ANNOUNCEMENTS
1) Laurie Tamura: announced that the Rotary District Awards dinner will be happening on Saturday June 25 in Moorpark. Contact Laurie for more information or to sign up
2) Lee Carroll: Lee has been in contact with the Good Samaritan Shelter in regards to changing the date of our commitment to a weekday instead of our current date of every fourth Sunday. The club seems receptive to the change and more volunteers will most likely be available if the date changes. NOTE: Since our meeting Lee has spoken to the shelter and they have changed our date to every fourth Thursday of the month from 6:30 pm to 7:00 pm. Please contact Lee if you can be of service in the future.
3) Mike Moats: Anyone interested in attending an exciting Winetini function with Mike and Susan sometime in August (sorry, didn't write down the date) please contact him ASAP. $200 per couple is a heckuva great deal, but there are only a few slots open, so don't delay!!!
4) Shannon's Step Down: Saturday June 18 is President Shannon Seifert's step down party at the ever popular Hitching Post restaurant in Casmalia. Great food (thanks Terri) and outstanding entertainment (thanks Mark J) will be experienced by all who attend. I would say contact Tim Seifert for more information, but it already happened....so unfortunately for you, you're just out of luck :)
BRAGS
Jim Bray: Jim combined two brags (sitting too close to Staffel I guess??). #1-Jim and Denise recently celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary with a nice lunch in Santa Ynez. #2-After 40 years, Jim is finally retiring and getting out of the oil business for good. Stay tuned for future plans. $70
Mark Clarke: Taking his cue from Jim, Mark also announced that he would be retiring from the banking finance sector beginning July 29. He's also extra happy because he just found out that he and Linda are going to be grandparents!! Congratulations!!! $65
