SHERIFF
Stuart Siegner raised $180 fining everyone for a "cornacopia" of actions befitting the fury of the political season we are now about:
 Mo for collecting money, Jeff W for the Walkiss police, Chief Shettenhelm for the Sheriff Dept coming soon, Tate Vo for her Big bash birthday party, $2 if you attended and $3 if you were not invited. Save the Lobster Foundation got you $2, if you played Tennis it cost $1, if you just watched, it was $2 and if you lied about, it was $3.
If you did not know how many consecutive games Cal Ripken played, it was a $1. If you did not know the game he played, it was $3. Same occurred if you did not know that Disney World had surpassed it's 200Millionth visitor.
It cost you $1 if you did not know that it was National Piano month, Get Ready day, Punch Day,[it cost $3 if you spiked the punch], National IT Day, if you used Net Flix, Hulu or similar service. Last, our Finest has heard rumors about the OPC dating service and fined all who participated while declaring it to be unfashionable. Sticking with fashion, Super Sleuth fined Tim Duncan for winning with his "Scouts Evening Wear"; Jay Eastman for wining the Foreign Films category with the film "Teeth Pulled Galore";Rhonda Panzyck for her winning movie script - facebook photos titled "Rotary 24/7"; John Gaber just for being his "Omnipotent" self.
SPEAKER
President Nominee Rodney Hulbert introduced Rotarian Wayne Hodges to impart grace and wisdom to all in attendance about this years youth program initiatives.

- Identify Rotarian career speakers/presenter volunteers
- Identify and plan Rotarian internship opportunities
- Identify list of Rotarians willing to participate in Youth fund raisers, service projects and “joint projects”
- Identify list of Rotarians willing to mentor to youth via Interact or Rotaract
