Suspense Filled Meeting Is Quick and Profitable!

The weather was warm, sunny, 55 degrees, good for Duck Boat tours and celebrations. We were seventeen Lexington Rotarians with no guests, no speakers. We enjoyed steak tips, shrimp, pasta with spicy chicken, veggies and salad.
 
PP Bob O led us in the pledge, we sang one verse of America led by PP Domenic S and the invocation was given by PP Jim S.
 
FINES & HAPPY DOLLARS
  • PP Don Martini gave $24, 1 dollar per remaining week in Michelle’s presidency for PP Domenic S to not to lead any songs again.
  • PP John O’Donnell  gave $20 for successful major surgery his daughter had, we wish her well and hope her to recover soon.
  • Sergeant at Arms Allan gave $10 for watching both the play Beautiful and Superbowl the same evening.
  • PP Bob O gave $10 for the Penguin Plunge in New Hampshire.
  • PP Jim S gave $25 for the support or Chamber of Commerce.
  • President Michelle gave $10 because she is a nice person.
  • All Rotarians were fined for lack of guests.
  • President Michelle kept PP Jim S in suspense and finally fined him for failing to initiate a Superbowl Pool and he himself set his fine as $100. He was fined again for wearing a cap. Although he declared he had $9 left, we couldn't find any reason to fine him further.
  • President Michelle was fined $5 for not addressing PP, (His Highness), John O in the PP form.
  • We were having fun but no one else could be fined.
