Oo La La! Breakfast With Ciscoe!
Ciscoe Morris, master gardener and TV/radio personality, needed no introduction to most of his audience Friday morning. He recently retired from Seattle U as grounds manager, a post he’s held since the late ‘70’s. Now, he is devoting his time to broadcasting and making the occasional visit to Rotary Clubs.
It seems that Mr. Morris and the BBRC have one thing in common:- they like getting up in the morning! He jumped right in, going for the jugular with a pronouncement that “I like to work in the garden without using poisons.” He opened with a story called ”If You Have a Deer In Your Yard, It’s Like Having a 250-Pound Slug!” MORE
Sick List
Former BBRC member Frank Stillo is continuing his treatment for cancer. A call would be welcomed. Catch him at home (425-836-8623) or at work (425-644-8106).
Steve Lingenbrink was bitten with the Dread Mohocus, which started out as the flu and ended up as pneumonia. Get back on your feet, Linge. We need you back at your post!
 Brian Evison (L) and Phil Salvatori sign a card Friday for Dale Hemphill, who is still recovering from the effects of radiation treatments for cancer. Get well, Dale, and return to the fold soon!
Proud Retreat Tradition Continues
One of the most successful activities of the Bellevue Breakfast Rotary Club is the Annual Club Retreat. Dating back to 1988, the BBRC retreat attracts over 50% of the membership, which makes it truly an exercise in leadership by those attending. MORE
Thought for the Week

ADMIN CORNER
A reminder for members who receive make-ups from other clubs. All too often, the date of the make-up is not listed on the card, as well as the date you are making up for. Please make sure the secretary of the club you visit fills in the information. If they don’t, YOU fill in the missing dates. No dates, no make-ups. Clubmate Rules!
NOTICE: For those of you who have not paid your current dues, please review your billing. Our records show 30 members who have current balances with the quarter nearly two thirds completed. Any questions, please contact John Mix. Thank you.
