The Program: The speaker was unable to make it to the meeting because of being stuck in an airport. President Jeff reached out to Past President Sally (Hartman) who suggested Rotary Bingo. It was a big success. Everyone had a great time interacting at their tables and trying to get the highest points in the meeting by answering multiple questions on the bingo page. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners all donated their winnings…a bottle of Monkey Whiskey, a Stuffed Monkey, and a Rotary coffee cup…back to the golf tournament.
