I hope EVERYONE can join us IN PERSON for our August 17th meeting!  I will start the meeting at noon so we can be done by 12:45. We will go outside to the church steps and quickly find our places and SMILE!  The last time we had a club photo taken was in 2009.  This one will represent our wonderful Kent Rotary Club for our 100th year.  I hope everyone can be there that day.  If it rains, we will reschedule.  As rain cells can come and go quickly around here, please plan on the photo and be at the meeting.
 
It’s Taco Tuesday! Here’s the link to sign up for lunch.  Even though you do not need to choose your main dish, you do need to register.  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rotary-lunch-8172021-tickets-166831562695 Lunch will be provided this week by the chefs at the New Center at NEOMED.  Thanks Amanda Senn for organizing!
 
Our meeting on August 24th will be held at Stanton Middle School.  We cannot meet at the church since they will be setting up their Trash and Treasure Sale.  (Be sure to visit and support them during their sale.)  We will get to meet the new Kent teachers at the 24th meeting… and what better place than at the school.  More info will be coming in the next few weeks, but I hope you will plan ahead to be there.  You can attend that meeting via Zoom, though I it will be a more basic set up than that which we have had at the church.
 
Last Tuesday we had a fabulous program on the recent international sports competition (aka the Olympics).  The program was to have been put on by Todd Kamenash, but his alter ego, Scott Cavendish was there in his place.  I know there was a great deal of laughter as Todd/Scott always takes whatever he does for us and make it fun for all.  Thanks to both Todd and Scott for their terrific program!  With programs this fun, we should all be bringing a prospective member every week!
 
I have ordered sample shirts – both polo shirts and t-shirts for us to see and determine the correct sizing before we order shirts.  We should have them in the next couple of weeks.
 
On Thursday, August 19th, we will have a Rotary Board meeting at 7:00 pm via Zoom.  I will send the Zoom link out to the board in the next day or so.  If you would like to attend the board meeting, let me know and I’ll send you the link.  If you have a topic you think we should discuss, please share it with me (Kathy.myers@colemanservices.org)
 
Remember to invite friends and colleagues to be your guest at our meetings.  We want to share our great club and all we do for the Kent community and beyond.
