God Speed, Father Kang...
Our meeting on this date, was the last meeting in which Fr. Peter Kang will attend, as he is relocating to a new home and theological calling in Fairfax, Virginia. Many members shared their thoughts and memories about Peter's membership and friendship while in the Santa Maria Breakfast Rotary Club: Jason Stilwell ($100), Rich Watson ($50), Shannon Seifert ($50), and Lee Carroll "Go Forth and Multiplly!" while officiating at his wedding. ($25)
Fr. Peter Kang expressed his sincerest gratitude to the members of the Santa Maria Breakfast Rotary Club for their friendship and show of support for him and his family. Not only that, he bought a house...unseen...except through the eyes of his realtor. And, oh yes, his son's birthday and his 7th anniversary. Tim Staffel would be so proud! $100.
Terry Dworaczyk and his wife are winding their way across America "in a tin-can" and having a great time doing it, too! He even bragged while enroute! $30
Peter Fuhring shared that he and his bride experienced their 11th wedding anniversary. $50
Presz Astrosky bragged about a new business venture for the Vocational Training Center, acquisition of a new business, All America Screen Printing. Keep those shirts a 'comin'! $50

FINES
Laurie Tamura and her hubby missed SMBR so much she sent a photo to us while traveling in Scotland. Unfortunately, she lost her Duckie and substituted something really weird in its place. $30
Peter Fuhring, unfortunately, while bragging he forgot to mention a new F250 truck he recently added to his fleet! $30
Some people are just toooo hard to find a reason to fine 'em! Well, for being good little boys and girls, here is a $30 fine for Frank Culley, Holly Edds, Michele Jensen and Jesse Silva.
What does that say about the rest of us pigeons, Prez?!
