We had a lot going on today!!  First we had our exchange student from Austria, Kathi Bottig, tell us about all the difficult things she has been forced to do - go to Disney, go camping, go to Seacamp - just another tough exchange year.

Next we had the honor to have with us John Thorne, a member of the Rotary international Board of Directors.  As there are only 20 Directors in the world we were in very select group.  John is from Tasmania, Australia and gave us some insight as to the efforts of his club in North Hobart.  We were  honored by his presents.

Then we observed something that we seem to be doing a lot lately - inducting a new member.  Bruce Goodman, a litigation attorney from Fort Lauderdale but residing in Coral Springs, has joined our ranks and has promised to join Warren to form the "Gregarious Goodmans"!!!  Welcome aboard - we are gonna put you to work!

Bruce and a very nice certificate!!  We should all get one!
