BRAGS:
James Thomas: bragged $50 on his birthday and new position at Rabobank
Tim Seifert: bragged on his great vacation that involved a lot of work and a smidgen of relaxation. All in all, he had a good time......but it was only worth a $5.00 brag.
Mike Moats: 40 years ago Mike started his dermatology practice hear in Santa Maria. He was very proud of that fact and bragged a whopping $100. Thank Mike!
Randy Wise: was very excited to brag on the birth of his 2nd grandchild. Since he bragged $100 on the first one (3 years ago), he had to carry on the tradition and bragged that amount again (uh...just don't tell Mary about it)
Mike Buhring: Thanked the club for sponsoring he and his wife's trip to Toronto for the Rotary International convention. They had a spectacular time.

PROGRAM:
Toronto Rotary Convention
This morning President Buhring took the opportunity to tell all the members about his recent trip that he and his wife Michelle took to Toronto, Canada. He talked about all the meetings and sightseeing adventures that they participated in. Along the way, they met a wide variety of Rotarians that traveled there from the far corners of the world. Needless to say, Mike came back extremely enthused and ready to take on the coming year as our new club leader. Kevin Walthers is now our new President Elect and will attend his convention next year in Hamburg, Germany. We have an exciting year ahead and we all look forward to 2018-19 being one of the best years ever.
