On a beautiful Fall Monday, September 16, 2019, eighteen Lexington Rotarians, one guest, and yes, one half guest, one half Rotarian, I already have a headache, totalling 20 eager beavers met to break bread, and share fellowship. The “last supper’ was swordfish, beef tenderloin, green beans , and of course, chocolate chips cookies, enough to put you to sleep by 2:00 pm, have a siesta I say!!!
 
The Pledge of Allegiance was led by “ what planet are you on” Bob Cunningham
First verse of America was led by “calling doctor Kildare” Charlie Vail
Invocation by “can’t wait for winter” PDG Jack Maloney
Bulletin Writer, pssssssst “secret admirer”
 
The meeting started off with some bantering regarding, who is the oldest. The question is, are we speaking to who looks the oldest, or who is actually the oldest. After turning up their hearing aids, I cannot tell a lie PP John announced  PDG Jack is the winner, winner, chicken dinner.
