BRAGS
 
Martin Testa (Rotarian of the Month): As Martin's last free brag of the month, he made mention of the great dinner that was sold at the last Rotary auction. Everything went according to plan and everyone who attended had fun. Martin also bragged on his recent trip to Hitching Post.
 
Carl DeRiso: Carl also bragged on the Hitching Post. He recently booked a large company dinner party and everything went smoothly. That was worth $50.
 
Terri Stricklin: bragged on Andy Caldwell and the movie that he had a large group attend last Friday. The movie was very informative and she was glad that she went. $50
 
Michelle Jensen: Michelle recently celebrated a birthday with her twin brother. $25
 
Frank Ortiz: bragged on a recent dinner he attended with a few other Rotarians. $25
 
Mike Moats: was also at the same dinner. In fact, Mike and Susan have another one that they will attend on 4/15. $50
 
Carol Bradfield: Carol and Clay were also attendees at the Testa dinner. $25
 
Teresa Reyburn: bragged on Mike Gibson for "saving the day" and picking her up for our Rotary meeting after discovering that she had a flat tire. Way to go Mike!
 
Frank Ortiz (part 2): Frank forgot to mention previously, that he attended the "Million Dollar Brunch" sponsored by the Rotary Foundation. Our club received a couple of awards that he picked up while he was there.

Kevyn Walthers: Allan Hancock College is one of the top junior colleges in California and he didn't brag about it...$30
 
Mike Moats: had an anniversary that he didn't talk about..$30, then he started bragging about something else (didn't hear what it was about, but I did hear $48 :)
 
Mike Buhring: Mike and his wife has an upcoming wedding anniversary on the 29th and made no mention of it? $30
 
Shannon Seifert: The Prez had a B-Day recently and had no brag, so she picked an arbitrary number of $55 to fine herself
 
CHECK PRESENTATIONS
 
St Joes Glee Club: After treating us to a song, our Rotary Club presented the glee club with a check for $500 to help with their ongoing expenses.
 
 
SMV Boys & Girls Club: The club's CEO Jeremy Deming, was on hand to receive a $5,000 check from our club to help with their fundraising efforts. The donation also includes partial sponsoring of two of their major events.
 
PROGRAM
 
 
This week's program was presented by Ben Romo of the County of Santa Barbara's First Five program. The First Five program is a unique public organization, created by California voters in 1998 to invest tobacco tax revenues in programs that improve the lives of children prenatal through age 5 and their families. First Five invests funding and organizational capacity in the following two primary focus areas: Family Support and Early Care and Education. Mr. Romo explained the program to the membership and answered question afterwards.
