THE MEETING
Our esteemed President John Moore opened the meeting at Mulligans at 12:05 PM.  He welcomed members and guests and asked we share aloha with hugs and handshakes.  Joe Mitchell led us in the pledge to the flag.
Bless Young shared the inspiration from Ron Does.  Imagine walking through the woods and seeing many different trees of all shapes and sizes and accepting all without censure.  Then imagine walking through a crowd of people.  We tend to notice differences.  Imagine walking through a crowd of people without censure.
ACTS OF KINDNESS
John Moore asked who could tell us today what kindness had been noticed this past week.  Janet Walker had accepted company into her home as guests though she was super busy and was rewarded with lunch at Mama’s.  Joe Satenstein after paddling stopped to pick up a sack full of trash.  A guest talked of explaining the workings of a combustible engine to an 8 year old.  Gloria Lukens thanked Steve Moksnes for giving her some pictures she wanted.
OUR NEW TREASURER!
John Moore thanked Jay Satenstein for agreeing to be Treasure for our club the rest of the year.  He was presented a black baseball cap with large letters MR on the cap.  Black for power.
