BRAGS:
Dan & Peggy Blough
Dan Blough: (Rotarian of the Month) Dan is still the Rotarian of the Month, but he offered no free brags today. He did take some great photos though.
Tim Staffel: bragged on Rob Buchanan, Jim Peterson and Bob Hatch for doing a tremendous job during their tenure as Orcutt School Board members. He also threw a "shout out" to Kevin Walthers for his excellent leadership at AHC. Way to go gentlemen! $50
Jim Peterson: somehow jumped into the above conversation and next thing you know Judge Staffel dinged him for $50 (I still think it falls under the "brag" category) That'll teach you to keep your mouth shut Jim
Leonard Champion: took umbrage to the recent "above ground" underground newsletter by our own Andy Caldwell. To redeem himself he brought a dozen premium donuts to the meeting and presented them to Mr. C and company. All I know is that I had one for the road on the way out :) Thank you Leonard! $30
Tim Seifert: apparently he and Shannon traveled up north to the Redwoods and hugged a bunch of trees (I hope no splinters were involved). All I know is that it sounded like a nice relaxing time and I'm sure they enjoyed their time off (now unfortunately back to reality.....bummer). That was worth $50.
Laurie Tamura: bragged on Andy Caldwell for an overall fun time at last weeks COLAB dinner. She also mentioned Ted Ortega for the great room rate they received at the Chumash Resort afterwards. $50
Roberto Rodriguez: Thanked all Rotarians that helped with "Back A Youth" night and the "Celebrity Waiters Night" (where over $91,000 was raised for the Boys & Girls Club). He and his wife also took some time off and cruised down to Ensenada. They had a terrific time! $25
Frank Ortiz: bragged on the recent "Casa at the Club" fundraiser where our Rotarians accounted for approximately $5,800 in donations. Frank was proud to brag $50 for the club.
Gary Nemetz: tried to escape the meeting without a brag, but was outed by a fellow member before the session was over. Gary and his wife made their way to the New England area for an eight day fall "color changing" guided tour. They really enjoyed the experience and would recommend it to anyone interested in going (except for the driving in Boston portion). He gladly bragged $50 on the excursion.
FINES:
No fines this meeting. Don't worry, I'm sure that President Mike will make up for it next week.
