on The truth of what happened in Bosnia

Intro: Andrew Young Thanks:  tba

Greeters: Gaye Moffett/Carol Waters

    PP Draw:  Russ Hicks    Spinoff:  Jack Troughton

 

Greeters & Huggers (I insisted...): Doreen Ide & John Martin.  Past President's Lucky Tickets from Doug Heyland , prizes were TWO shower-water restrictors and a timely board of reminders that we all should be more responsible about unthinking, careless use of water. Hadi Mortada was on duty for Reception but no visitors arrived till neo-member Rich Fisher (downtown RC) came in a bit late.

 

Past President Joan Heyland opened the meeting with a cheerful "Isn't it GREAT to be Rotarians?!" and many cheered back "Yes!" and "Oui!". To Rod Holmes' rollicking keyboard artistry, we sang God Save the Queen in honour of yesterday's Victoria Day, followed by our usual O Canada.  Sarvesh Upadhyaya's sombre grace reminded us to be thankful for all that we receive.
