First up was Matt Weaver, recognized for the Rotary party that was at his home. This carried no fine, BUT before he could sit down, Matt was asked about a mountain climbing trip he had planned. The climb was rained out; the fine was not– $50.
Next was Karen McNair, with her 2 year Rotary anniversary Bob was unsure if she had ever completed the Rotary IQ test. Karen was able to identify that JFK, Orville Wright and Cecil B. DeMille were all Rotarians. There was no fine after Bob clarified that the ‘$50 question’ only means that the fine is waved for a correct answer, don’t be expecting cash back!
Imy Dulake was up next; her daughter graduated as a DVM and is working at the largest animal hospital west of the Mississippi. Sounds like new doctors are worked pretty hard there. $75 to Imy.
George Fasching with the carwash locate in the middle of the Gold Line extension construction is offering customers an opportunity to watch the construction for free while their car is being washed, what a deal. The car wash is open during construction; Fine $25.
Immediate past President Eric Barter apparently disappeared following his year as our President. It was discovered that he went fishing in Alaska. Eric caught a 148 pound Halibut, no fish story, fine $72.
Aaron Rose was the master of ceremonies at the Arcadia Chinese Association dinner; photo evidence was presented to support the $50 assessment.
That was the end of the frivolity for the day. Be sure to attend the weekly meetings for a live version of the fun. Remember that the fines are a part of the way we fund the many good works of the Club. Thanks to those who ‘contributed’ this week.
