Announcements
- Rotary Minute by Kent--Shared with us information re: RYLA and Young RYLA. He then gave the floor to Barb who reported on her "nephew?" who recently attended Young RYLA. He thoroughly enjoyed his week and felt the exercises and training was good for him.
- Diane shared a letter written to her by a man she met on a trip who has a close connection with Paul Harris. Once she mentioned (was she wearing her pin?) Rotary, the gentleman went on and on about the world’s best organization. She will copy the letter and share copies with the Club soon.

After discussion, the Club may us a Dream Dinner-type place to make a bunch of meals for her and her son.
After the meeting, Randy spoke with her and her church is taking care of the first two weeks. Rotary will help after that.

Happy Bucks
Ben did a great job of collecting about $10. Hopefully in ensuing weeks, more members will be happier.
Program
Tim Jackson, executive director of the Colorado Auto Dealers Association. He regaled us with Rotary stories before he shared info about automobiles, gas increase and much fewer warranty problems. It was a great program, wish you had been here to hear him.
