5.  ROTARY MEETING LOCATION APP: Jack McRae, who returned from Hawaii with two cool flags for Pres. Mike, pointed out a great app for your phone or tablet,  telling you where the nearest Rotary meeting place is.   He found a couple unique ones, including Volcano, where he spent the meeting looking at the great view, and one where they had home-grown Maine lobsters.

6.  Pres. Mike welcomed our newest member, Swati Pudi,  who was nice enough to give each of us nice samples of the product she manufactures: promotional and club (Rotary) pins and broaches.
