Don Chandler substituted for traveling President Kim Shrader at the Bellevue Regional Library. He introduced Rick Klobucher for the Invocation, who gave the Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi. Will Einstein greeted two visiting Rotarians, both from the Bellevue Club – Frank Buty, immediate past president, and Bill Ptacek, current president. We were honored to have them both attending our meeting.

Thanks especially to this group, who started it all!
