JULY 8 MEETING: 12 P.M.
WELCOME PRESIDENT JENNA
 
That's right, this week begins a new Rotary year for our club meetings, with Jenna Pellicci heading up the troops. Let's all commit to being more soldier-like, and less cat-like, if you know what I mean! 
 
Grab your lunch and head to City Hall, or Zoom on in for our noon meeting. And since our last meeting of the 2020-2021 year wasn't well attended, take time this week to thank Nate for his year of service. 
 
Onward and upward!
