of the recommendations for speakers were recorded by JO WADE.
