We welcomed visiting Rotarians Bill Ohe from the Riverview club of Edmonton, Alberta and Michael Bell of the Etoticoke, B.C. Rotary club. Our speaker Andrea Chisholm was a guest of the club.
1. President Bryant Powell inducted Earl Zumwalt as a new member of our club. Earl is transferring membership from his Canada club to ours. Welcome Earl!
2. Bill Burrows brought us the latest news of the day.
3. Bryant thanked Len LaFlesch for using his truck to provide a Rotary presence in the Lost Dutchman Days parade.
4. Jay Jones thanked Matt Ruppert for taking time from his busy schedule to attend PETS training as our incoming club President.
5. Mike Dungan squeezed some fine money out of members with his usual hilarious routine.
6. Murray Hiatt announced the Mountain Chordsmen annual babrbershop show on Sunday March 22 at 3 PM at the Leisure World Rec Hall #2. Call Murray at 480-671-7284 for tickets or see him after this week's meeting.
7. The pot was worth $449 today. The drawing worth $10 was won by Jay Jones but Jay missed the joker so the pot grows again. We are down to 35 cards.
Harvey Clark introduced our speaker Andrea Chisholm, owner of Amazing Dental Care in Algodones, MX.
Andrea is not a dentist herself but she employs four dentists in her dental facility in Algodones. Courtesy transportation for patients from the Phoenix metro area to Algodones for their dental appointments is one of the plusses of doing business with her. Her staff there is bilingual.
Andrea is a Kiwanian and the president of her club in Awatukee. Of course she took some grief from Sargeant-at-Arms Mike Dungan for this and also for advertising but she was a good sport about it all. You can find her in Facebook under Amazing Dental Care.
