Barbara Morris, who won the fining and the 50/50 last week, presented the fining program, and was presented with a check of over $300. Our visitors included Dave who helps us every year at the Spaghetti Dinner - Thank You Dave. Speaker was Peggy Janes of Wholistic Care who told us how negative thoughts block energy in our bodies and how her work helps release that energy.

Think humans are the the most dangerous animal on Earth. Think again.

 

Great job with the Spaghetti Dinner Barbara Morris, Interactors, Rotarians and family members. The dinner was a great success, lots of fun for everyone and raised funds for Rotary scholarships and youth projects.
