Rochester Rotary Club RotoScoop
November 19th, 2019
 
President Wayne Hodges opened the meeting with the Pledge of Allegience, then we sang God Bless America, and recited the modified Four Way Test.  The invocation was given by Kyle Johnson, reminding us during this holiday season to think about what we are thankful for, and to continue to be Rotarians by helping those in our community that need it most.  President Wayne reminded us of the anniversary of the assassination of JFK this coming Friday, to take a moment to remember this event.  Lunch was served.
 
ATTENDANCE

We had 59 members present, and multiple guests:  Kelly Messining from Rochester High School Interact Club, Andrea Walker-Leidy, a previous Rotarian, and Tom Inger, a guest of Wayne Hodges.  In addition, there were several job shadow students attending.
