Paul enjoyed RYLA. He suggested we submit our meeting time on Meetup.com and Wework to entice new membership. He will check into it further.
Bob gave a great presentation: Be the Inspiration. Feel free to call or email him with any feedback, questions, or comments.
He gave each of us a sheet of paper with these 2 questions on one side;

It has always been known as a “stale, male pale” club.
What is 60/40?
60% - passion – Rotary feeds that passion
40% - self- financially, attend meetings, time
