President Bruce called the meeting to order

Joanne gave the invocation.

Happy Dollars

Renee was excited that she had met a Rotary member from New England. She also went to the Brentwood Rotary meeting and was surprised it was so large.

Richard is happy that this is his first tax season as a Rotarian

Mike is really not happy that all his children are now living on the East Coast. Monday night his son in Florida informed him that he and his family were victims of a house invasion...the good news was that no one was hurt.

Linda was elated over the fact that Delta Diablo Sanitation District was celebrating no violations, no overflows and no lost time or accidents. And its lab director Davell Cain was named supervisor of the year. (This was a repeated happiness).....and well worth it!

Marlin was really happy he finally received his certificate he worked so hard for.....but on a sad note his stepson who was celebrating his 30th birthday went to Tahoe with 29 of his friends and one of the party crashed into a tree while skiing and died. So tragic!

Julie was walking her dog the other day and when the dog saw a big puddle decided to not only to splash around in it but to roll it it! Bad dog!! Aw....can't stay mad for long!!!!

Diana was happy to escort 4 Korean students around the area along with help of Caryn.

Ron is elated that his daughter passed her final civil engineer test and is now a bona fide civil engineer!

Caryn was overjoyed to know that Joe Montana was a passenger in one of Curt's limos.

Announcements

Linda announced that Bill Gregory passed away. He was a member of San Ramon Rotary.
