I met President Patty at the District Conference and was happy to join this club for lunch.  A busy meeting was in order with a new member joining the ranks. I know a couple of members and can I tell you this club has some amazing members who are leading the way to make communities around the world better. Ken Franz and the Bridges to Prosperity program that helps connect communities with footbridges and Ken Hodges who rode a motorcycle to South America to raise funds for the Rotary Foundation and is looking forward to cruising across Africa for another event.  The Club offers it's Happy Dollars to Polio Plus and has a piggy bank to aid in the collection.

The piggy bank for Polio

The featured speaker, former member and attorney, turned author, Robert "Buster" Brown, introduced us to "The Longbridge Decision" a fast paced legal thriller, which has just been published.   The group was very happy for this accomplished attorney and had lots of questions from coming up with the story to publishing.

 The meal offered fish which was a nice change from the usual chicken.
