Fines

    The next Rotary Moment will be given by Marc Sandler followed by the week after by John Scuccimarra  and Julie Sidon.

Club News

    The club would like to thank Don and Jeannie Sudbay for hosting today's meeting at their bowling center.  The food was great and the bowling was a wonderful mid-day break. 

     Shore Cliff and Rotary are joining forces to staff the kitchen at Open Door Pantry form 4:00 to 6:30 pm on January 28, February 25, and March 24.  The address is at 28 Emerson Avenue.  Please sign up with Shirley Conway for a date.

     A thank you was received from the RSVP and Senior Care for the $1,100 donation we made.

Winners and Losers... No one won the beverage of choice. Fran Mondello won the money, and Gaye Brown won the flowers. George Roark was the  winner in today's card raffle.

Speakers....  No speakers were scheduled today to allow members time to bowl.  A good time was had by all!

Lunch Rating...   Meals will be rated by 5 stars, with 5 stars being the best. Today we dined on stuffed shells  and salad.  The dinners at my table gave the food 5 stars.  When asked what would improve the meal the dinners suggested it was a nice change.
