Thank you Miles, Jim, Louise, Gayle and Dave, Nicole, Carolyn, John, Karen, Robin and Tom, Chris, Tom, Judy and George, Walt, Cathy, Lynda, and Ken for making the July 3 meeting at 5:30/ Round Table. We heard many great shares about past 4th of July memories around the country. We are a ‘Worldly” group for sure! And for listening to my “Moved-So-Often…Finally- Found-Home” account of the abbreviated recounting of my first 78 11/12 years. Great to be alive and with you all!
Four Area 4 new Presidents are also expected at our Thursday, July 10 meeting at Bodhi-Hive at 12:15 catered lunch (bring your own if you need to). We will gather as soon as we can around 12:30 to get our Group Photograph (John Boyer behind the camera). Stay for lunch or just a quick Smile. …………Thank you!
