Cambridge North Rotary Club (Aug 11, 2021)

OPENING CEREMONIES

Posted by Jeff Matyas on Aug 11, 2021

This was the FIRST live , in person , meeting at the Galt Country Club , since the fall of 2020 !!

President Ken brought the meeting to order .

Sean provided invocation ... very memorable ... 2 , 4 , 6 , 8 , dig in and don't wait . Amen .

We skipped singing the national anthem . But Ken toasted the Queen , and Canada .

TABLE TALK

I enjoyed the live company of Allan , Gerry , and Paul .

We all were discussing the perils of travel these days , especially to the USA . Florida seems especially scary , with 27,000 new cases of COVID daily... Allan was in Atlanta a couple weeks ago visiting family. Masks were literally absent indoors , both in shops and restaurants . Shocking with the delta variant so prevalent , and contagious .

Gerry didn't expect to received a Paul Harris award at the change over party two weeks ago . He was a very deserving recipient !

We were also all awoken last night by the active , loud , summer storm last night at 4:30 am.

SERGEANT-AT-ARMS REPORT

We had a total of 13 Rotarians present today , with 2 participating by Zoom . ( Laureen and Dan )

Not bad for a hot summer day .

HAPPY-TOONIES

Don Daggett was happy his severance of one acre of his front yard has been approved !

Ken is happy his half marathon in Huntsville on Aug 29th has not been cancelled . He is looking forward to visiting his kids in BC in September .

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Ken needs a single volunteer to assist with the three club membership drive . Please help him out ...

Ken also requested that all members bring at least one new guest to the club for a lunch meeting .

Ken also requested that all members recruit one speaker for our upcoming meetings .

Ribfest was this past Saturday, at the Hespeler arena . There were 3 rib vendors . It was a drive thru event , from 11:00mam till 8:00 pm . Over 2200 cars drove thru the gates . It was a great financial success !
