Today’s Program – Business Meeting


Rotary Last Week, November 10th

“Don’t know why, ain’t no sun up in the sky, Stormy weather”….

Perhaps the author of this line should have consulted with Jim Witt, WHUD Meteorologst . who was our guest speaker at the meeting. He could have probably given him some directions on Pacific Decadal Oscillation with resulting El Nino’s, causing east coast storms this coming winter. Jim, as usual, gave a great program, and sold some of his long range forecast calendars for the “Hope For Youth Foundation.”

Phil Brillante’s Safety News

While tipping his hat to Jim Witt for his forecasts, Phil reminded us that the “Interact” program at O’Neill H.S. is looking for new recruits. (Welcome back, Phil.)

Get Ready Shirley Bonsell reports that the Holiday Luncheon will be on December 15th. More to come on this shortly.

Diana Cole: Diana is doing a great job coordinating the District Katrina fund. (Keep up the good work Diana.)

Theatre Party:  Again, the theatre party is TO BE RE-SCHEDULED! New arrangements are being pursued.

Jerry Sheehan’s Pushcart  Jerry says:

“With the holiday’s coming, I’m in a lurch,

So buy a new jacket and wear it to church!”
