Joel Price gave our invocation and John Hanson introduced our visitors. Douglas Brown is a student at USC and is interested in a Rotary scholarship. Spencer McClay is Mike’s younger son and a former Rotary exchange student to Finland.

Lynn Richards provided our Health and Happiness. Lyman’s wife JoAnne is in the hospital and we need to keep her in our prayers. We were given a health update on Bill Kopleman and asked to keep him and his family in our thoughts and prayers.

President Eddie reminded us to donate to the C.A.R.T. Fund. Lynn Campbell made President Eddie live up to a bet. Eddie wore a Wake Forest hat the entire meeting because Wake beat Clemson in basketball last week.





President-Elect Ginny Barr represented our club at the President Elect Training Seminar in Myrtle Beach this past weekend. She gave us some information on the upcoming Rotary year and the new slogan “The Future of Rotary is in Your Hands”.

President Eddie wanted to notify the club that there will be NO MEETING next week, Wednesday the 18th due to the district conference.

John Adair and Joel Price each entertained us with their classification talks-Pizza, Piano, Price and Post Office.

Past President Chris Joye introduced our speaker Jonathan Mauger of the Boy’s Farm in Newberry. Jonathan gave a great talk about the Boy’s Farm and its 50 year history of helping ‘Build Boy’s rather than Mend Men’. He thanked the club for the $400 donation made to the Boy’s Farm.
