Announcements

Sandi and Julie talked more about the Conference in Sacramento over the weekend. Sandi showed pictures of the hand she put together and Julie talked about how much you can get out of going to a conference and urged everyone to go to the next one. Caryn agreed and said that when she went to a conference it gave her a much better perspective of the purpose of Rotary and what it stands for.

Marlin suggested we encourage people in China to join Rotary.
